    I tried to kill myself on monday but couldnt follow through. Nobody found out but i had to tell a friend. I dont know how to shake the feeling that i just want to die. I rang samaritans but they weren't any help. I need advice on finding help and also what i can can do for my friend i feel terrible for putting this burdon on her but if i hadn't told her i might not be here right now to type this.

    I think you need to talk to someone professional. A good start would be with your GP - try to get an appointment in the morning. If there are any problems, just explain the basics and I'm sure something can be arranged.

    I think your friend will be OK with this. Friends are there for each other and understand that sometimes things will be tough.

    People have this problem every single day. Your not alone and yes those chatlines are most of the time absolutely useless. Go to your Gp. They are trained to help you and do not judge you.

    I once slashed my arm to bits (not the same I know) and the gp just gave me anti-scarring creams and powders and got me to go to see a professional and I have never looked to harm myself since. They will do what is best for you and would never tell anyone your personal details.

    Good luck and keep your head up, things are never that bad that you should feel you have to take your life. Talk to your friend, true friends will stick wit you through thick and thin:)
