Okay... here goes. A friend of mine is suicidal or something, but not to the point where she has actually succeeded. She's been cutting for at least a year, she's gotten herself sent to the ER at least twice for it, and been to the psych ward 4 times AT LEAST. She was put into a foster home finally, but apparently that only helped so much. Her mother is an absolute *****, if you'll please excuse my language. Alcoholic, degrading. How can I get it through my friend's blockhead skull that she's human, to stop cutting, and to actually reach out to her friends? We've told her a thousand times that if she ever needs to talk to someone, anytime, we're there, but she's never called us until it's too late. I almost had a heart attack because someone said she had died in an accident, and unless its her mom saying it, I'm inclined to believe it. The reason: her mother pulled the stunt once. Heavy subject, but can anybody help us out? Any help/advice is greatly appreciated.
