You sound like a great friend for giving her our number as a resource and continuing to try to help her. If she is hesitant to call or text us right now maybe you can start with giving her these online resources:

www.selfharm.net (http://www.selfharm.net/)
Also, please give her our website: www.2NDFLOOR.org and maybe she can start by posting on our message board like you did.
If you feel like talking about this further you can always give us a call or text us too. Our number is 888-222-2228 and we are here 24/7. Good luck with your friend.
