Bearchic 34 is right - you cant control another persons decisions - you can encourage them to get help - you can talk til you're blue in the face - but in the end its their decision and you are not responsible for that -

you can only do what you can - listen - encourage them to get help - try to show them that there is hope - talk to anyone you can - site admin - firends family - ask them to contact friends and family or a help line or go to an emergency room or call an ambulance - I know this willl be stuff you ahve done or thought of - so I dont know why I am posting this - you are not alone in this - take care of yourself too ok -
