Worried about my friend

    I'm really worried about my friend. Reciently she lost close family members in accidents and to cancer and it's killing her. She barely ever spends time with her friends anymore. Also she sometimes hears voices and knocking in her bedroom and other creepy stuff happens. She tells me about it but she thinks it might just be her imagination. I'm really worried about her and I honestly don't know what to do.

    Any suggestions?

    I think she needs to go and see the doctor and take it from there

    I can see why you are worried. When you lose a close family member sometimes you imagine things like their voice or smell nearby you. It's a natural process of grieving, however I would suggest maybe you go to the doctor with your friend ... even if you just wait in the reception. She may need someone to talk to after her consultation.

    Thanks everyone for your replies.

    I know she's already seeing someone for help. Other things apart from close deaths have happened my friend too. Really horrible things. She's been getting help for a good few months now.

    Another thing that's upsetting her is the fact that a girl she was best friends with for a while has started making new friends and kinda leaving her out. She told me this upsets her and to be fair I don't blame her since her ''best friend'' was practicly obsessed with her for ages. And now she's making her feel left out when she needs her most.

    I try really hard to be a good friend. I'm always there to talk to her and try not to upset her or let anyone else do so. I just feel like it's not enough.
