    my friend is going through a bad time at the moment. she is self harming and was open to me about it. i want her to stop, but feel that i can't on my own without telling anyone else. i don't want to tell anyone, incase she loses her trust in me, but i want to help her :( what should i do???

     this is so difficult and i kno that my friends wouldnt be the ones to tell an adult. i think that you shud talk to her and slowly start to bring into the conversation that wot she is is damaging her whole life and she needs help wiv that. say u will always be there for her no matter wot and say she needs to go to speak to some one about it say you will go wiv her or that you will tell her but that u will both do it in her own time. it is important she seeks professional help sooner rather than later so she can find other coping strategies. yh she will b scared but it is nothin to be worried bout they r there 2 support her and no one is gonna stop her cutting/burning whateva she is doin.

    just be there for her the best u can but there is only a certain amount u can do
