.....What should I do?

My friend, Lauren, has been bullied a lot more lately.There has been more harassment going on.She's receiving innapropriate texts and emails from people she most likely does not know.They include ones such as (and I actually copied and pasted this chiz) "Ur such a fucking waste of space.I wish u would just kill urself already and save evryone from seeing ur face evry day.Ur a fucking emo wuss and need to just die alredy." AND "How about u go nd try suicide, see how it works out, and then come 2 school dead? Tht wuld b wonderful 4 evryone including ur family! Oh wait! U dont have one with your dead brothr and achohalic mom! "

Now Lauren has been talking about suicide way more often.The other day she even sent me a text stating that she had a bottle of pills in front of her! I am EXTREMELY worried about her and even more worried that one day she's going to just kill herself.I know this sounds terrible, but if she died, I would kill myself as well.

Lauren is my best friend and is very much like me.We both get teased and bullied about the same things, so I am constantly telling her that this will pass and that the people bullying her are just big fat haters that can't get over themselves.She knows it's true, but being the soft girl she is, the rude comments get to her easily.

As stated previously, I am extremely worried about Lauren and am very worried that she will kill herself.Please tell me what I can do so I can make sure that she doesn't ever kill herself (or even try.) Any comment is most likely helpful and 100% wonderful.Thanks! <3 xoxo

(P.S.Lauren does come from a very broken household.She has also been cutting way more often since the texts and emails have become ruder.Also, Lauren has never shared her email or phone number with anybody (except me) so we do not know how they got it.)

Hey, look! More people in ridiculous clothing and clown makeup feeling ostracized from society!

Wonder why that is? Stop complaining about being outcasts if you're not willing to conform. You can't have both.

I think with help of police you can track them down. Or just rest the phone for a while and use your IPod or something. Or try something new to keep you busy. Another thing you can do is talk about it everyday or hang out everyday with her so she doesn't feel alone. DO NOT TEXT THEM BACK RUDE OR MEAN THINGS! Just text back something random like,"Mahogany Lemurs," or ,"Gush of Cheese,"
Hope this helped:)

I don't know her, I know what you've told me and the conclusion I came to was based purely off what you said. I still stick by it. She should grow up and accept that dressing 'differently' is going to cause a bit of a stir when you're around idiots, and if she can't handle the heat she should get out of the kitchen- it's as simple as that.

You basically said she speaks about suicide frequently and texts you obscene messages such as: "I have a bottle of pills in front of me". It's one thing to be in need of help and want assurance, but it's another thing to threaten suicide when she really has no intention of actually following through with it, she was clearly texted that to get an immediate sympathy card off you and gallons load of affection- therefore, she is an attention seeker.

You need to stop cuddling her and give her a slap, because all the attention you're giving her OBVIOUSLY isn't working. Why don't you try working on her confidence so she can stand up to people rather than let her drown in her own tears- or rather, your tears.

@Lava WTF?! She is not an attention seeker! Her and I are always the ones to sit in the back of the classroom, barely speak, and never get in trouble! Considering that you do not know her, I find it offensive that you would label her.

She has never liked attention and never will. She's as quiet as a mouse and the only thing that really stands out about her is her clothing, not her additude. She dresses differently from the mainstream people so that's why she's being picked on.

The only reason that I know that she's being picked on and she doesn't seek attention is when the kids at school bully both of us. She will also call me late at night CRYING because she's so upset!

Do not EVER call my friend an attention seeking emo ever again, you labeler! >.<

(P.S. I can and I WILL report you if you call her a name again.)

I read the first 2 paragraphs and got the drift. She's an attention seeking emo, who threatens to kill herself so people like you can 'aww' at her, since her mum's too busy drinking to do it. No doubt she's tried her attention seeking shit with others and the kids at school are sick of it. Some kids are horrible, get the fuck over it. If she's drawing that kind of attention to herself then it's her attitude you should be focusing on, not the disgustingly bad spelled emails she's receiving.

Shit happens for a reason.
