    It takes a lot of strength from your behalf to deal with it. If you don't have it in you, you alone know if it's worth the effort. The best thing you can do is let her know she's not alone, and maybe convince her to see someone more skilled, like a psychologyst, maybe even help her pay for it. Like I said, you alone should know if it's worth it.

    Slap that hoe and tell her something motivational! Like "we have eyes in the front of our head to keep moving forward" or watch the anime gurren lagann with her. Its in english so just watch it online. That helped me lots when i was having problems seeing why i was still living.

    you're a wonderful friend for sticking by her side for so long.

    you have to understand that she's had these issues since before you knew her. if you were to "let go", and she followed through, it would not be your fault. feelings of guilt always happen when an untimely death occurs, but know that you gave it your all and loved her enough to try to help her. some people you just can't save.

    on the other hand, if she's been suicidal for that long and hasn't followed through with it, chances are she probably won't. and i think she could be saved through alot of time, patience, love and professional help.

    offer her what you can, but if you feel like giving up, then that's probably the best choice. you know in your heart what the right thing to do is. she is her own destiny.
