Hey Daryla,

Like Jessica said, I want to emphasize one thing: this isn't your fault. And I totally understand that you want to help her. At the same time, I'm getting the impression from your post that you really don't know her that well and aren't the best of friends, so I would try not to come on too strongly.

I've been in fairly similar situations in which I didn't know the other person very well, and what I did was send them a message on Facebook. Really take some time to think about what you're writing. Something like "Hey, I've been seeing your statuses and I'm a bit worried about you" is a good way to start off. Tell her everything positive you think about her, forgive her for anything she may or may not have done to you, let her know that she can talk to you and that you're there for her.

And I definitely agree, try to get her to talk to someone else about her self-harm. I know from personal experience that the more people there are behind you supporting you, the easier it is to get through and rise above it. I also agree with what Jess said about pointing her to TeenHelp if you think it would help her at all.

Good luck. I hope everything ends up okay.
