greenbelt_girl15 Posted May 13, 2005 Posted May 13, 2005 I don't quite know what to say.I don't know if you're a christian or not but there are several things the bible says that will help.1.pray for and love your enemies.Ok so "c" isn't quite your enemy but from what you've said she's most definatly not your friend.What some people find hard to understand is that you can love someone without liking them.Even if you don't like this person as a friend you can still care about them and try to help them.2.Pray!A little prayer always does some good.P.S.I'll be praying "c" and if you don't mind I'll pray for you also. God has not given us a spirit of fear, but a spirit of love, a spirit of power, and of self-discipline.2 Timothy 1:7
The Phenom Posted May 13, 2005 Posted May 13, 2005 Also, try giving her some time to think and chill, as this works.Does she get time to herself? If not, then this might be causing some of her problems. Remember it's important to be social -and- take some time out occassionally.
aefibird Posted May 13, 2005 Posted May 13, 2005 I'd really recommend going back to the guidance consellor or another school staff member and get them to listen to you about "C". Keep 'bugging' them if you have to - explain to them what she is like and tell them (repeatedly) about her suicide threats. If you tell enough staff members about her then maybe the penny will finally drop somewhere and they will be able to help her.Also, you say she is involved with church? Maybe you could contact her minister/priest/church leader and explain the situation to them. If she is genuinely suicidal then they may be able to help her too.Good luck with this difficult situation. "Was it really worth it? Only time and death may ever tell..."
