James 2128, I have to agree. If a person does not want help you cannot rescue them. If they made up their mind to do themselves in cause they see no way out, you cannot convince them otherwise. I am sorry your friend is going through this. Pray for her, that is all i know to do. I have had relatives commit suicide before. I understand the ramifications of it. Just pray for her. This past Friday, 4 Dec. my friend Overdosed tried to commit suicide. ended up in the emergency room with ambulance and the cops. I am glad she is alive. I worry about her too, but I tell her it is selfish to do so. And i told her I loved her. You have to go with that. tc (((hugs)))
