This is serious. I can tell if she is serious or not. I am in bad shape right now and do not want to type a lot. THe bottom line is, we both REALLY love eachother, Im always there for her, she knows that, she knows how much I care for her, I tell her positive things, things I actually mean, all the time. I tell her how special she is 1000 different ways. The problem is, she physically can't help how she feels (or mentally). She knows she shouldnt but she cant help it. I made her promise me she wouldn't do anything stupid, I had her in tears, both of us were in tears, and she doesnt know if she can keep the promise. She told me she can't see herself getting out of highschool. I know this sounds like the average teen thing. I am a very practical guy with very practical advice, I help a lot of people, I know things change after highschool and that you shouldnt worry about your future, I tell her these things in-depth all the time.

I dont want to make a big deal out of this and tell everybody and get everybody worked up, but I also don't want this to go un-said for too long. She told me she needed therapy, and that takes a lot to admit. I don't know what to do. I don't want to mess up.
