what do you do...

...when your best friend in the world is dying right before your eyes?

And your mind, no, your entire SOUL is screaming with every particle of your being to help her, dear God, get her help before you lose her, but you can't because

what's killing her

is the same demonmonster that's killing you?

  1. I cant even begin to suggest what you should do in that situation. I would say get her help, and maybe you might stumble upon some for yourself along the way. Or maybe not, it all depends of whether you wish for.

    If you know of something that could help your friend, I'd say do it. Maybe you wouldn't want someone to help you, but maybe she needs it and its better to get her help without her permission, and maybe she'll thank you later.

    Jeeze, even as Im typing, trying to help you and trying to pick something to say, I cant agree either way.

    Im sorry you are in such a tough spot.

  2. I know this must be tough for you. but try to imagine her situation...

    If someone [even someone who you would die for] said that you were perfect and that you were gonna kill yourself if you didn't get help [most of us have heard that before anyway]

    be honest... Would you actually listen to them and get help?

    It's impossible to help someone who won't help themselves...

    I don't know her, though. and I agree with LovelyBones, if you know of something that could honestly help her, do it behind her back.

    Even if she is fuming pissed at you afterward, at least shell be alive enough to have those feelings.

    I'm so sorry you're going through this, honey

  3. all you can really do is talk to her. try be there for her- she has to change on her own we all know others telling us what to do makes us want it even more. just be there for her there's nothing else you can do
