Suicide

Now hold on, I'm not looking to kill myself. I'm very happy with my life....well I am most of the time but this isn't about me. It's about my friend.

Last night, a good friend of mine finally texted me three days after she ignored me when she sent a text saying.

" I can't take it anymore. I'm going to kill myself. Don't interfere."

Obviously, she wanted me to interfere because she sent me that text, so when she finally answered, I was ecstatic that she was okay and didn't do anything too drastic. We both used to cut, and stopped a year ago.

So the reason I'm writing this is because I need help talking to her.

What else do I say other than "You're fine the way you are" or "You're parents are just a******* "

I've never dealt with a person so serious on suicide so I didn't know what to say.

Last night I got her to laugh and talk about other than suicide, but by saying just a few things about how stupid her parents are and how it's not her fault (her parents are cruel and blame her for everything and a lot more) I felt like I didn't say enough, like there is more I can say to her.

Please help, I'd really appreciate it.
