My dear friend is hiding...she is hurting deeply and confused and lonely and doesn't know which way to go. It makes me very sad and worried when I don't hear from her. I feel helpless.

(((((cantstopcrying))))) Sorry this is happening to you and your friend. All you can do is keep trying. When you get a hold of her try not to judge her. Just listen and try to pump her up in any way that you can. I am very sorry. Hugs for you and your friend.

I'm sorry about your firend. Give her some time. Hoepefully she will come around. Always be ready to listen when she wants to talk. Does she have any family who could check up on her? Can you get the polcie involed to check up on her and make sure she is ok. This is just a suggestion.

Thank you very very much. I have told her that when she is ready, I will be here to talk to her. I appreciate the hugs and I know she will (she truly believes no one cares).

John, thank you very much for the wonderful and caring thoughts and ideas. I will be checking in with her every day and if I don't get a reply I will have to move to something else I suppose. She has "hidden" before and I know it is her way of regrouping and figuring out how to handle things.

Ah, this is insightful. If I ever have a "real life" friend who behaves the same, I'll have to remember this might be a possible interpretation. Thank you!
