You've been here for over four years and you're complaining because no one has been "constructive"? Fine, here's "constructive": if you're really worried about her, get someone professional involved. You won't be able to "fix" her, only she can do that. So stop posting about it on a fvcking MESSAGE board and see about getting her help.

That's pretty direct, but he's right. That's your answer in a nutshell.

She's obviously depressed. When I say depressed I mean clinically depressed. As others have said, suggest to her that she should seek out some professional help. Most universities have programs set up to help their students deal with mental health issues. I would contact the student health center or possibly the psychology/counseling department at her school to see what is available. Of course, if she has decent health insurance she can go to an independent psychiatrist/psychologist. In any case, all you can do is suggest that she do these things. If she won't take you up on it then probably the best thing you can do for her is become a part of her life again so that you can offer as much support as possible as a friend.

Its harder then you think. This girl doesn't have any money, only reason she can afford a private university is because of her scholarships and grants. She probably has the cheapest health insurance available if any and her parents don't give a crap about anything. I've also constantly told her to seek professional help(as you can see in the chat) but she is out of state now and I can't force her to go. I'm also a poor college student and have very little money. The reason I posted this here is simple. I don't know much about what the hell she was talking about in the chat but i was hoping someone came across that knew someone that was going through the same thing and that could have suggested what she could have or some drugs that could help her while she's going through this. I could just be a total dick and ignore her and let her deal with it herself but she oviously reached out to me and even though i can't fix her i would like to help anyway possible. So i decided to post this in a large frequenlty used message board and take my chances over doing nothing.

Also, my message concering constructive posts was an attempt to filter this thread as much as possible, i know there will always be dumb posts but theres no harm in attempting to clean out at least a couple of worthless posts

It's certainly a possibility that she's just seeking attention and she's actually fine. But in the case that she's not, she needs professional help asap. All university provides counseling for their students, even if they don't have insurance. Tell her to go to the health center and seek help. It's good that she's talking to you but this require more than peer counseling. I admire your desire to help but do set aside your feelings. She'll need PLENTY of time to recover before she's stable enough for any relationship. Good luck and I hope she'll get the helps she needs.

Send her to the crazy house for a few months.

Dude, I could not possibly read through all of that, so let me just me a comment.

Perhaps she is not really her. She could be a duplicate of herself. An alien duplicate! My God man! we are being invaded and it's started with your girlfriend.
you must now find her "real" body and smash the pod next to it!

Godspeed man!
