I posted a question earlier about this but did not get much of a response. I'm worried about a friend of mine, I know she is depressed and have not seen much improvement with her within this past year. She feels worthless, ugly, and like she's not doing anything with her life. Merely a waste of time. She's 22, she's never had a boyfriend, and I'm worried she's never going to experience the things she deserves. I know she's feeling this way because she's told me. I've been depressed before, for about two years, and am finally pulling out of it, so I understand what she is going through. When I was depressed, I often thought about my death and how I could fake an "accident", but never seriously contemplated going through with any of it. Anyway, what I'm trying to ask is how can you differentiate when someone is depressed and when it's something more? I'm worried for my friend, I understand her helplessness and I feel like I am stronger than her so I'm worried. What are signs of someone who's suicidal? Please answer!
