I'm scared and need help.

Question

I just got off a call with my friend. Her parents suck. She can't handle it anymore. She kept asking what to do. And I don't know. I can't ihelp her. I wish I could. I wish I could just go to see her and take her away. I'm scared she'll kill herself. I'm scared her parents will push her off the edge. I'm scared I'm going to lose my best friend. I'm scared that it'll happen and I would not be able to stop it. She kept asking me to find a number who can help her. But, what do I give? Her parents are the worst.

At this point, you need to provide moral.suppoet and strength to her. Is there any way you could visit her and calm her down?

Forever_wanderer06 · Answer

I can't. Her parents cut me off. They took her phone. I can't enter their building without their permission.

Try comforting her. Make her feel like it's ok. Ask her to find a hobby or job or something that could help her divert her mind from this or evn away frm her parents if possible. And remind her all the other reasons she have to live.

Forever_wanderer06 · Answer

@Shockera, O have done all of this, for the past few months. But she can't do anything. Her receding mental health doesn't allow her to get up no matter how hard she tries.

Forever_wanderer06 · Answer

I want to send her a link and everything, but I can't can't contact her. Last time she fought with her parents, they broke her phone. I don't know what they'll do this time.

Forever_wanderer06 · Answer

She is at the tipping point, I afraid her parents don't realize that and are just tipping her over as we speak.

Forever_wanderer06 · Answer

I've supported her all this while, telling her that there is only nine more months before she find a college as far as possible. Today, she broke down. The worst yet. She kept screaming on what she's supposed to do because she can't do anything. And i can't do anything.

Shockera · Answer

Try reaching out to a female friend of hers who can go n meet her. Or a sister if she has any. N she will be ok. Her parents won't harm her much. Just reach out to someone who can go n see her.

Forever_wanderer06 · Answer

No, you don't understand. Her parents don't care. She has no one. Only me. And I live hours away from her. She's not going to be OK. She needs help. Help I don't know how I'll provide. I'm still underage. I can't do anything. She has not one adult in her life who cares.

Forever_wanderer06 · Answer

She has no friends, no relatives, no siblings who care. Every single person in her life has alway let her down.

Shockera · Answer

Just stay put. Give it sometime. N try reaching her out again after some while. For now you can only stay put. Or if you can go to her place to see her then well n good bt if not then just wait. N when u speak to her, try comforting her saying that it's nothing but just a phase. With time it will all pass.

Forever_wanderer06 · Answer

What is a phase? Her parents? Her parents are not a phase. They will always be assholes. They will always be her shitty parents. What if she doesn't realize that she has time? What if she doesn't want to wait for that long?

confessiondiary · Answer

what do you think is happening there rn?

Shockera · Answer

Phase is not her parents but this time that she's going through. And it will change, it alws does. Nothing is permanent. N no matter what we do, we can't stop or fast forward time. it flows on it's own speed, it's us who have to adjust accordingly. Just be there for her. give her strength n remund her that things will change soon. there's always a sunrise after the darkest nights.
