Yes, Lucysgirl you are right about needing support.

Anonymous talks as if this girl had sought help...but many do not seek help or support.
Mental health teams are just that - Mental Health teams...they are not clairvoyant and can only give help and support if someone actually presents and ask for help.
It seems that frequently it is assumed that the support systems have failed in some way, when the failure is that of the person to seek help.

I feel for her immediate family and her friends...especially if this young person had kept her feelings to herself(which many of them do).
