VERY touchy subject for girls. I wouldnt confront her, but let he know you've noticed something off with her personality, and you care for her. Let her know that you are there for her if she needs to talk about anything, and nomatter what, dont give up on her. Even if she decides she dosnt want to be your friend, be persistant, loving and supportive. My girlfriend was going through a serious drug problem. She had just had a baby, and no one seemed to have noticed that she was severly suffering post pardum depression but me. I didnt confron her directly, but she was doing drugs while breastfeeding, therefore, giving drugs to her baby. I just hung around, never gave up. Tried to keep her distracted, told her I love her, let her know I was there if she felt like talking. Finally she felt comfertable enough to do the drugs in front of me, and thats when I told her what she was doing was not okay, for her or her baby. I insisted we get her help, and told her family (who wasoblivious the whole time). Just be there hon, you're a good friend, she islucky to have you!
