My friend just had a miscarriage. She is so sad and depressed because it is like her world just turned upside down. Her parents found out about it and is really angry at her, her x bf (the would be father) thinks that she is just making it up to win him back (he is a real a s s by the way), most of her friends and co-workers doesn't like her and talk smack behind her back, she was alone when she found out she miscarried, she feels like nobody would want her anymore since she miscarried, and she kept on telling me that she can't take it anymore. She also took 8 extra strength Tylenol capsules trying to overdose herself. Good thing one of her real friends told everything to her parents and started to watch over her (they didn't have any idea before). She is just a mess. What can I do and what can I say to make her feel better?

Just be there for her, thats all you really can do...let her talk to you as much as she wants...maybe you should suggest her seeing a counselor, or a neutral person to talk to. She should find another job...and try to move on as best as she can...she can only take it a day at a time..be there for her

Tell her that life is not ended. Think, if she would have realized her bf's attitude 10 years later? It would be then too late to start again. Ignore the people who doesn't have any support in her hard time. Actually they are not friend at all! And in the mean time discuss with her parent about her mental condition and ask them to behave polite to her.

It sounds like you really care about her. You should talk to her and go out with her to get her mind of what she thinking. You can change her idea of doing bad things to herself. Who cares about the other friends she is glad to have someone like you so talk to her tell her she is not alone and that you and her parents care for her and want to see her in their life's.

At this point you probably can't say anything to make her feel better. Your friend suffered a great loss. All you can do is be supportive and suggest to her that she go somewhere for counseling.

The only thing you can do is keep being a friend. Listen when she needs you to. Help her find a good therapist.
