Answer 1

TELL HER PARENTS. Tell every adult you know that can help such as school principal, school nurse, teachers etc. She's sick and needs help.

Answer 2

If she is your friend, and she moves away sounds like to me, she is cutting herself. She needs professional help. Even though it would sound like you are being a tattle tale, you really should tell someone. Tell the school counselor or her parents. You might consider (if she has siblings) telling her brother or sister. This is not healthy and could lead to something very tragic. The fact that she moves away tells me that she is probably ashamed of her behavior but like an addiction, a person that cuts themselves get to a point where the physical pain covers for the emotional pain. Which is usually what leads to addictions of all sorts. (The inability to deal with ones own feelings thus trying to cover them up). Talk to your friend. You say this is your "best" friend, a best friend will do whatever it takes, whatever the costs to help. Your friend really needs encouragement but mostly she needs help to discover why she is cutting herself in the first place. If she isn't cutting herself, then you have just proved that you care enough to ask.

a friend of mine does the same thing and i suspect her of doing this because her mother died a few years ago by cancer...and i feel bad 2... try to talk to her when she is pushing u away cuz she is doing this because ,maybe, she thinks that u will not trust her, or help her, ... if we from answers don't answer ur question or if u don't like the answers u should go to your school counselor.... or try to be patience...if u are afraid that u will lose her try to spend more time with her..make her believe that she doesn't need to do this, that u will miss her so much... tell her u care about her and that u don't wanna be alone from now on... try to talk to her about why is she doing this cuz this will help u a lot.. knowing why she does this is good cuz u will know what to say...and if u don't know what to say...ask again here on answers...
good luck with ur friend and take care of u and best wishes 4 her...

Answer 4

Hi. First of all I know its kinda depressing handling problems all at once. But, my advice is to talk to your best friend and tell her that there are TONS of good things in life that she will be missing if she just ends it. Discuss with her that she has to be strong and what shes doing is hurting her, other people, her family- and especially you! If the conversation still doesnt get to her, then I suggest you should start telling a trusted adult(s) about your BF's problem. Another solution is to maybe make plans to have fun like go shopping, swimming, going to parks or having sleepovers while eating chocolate (take it from me, chocolate relaxes ;)lol). I hoped I helped you. Good luck to you and your friend!

Answer 5

I had a friend that was like that. It drove me crazy. So she threatened to do it, so I walked over opened the drawer, and handed her the knife. I said if you're so god damn tough, then do it right here! She dropped it and said, "you're not a best friend!" The next time she threatened to do it I called 911. Cops came over and ambulance. She never did it after that. I wasn't going to take her bullshit, you don't ever put someone you care about in that situation, if you honestly care about her then you'd tell her parents, or call the cops on her for her mental issues. It's just going to get worse.

Homework and boys are no reason to cut your body up, how pathetic. Only time I ever harmed myself was after I was raped, then I realized that no man is worth it, and I said never again will I shed a tear or drop of blood for someone so worthless, a rapist.

There are so many kids these days cutting their bodies up for attention. It's an epidemic. Tell her parents! It could save her life.

Answer 6

be tough with her and tell her that you love her but she can let you see or you will bring her family in which is a good idea anyway.if you know for a fact that she is hurting herself call someone to get her some help.police station would be able to tell you who to call in your area.she will be mad and probably hate you at first but when she get's her mind in a better place she will know you did it out of love.if she is mutuilating her body next time she might try to make sure she does it right so the sooner she gets help the better.good luck

Answer 7

Slap the trick... lol absolutely everyone like that want is interest or use it as the thank you to get out of dealing with fact and the **** it throws at you... maximum human beings have the ability and braveness to handle it... something are stated as little emo bi***es.... talk over along with her and counsel her into applying some goddamm uncomplicated experience.... be a sturdy chum and constantly enable her knw that there continues to be all form of sturdy issues left in existence and that doing something like that's in basic terms a infantile way of warding off them.... Sorry for being so tough... yet i in basic terms think of emo human beings are stressful as hell... desire all of it seems sturdy...

Answer 8

I would talk to your school counselor and let her/him take it from there..this way the school counselor can talk to her and contact her parents taking you out of the situation. Definitely ask the counselor not mention to your friend or her parents that it was you that came to them, and I am sure they will keep it confidential. Good luck you are a good friend..

Answer 9

Does your friend go to church? Have you asked her about her problem? Try to find these things about her before you decide to do anything else. Remember, time is of the essence. If she can't talk to family, you may be her only hope.

Answer 10

You need to talk to her parents if that is possible if not express your concerns to the school counselor.The teenage years are really hard because people can be so cruel to one another.She might need to be put on anti depressants to help her cope. but the worst thing you could do is nothing.

Answer 11

If this is real call 911 but you are pretty composed on your keying to have a friend with a cut wrist.
