writes:( Kinda long)Im 14 years old and so far my life is going okay. Well that was until today anyway. My best friend *Sara got dumped by her boyfriend and thats where things took a turn for the worst. My friend * Jay was there when she was on the phone to him so we just left her. about 10 minutes later we saw her sitting on the pavement and she threw her mobile across the road. After picking it up we could see that she was hurt but she wouldn't talk to us. We fallowed her cause she wouldn't talk. She knew we where there but she didn't care. She tried cutting her wrists on barbed wire and anything jagged that she could find ( luckly she didnt find anything sharp enough). She told us in the end that she was dumped. She has took it really bad but she won't talk. We went for another friend * Emma and she also saw how Sara was being. We promised Sara that we would keep the fact she had a boyfriend secret as her mum and brother would tease her. We told her mum about the self harming and about her ex boyfriend on the fone as we couldn't when we were at Sara's as Sara and her bro wouldnt leave the room so we went back to Emma's and phoned her mum.Her mum is going to talk to her and im still really worried about Sara. So is Emma and Jay. We have knowen her for about 10 years so were in shock that she couldnt talk to us and the fact she tried to kill herself.I dunno what to do as im Seeing Sara tomorrow and i don't know what to do to make her feel better or what say to her.Help??????

 That sounds awful, she is definitly in a lot of pain from the breakup... how long was the relationship because if it was long it will probably take her a while before she's happy again. Instead of trying to get information out of her and asking her lots of question about it just give her space. When she is ready she will talk to you. In the mean time you can remind her that you are there for her and want to understand her pain. Suggest going out and doing new things and meeting new people. Anything to keep her from sitting alone in her room crying about it, she may not want to at first and respect that but after a week you should probably be a little more convincing, get her out of the house and doing things. Hope you're friend feels better soon :)
