I'm 16 years old and I have a friend who has a history of severe depression when she was 14, she ended up in hospital for a little bit and she was on medication for a while as well. She used to self harm quite badly then but she stopped about a year ago.
I'm scared that she might be doing it again now. She seems quite depressed over the past month or so, she's really quiet and she doesn't come out as much as usual. I've asked her if anything's wrong and she says she's fine, but I know she's not. She's being made fun of a lot at school (I've mentioned that in a different question) and she gets really upset quite often as well. I'm worried that she's started to self harm again, she's been wearing long sleeves all the time like she did last time and she just seems quite depressed again.
What can I do to help her? I don't want her to end up in hospital again like last time.
