helping

My boyfriend is really struggling with wanting to stay alive. I don't know exactly what is going on because he says he doesn't know how to describe it. But I, myself, have been through a good amount of unfortunate events and I know it was scary. I didn't have much help so I don't know how to help him. If you have any suggestions I would appreciate it. #whatdoido

I had to tell my brother that I can’t help him. his problems are huge and overwhelming. I feel so bad but it’s self preservation.

Hello everyone!
Last year I met a girl. We can trust each other and we can talk about anything although sometimes it's difficult. We are psychologists. I really appreciate her as a friend. She has BPD and she selfharms. The other day I saw recent cuts and I don't know what to do or what to say to help her with it. I can somehow understand how she feels (I selfharmed long ago) and I'm not afraid of talking about it. But don't know if I can say "I'm sorry that you're feeling that way. I'm here" or "if you feel you want to do it, talk to me or send me a message" what's your advice?
Thank you

I would rather you tell me you CAN'T help, then say maybe or give me a glimmer of hope.
When I'm given false hope and then get let down, it crushes me, it makes me want to scream, it takes my breath away so I am gasping for air.

Please don't give false hope to me. The let down is worse then being told no or can't, at the beginning. #Depression  #falsehope   #Anxiety #ifyouwanttohelp #Cant #Hope #helping

I want to begin a project on helping those whose conditions are to the extent of not able to eat healthily, dress and get themselves groceries.
