How do i help someone who wants to kill themselves and they refuse to see a professional?
I have a friend who is having suicidal thoughts, she has problems at work, her mom and sister are making her feel like garbage by putting her down, she also has problems about letting go of a guy who is very bad for her and does not even respect her. She tells me that she can't get over the guy because she loves him too much. Her dad used to beat them up when she was young. I don't know what to do because she refuses to see a professional to talk about her problems and she does not want to tell me everything that is going on even when i try to tell her that i won't judge her. I don't know what to do, can someone please help me.
Answers:
There is an organization called suicide watch. Look them up give them a call and speak about your friend. They have there ways of checking up on the person and may even reach out to her. You are not losing out by giving them a call, that is what they are there for. If you can't find their number speak to a social worker who may have other contacts. good luck :-)

tell her about Jesusanyone seen the old navy commercial, are normal adults that skinny?
talk to her about god , that will open her eyes a little,just be a friend. be there as much as you can. get other close fiends or family you both trust involved. if its really bad, go to the doctors for advice or your local mental hospital who could admit her for a couple of weeks, voluntary. just think of it as a holiday for her where she can get her problems sorted.

Dear Friend,My experience, you have to show her a way that she can heal herself mentally, dont try and force her to see a shrink, humans by nature dont like being told what to do, they like to be shown how something works and then they enjoy doing it themselves. If you show her that she can can heal herself just start the ball rolling and she will do the rest herself.
Please bear with me this is leading somewhere!!
Example: I suffered from post traumatic stress disorder, depression, abusive childhood, alcohol abuse (not alcoholism) etc etc. I drank to knock myself out at night for 7 years, from an early age.
Then I had a bad AIDS scare. That was the cherry that broke the camels back. I worked in Africa as a volunteer and one day infected blood from an AIDS victim got into a cut I had in my arm. I had to wait 6 months for the final all clear.
The thoughts that went through my mind thoughout that time: like from being shunned by friends and neighbours, disowned by my family, people scared to touch me for the rest of my life, no sex, dying early etc etc. put an emmence pressure on me and gave me God knows how many panic attacks and turned me if not already now into a full time recluse.
The day of the final test results, the day that changed my life, I had my last cigarette as a free man and walked into the clinic shaking like a leaf with a friend of mine. The doctor was not there but there was a nurse sitting behind a desk who informed us that the doctor was at his cousins funeral and would be half an hour late. Every so often the nurse would look up at me and nervously look back down with pained look on her face and without saying anything. That was the worst moment of my life, my friend noticed what the nurse was doing and went up and asked her for the results but the nurse informed her that she did not have the authority to give them out. So at that point I was full sure I was positive. I went outside by myself and started chain smoking.
But after the third I stopped and told myself not to be afraid, I decided to face those demons that had haunted me, nearly driven me insane over the last 6 months. Every one of them,one by one and told them to F.off that I was not afraid and that no matter what the result was or what people thought of me that I would live my life with no more fear. That unless I was happy I might as well kill myself here and now because life was not worth living like this.
By the time the doctor arrived I was cool as ice. The results turned out to be negative but I did not even smile as I got them, as I had decided no matter what it was not going to make a difference on my life, I just thanked him and walkd away, my friend could not believe how cool I was and later I found out she blabbed to a lot of people what had happened but even their new high opinion of me did not matter.
That was the start of my change in life. I have been for a few more AIDS tests due to employment stipulations for working with overseas companies and been as cool as the first one, people look at me with open mouths sometimes the way I march in to the doctors reception and demand the rsults of my AIDS tests in full view of the public. As a result of this first experience I have faced all the rest of my demons that had haunted me before with the help of a shrink and am confident will face any new ones that come along.
The reason I have told you this story my friend is that somehow you have to find a time in life that your friend was scared and overcame her demons. Then tell her that the scariest demons are the ones that lurk just under the surface of her subconscious and that once she faces the and brings them to the surface she will be able to defeat them BELIEVE ME!
I was a coward running and hiding until that day. Now I am full of bravado I started my ball rolling slowly but once it was rolling I got it up to 60 mph and havent looked back. I just wish somehow I could show people a video of my live. By the way I still drink and party with moderation and I am happy for the first time in my life. I hoped this has helped you somehow.
Your friend,
Buddy
