well a lot of my friends cut themselves and i used 2 .. u just gotta let your friends no that they can talk 2 u and that your there for them. Let your friends no that they are not the only 1's feeling the way they feel and that you love them ... thats what got me 2 stop !

Hun, Just be there for them. Thats all you can do now. You can only do so much. Make sure they know you love them and want to help. Thats all you can really do. After all you only human. Take care. I hope this helps at least a little bit.

ya know, my mom told me a story once.
idk,be itll help.

the turtle and the rabbit were walking dwn the road, and suddenly, the turtle trip, and fell over upside down. His good friend the rabbit quickly offered to help, but the turtle replied stubbornly "No, I am stuck forever, surely i will die here"
the rabbit left him for a while, and returned the next day, offering help again for his poor friend. Again, the turtle refused, and replied as he did the last time, sure that he was beyond help, and sure to die. However, on the third day, A big steam roller came down the road. Scared out of his mind, the turtle quickly flipped over and sauntered off the road, to join the rabbit who had been watching.

Well, ya know, a lot of times, if a friend in need wont accept ur help, the only way for them to do it is themeselves. But always offer to help. Dont feel bad if they dont want help. Dot worry. Just help if you think you can, always try, but keep an eye on them if they decline ur help.

(sorry, i kinda got carried away and wrote a lot)

I found out long ago that most people who say to others that they are going to kill themselves usually do it. By that time there's not much we can do. Its too bad that DS doesn't require home addresses or IP address for the computers people use. Once I had a friend. I knew him personally. I moved and then his world went to shit. His name on DS was Jinxys. You can look him up. I tried to help him. Mum even sent a policeman to see him. He was dead already. I cried for a long time. Now I avoid suicidal people. Last time it hurt too much.

Do not give up on them. They need you more than ever. Try to understand what it is that they are going through and help them fix it. The less people that care about them just makes it worse. Without my mom and my friends I would have made that permenent decision. Just let them know that the reason they have these feelings is because they care so much. If they didnt care and the reasons they want to kill themself didnt hurt this bad then that is what would really make living not worth it.Theres beauty in pain. Dont tell them that it will get better cause thats not always true tell them its only true if they make it, I dont know what their problems are, they could have made it that way for themselves or others might have, just let them know that they have to be optomistic they have to look on the brightside, it might seem in possible but they have to start making good and wise decisions, and that they are gonna hurt a lot of ppl that truly care for them and that ending your life is the easy way out, living is the hard part but if you give it time things have a way of working out if you dont give up and try hard.
good luck
