Answer #1

IF what u’r saying this time is true – you & her need to talk with a pastor – do you either go to church? if so go to the pastor, if not find a friend who goes to church and go to that church and tell him the situation – the reason I SAY pastor is he/they will keep what you say CONFIDENTAL – OK then take it from there

Answer #2

If she’s suicidal, you need to tell someone. Yes, I know, it seems unbearable to betray her confidence in that way but someone needs to know. Self harm is a symptom of something else, like depression, or anxiety, it is a persons way of coping when they dont know what else to do. Problem is, that it usually indicates something pretty awful is going on. And she needs to get help for whatever that is. And a good friend is priceless, but you’re not trained to help her. You’re also emotionally involved. She needs to talk to a counselor…
