Wow! This is a tough question!!

I would a) walk away. If this was my true friend, I would hope she would have told me of her plans. I guess, I would have done all my pleading and begging prior to her going through with the act. I would have to respect her wishes.

On the flip side, what if I would not have walked in or walked in after the act was committed?

But then again, I might want to try to stop her because of the pain she would cause for those of us left behing. But then again, she may be escaping from unimaginable pain.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WOULD DO!

e.
causing a commotion might make them more jittery and mad, but confronting them more quietly and saying why are they doing that while taking away whatever they are using to hurt themselves. then get them help because nothing in this world is rough enough to kill yourself.
