Usually when some one is really intent on doing this then they say nothing about it and just do it ,,,, This person is beyond help before they actually do it anyway because they aren't calling for help of any kind or in any form ,,,, The fact that your friend talks about it is a good indication that she is indirectly or subconsciously calling for help and understanding ,,,, As one person said ,,,, Take her seriously ,,,, Very seriously ,,,, Don't wait to think about this ,,,, Talk to her parents immediately with out fail ,,,, she's probably going to be upset with you but you would be doing the right thing ,,,, You can always deal with her being upset with you later ,,,, The only excuse you could use is that she is your friend and you value her friendship and would hate to loose her ,,,, Let that sink in for a while and see what happens ,,,, If it comes up later that she would say that she can't trust you any more then just reply that she's can trust you with anything else other than talk about suicide ,,,, If she's mad at you then just give it time ,,,, She should eventually come around but for now ,,, get on the phone to her parents ,,,,, right now ,,,,immediately ,,,, don't wait ,,,, You might be sorry if you don't ,,,,,, Yoda told you this ,,,,, get to the phone ,,,,,

I can't say that I've every considered suicide. But, if she's young and experiencing her first bumps in the road, then tell her that life is a learning experience. No 'hard time' is a death sentence. And those difficult times make poignant memories in better times. There's nothing like a good 'remember when' story. They can definitely get you through the next rough patch.
I was in the Marine Corps years ago. Of all the good and bad memories of my time in the Corps, my most vivid one is of sitting in the chow hall at Marine boot camp. It was during Christmas. I had gotten there two weeks earlier. I can still picture those fourth phase recruits, their boots bloused, their Woolly Pulleys showing beneath their Cami tops, their chest out. The fourth phase-rs were about to graduate. They seemed to move at only a double-time pace. They could turn their heads and 'enjoy' their extra 3 or 4 minutes of chow time. I could only look straight ahead and take in whatever passed within my field of view. I must have looked like a pitiful first phase recruit. Because, a fourth phase recruit walked behind me and quickly said, "stay motivated. It does get better." Although I couldn't turn around to see which one of them had said it, I can hear those words clearly to this day.
And, those are great words to live by. "It does get better." Nothing is more than just a bump in the road.

Whatever you do, take her seriously. Call her folks, her minister, your folks, anyone and everyone who will help her. She's apparently reaching out for help and needs you to help her find it. Keep telling her how important she is and that she's loved. Please try to convince her to call a suicide hotline in your area. This time of year is very high in suicides and depression. Don't wait!!

If she has parents tell them right away. If not then tell someone else close to her that can talk to her. Call a suicide hotline. Tell a councilor in school...she needs to talk to someone that can really help her.

You have to contact her parents. If for some reason you don't think that is a good idea you need to contact an adult that you trust a teacher or a guidance councilor. And do it fast take this seriously, please don't try to take care of this yourself you can't get help please.

It's a cry for help...... tell her parents and if they blow you off tell a teacher.... co-worker.... supervisor... if all else fails dial 911 (though that will likely blow the friendship)
