Self Harm
| at her again*
| The only alcoholic people in my life are dead so I doubt I can help...
| This was supposed to be in /u/... Sorry
| Im sorry to hear that too, but why is this on anime?
| Oh sry didnt see some post nemind
| Really sorry to hear. Sometimes if someone has a strong support system that they can vent and open up to it can help a little? All i can say is to just be there. Try to keep them distracted to take keeps the invading thoughts away
| Reminds me of Yuri from DDLC
| Tell her to get professional help. Look up phone numbers and forums/websites that will help and present them to her.
| Be her Jill
| Give her your love and support

This. Definitely be there and be supportive, but you're not a therapist and it's not healthy for either of you if you act as one.
| @OP Hear her out I think. Ask her out about her history, her feelings and stuff. Tell her you are there for her.
| OP here. Thanks for all the advice and support everyone. You g/u/rls rock.
| Make it clear you're there for her.
| Getting proper diagnosis helps...after recent suicide attempt (was alcoholic at time and self harmed, had long deep cuts all across my stomach) was diagnosed with ADHD (10 yrs of depression symptoms). It has been really life changing. I drank and self harmed because that pain made sense over everything else. It’s hard to understand feelings, but physical pain is easy to understand and that relaxed me. Proper diagnosis and medication helps. I couldnt ask for help, so none was given.
| Get her professional help regardless of what she says because they're professionals and not casul weebs

I can't tell if Op posted in the wrong board or is actually describing Yuri.
Of course, if Op is serious >>138774
| >>140559 OP here. I apologized for being in the wrong board up near the top of the thread and yes I'm serious.
