Whats the best way to help someone suicidal?

Question

This is about my friend. She doesn't know I know this, but she attempted suicide. I don't know what to do. Comment please.

Answer

Get her pro help. You’re not equipped to talk someone through this. Do talk to her and be there for her, but also bring in someone who is trained in dealing with this. It’s too serious to let it rest on your instincts in conversation. I regret not telling someone about my friend who told me she was contemplating suicide years ago. She didn’t do it, thank god, but our friendship didn’t last because I didn’t talk her through it in the right way.

Answer

Oh wow. If she’s getting help, I don’t think there’s any need to bring it up just yet, it might make her uncomfortable. Wait for her to come to you. But if she’s not getting help, definitely say something. She might not be as lucky next time if she attempts it again.

Answer

Meant to hit talk to them,

Answer

Talk to her, make sure she knows you're there for her and you love her and don't wanna lose her. Talk to her parents to get her help also.

Answer

Show them that you are there for them. Talk about it openly. If they hear you talk about it they will be much more inclined to talk to you when struggling.
