@eylah Im really sorry you're going through all this, if you haven't already, encourage them to call emergency services if they are ever unsafe. Please make sure to look after yourself too ❤️

@eylah You're such a kind friend, looking out as best you can for them, but it shouldn't have to fall entirely on you eylah. I know you might not like this suggestion, because of things that have happened in the past, but if you think there's a genuine risk of suicide, then you need to contact emergency services for them. I know that it might be difficult, but safety comes first. Or perhaps a better option is to at the very least get them to ring a support line like Shout, who can better assess and support them. And if shout thinks there's a risk, if needs be, would ring emergency services themselves.

And also what i want you to do if it's okay, is to take a minute, and for you to realise what a good friend you are being to them, reaching out to try and get support for them, even despite everything your already battling with.
