I have an online friend from New York. She’s been abused by her dad a lot. She has to move out and find a better paying job. I made a resume for her and a financial plan (that covers everything at her current salary), found her the apartment but she keeps saying that she won’t be able to afford it even tho she can. Her dad refused to buy groceries ( she can’t drive) and they don’t deliver meat (which she needs, I kept telling her that she can find alternatives but she sees it like I’m arguing with her. I do understand that she wants her need met but I don’t know how else to help her) which made her extremely suicidal. 

She’s threatening that she’ll overdose, she has a month worth of Xanax and alcohol. She’s threatening to overdose everyday and it seems like I’m not able to convince her not to. No matter what I do, what advocates I give and what plan I come up with she won’t accept it and keeps threatening  that she’ll commit suicide and I’m really really scared. 

I’m scared that I’ll say something to push her over the edge and I’m afraid of not ever persuading her. Also she has a huge debt and she can’t afford hospitalization. If I alert the authorities they will force her to go into a hospital and she’ll get like a 1000$ bill that she won’t be able to afford and she’ll probably end up in jail.

I feel extremely scared and I don’t know what to do, any advice is welcomed.
