LaShonda is a 19-year-old student who has been feeling sad lately. Things just haven't been going her way. In fact, she told her friend, Rebecca, I can't stand it anymore. I'd just be better off dead.
Express her concern for lashonda and find a trusted adult or professional whom lashonda can talk to about her feelings.-when a friend talks about ending his or her life, its not something that should be taken lightly. rebecca should listen carefully to lashonda and provide her with support. however, she should also take the next step by asking lashonda if she would be willing to talk to an adult who could be of help such as an mtsu counseling services professional, professor, minister or her [rebecca or lashondas] parents.
