idk how to say this, but i saved my friends life yesterday. (TRIGGER WARNING)
TRIGGER WARNING
so, my friend broke her leg and is in a wheelchair, and she needed to go to the nurse. so, i pushed her down there. in the hallway, she showed me bandages-wrap things on her arms that were to keep her from picking her scabs and from self harming.
when we got there, probably only 5 seconds after she told me that, she told the nurse she was feeling sad, and that’s why she was there. i sat down and told her she can tell me anything, that i would always be there for her, and that i will never judge her. after around 15-20 mins of talking, we had to go back to class.
as i got up, she complemented my necklace, so i gave it to her. in the hallway, she told me something along the lines of that if i didn’t help her or say those things about her, she would have committed suicide that night.
i really don’t know how i can support her other than being there for her. can someone please help? i would really appreciate it❤️

Hi Jay. It was really nice of you to help your classmates. I'm really proud of you for everything support. Idk... I think it's going to be comforting if you told her that she may call you when she deal with impulses. However, it is also advised to remember, honey, that contacting emergency services is needed when things gets serious.
