yesterday it was only light with scissors but she says shes gunna do it harder with a knife because this boy wont go out with her and already has a girlfriend. she said its because he wants to punish herself for liking him, but near the end of our convo she said she would do it until he stopped dating her. she's not the type of girl to attention seek. i'm really worried!! i would call child line but i lost my phone and i'm not using the home phone!! i just dont know what to do!

try to be protective to her... remember that if you have something that you didn't achieve. in other words, its not the end of the world... but it will be a new beginning to go on. You'll never know that there is a good luck way up you ahead, try to tell her... "if you kill yourself early, its soooooo wasteful to take those good luck of you up ahead..."
but as her friend, be a good peer to her and protect her from hurting herself ^^

Tell her to seek help. She needs to talk to someone she trusts. If you truly think she is trying to kill herself, the best thing you can do is call 911. You need to speak with her and find out what is bothering her, and how she can work past it. Make sure she knows you're there for her and be very supportive. Try to get her to promise you that she wont cut, or that she'll call you if she feels the need to so you can stop her. It's a destructive and addictive habit and the sooner she stops the better. If she needs to, she should talk with a psychologist. It can help her work through her problems, and can help her in the long run.

If you arent calling from your home phone beccause you don't want your parents to find out, then do it anyway. If you really care about this friend you need to get her some help. If you dont want to call a child line, try talking to her parents, in the long run she will thank you for it. Or you could just try talking to her, but i really suggest you get some help from an adult. Trust me, you can't fix everyone, and she may get mad at you for trying to help, but she needs it, and if you really are her friend, you will do anything in your power to keep her safe.
Here is a list of annonymous hotlines you can call to get help about your friend.
Suicide Hotline: 1-800-SUICIDE
(1-800-784-2433)
LifeLine: 1-800-273-8255
Try these.
I hope I could help...

She might claim that his guy and his girlfriend are the problem, but it wouldn't affect her to the point of self-harm if she didn't also have much more serious problems, such as depression, or something more serious.
Although people who cut are more likely to eventually commit suicide, the cutting itself is ANTI-SUICIDE. I can tell you from experience that cutting is the only way she can escape the mental agony she's in.
You don't have to call anyone. Tell her mom, her dad, or guardian. Tell YOUR parents if you feel you can't talk to hers. Nothing is more important than getting your friend help, even if it makesher furious at you.

It sounds like she's is going to try hurt herself. The sad thing is, you're asking when she's said she will. You need to tell her parents this before she intentionally hurts herself, or worse. She sounds depressed, as well. I don't know why you won't use your home phone, but this sounds like a situation where you need to.

Hun, get up off your butt and call Kids Help Phone. Also talk to her parents and guidance counsellor. She will be mad at you, but it is for her benefit. She sounds like she is developing depression and is suicidal. Please do her a favour and help her out by talking to someone you care about before it gets really serious.
It will be worth her anger...which would you rather...a couple days of anger from her for telling, or her life saved?

You need to get her some help. Tell someone, so she can get the help she needs, she may be sick. She needs help. Counseling is good for the soul. If you are a true friend you would get her some help. What she is doing is endangering her life, she may hate you at first but she will respect you for it later!

I think you should tell your friend that she is being rather selfish. She can't have him, and she has to stop thinking about him.
You need to tell her that he doesn't love her, he loves someone else... and if she truly loved him she would let him be with this other person.

tell her parents about it. it's more or their problem not yours. don't feel guilty. just keep on advising your friend. and hello? they just stopped dating. there isn't any 'special' thing goin on. right? girl, don't worry much. your friend is at the right age. she should know what to do.
