Well...
Let's get straight to the point. I'm someone who doesn't judge anyone. I accept them for who they are, even if i don't understand it. So often times, people come to me with secrets...and problems. I have a whole host of them. and usually i can help.
But i'm emotionally involved in this one. One of my most loved "loved ones" has come to me with this. The only thing is....she's 13. Extreamly intelligent. I expect her to be smarter than me. And i love her SO much...and it breaks my heart that the age of innocence is finally at an end. and while i expected some degree of this with such a complicated mind...i not expect this:

Hi Cameron if I tell you something will you plaese promise not to tell anyone...
*I say yes*
Subject: Re:Secret
I am having suicidal thoughts and I don't know how to stop them.
So...my love gets in the way. I've given her some pointers. But at the same time...i have a very sad history with suicide. I've had many good friends taken away from me. And this is one of my favorite family members. and it breaks my heart. I've sent an email to someone who lives with her to keep an eye out on her. Offer her love and support. and if she starts acting drastically different or strange, to let me know right away
But...i don't know if this is just "thirteen" or if it's possible depression or bipolar disorder. What the hell should I do? I.....for once.....don't know. Because i love her so much....i'm.....not objective.
So...any advice would be great.
Cheers
