[quote=Anonymous]I've seen a lot of depression and suicide/suicide-attempts in my life. Your DD should approach your RA. Most likely, they will approach in a way that doesn't reveal someone has noticed an issue. But even if not, your DD's concerns about her roommate getting mad at her shouldn't outweigh health and safety. This is life, and it's hard. And a lot of difficult things happen in college. You DD will feel worse if something worse happens to her roommate. If the roommate is sleeping this much, they have likely missed classes including at least a couple where there is attendance (e.g. discussion sections). That could be an avenue the RA pursues. It's also possible the residential staff have noticed, which could give your DD some relief. I would gauge reaching out to the mom directly on the basis of how she's likely to react. You know her the best.[/quote]
