Scotty_Rogers 04/07/17 2:33:14 AM #1:	She's diagnosed as bipolar, is getting special treatment in her college, tells me she often thinks about suicide (apparently she wrote a note in December) and from what she told me today, she got sexually assaulted in college. Honestly, I'm very concerned. I want to tell someone, but she's adamant that I don't, so I feel that I would be "betraying" her. Seriously, though, she needs help. What should I do? --- Sad! <cite>Scotty_Rogers posted [p:876710409] in My sister ...

They need to check on her and make sure she isnt a danger to herself or others. --- The night brims with defiled scum,and is permeated by their rotten stench. Just think.

apolloooo 04/07/17 2:48:10 AM #4:	Convince her to get help. Be with her. Thats awful qhat happened to her. What about your parents? Family? And no i dont think letting other people know (especially like others that can and willing to help) is bettaying her. Betraying her is to go silent and let her suffer with no help at all. Sometimes you need to go against someone's wishes to help them. Wish u luck scotty. --- http://i.imgtc.com/iJyp6bF.png http://i.imgtc.com/ZBw36Qh.png Thanks for the peeps that made the pics <3 if i make typos it means i am on phone <cite>apolloooo posted [p:876710865] in My sister ...

gunplagirl 04/07/17 2:52:29 AM #8:	Don't call the police on her. They always make things worse. Try talking with her and try to get her to a therapist or counselor on a regular basis.

MabusIncarnate 04/07/17 2:54:48 AM #9:	Tell someone. Screw the "betrayal" she is crying out for help, and trusts you to help get it for her. If she wasn't seeking help as her number one priority right now, she likely wouldn't have spoken to you and the scenario might be, uh, much worse if you follow... Get professional help for her immediately. She will forgive you in the long term. This isn't a recommendation, this is pretty much what you need to do right now. There shouldn't be further thought into the matter. --- Ten million dollars on a losing campaign Twenty million starving and writhing in pain <cite>MabusIncarnate posted [p:876711066] in My sister ...
