An Online Acquaintance Is Depressed Posted: 10-23-06 15:55pm
I befriended this girl at this dating site
called itzamatch.Com which I casually
visit. She seemed to be crying for help
to strangers. She says she's depressed
but doesn't want to take any medication.
Her dad passed away over a cardiac arrest
a couple of years ago and she had to
derail her schooling to work and get her
siblings to finish school. Her mom's an
alcoholic. Now, I don't know her
personally but she's from the same town I
grew up with that I just want to reach out
to her. No one is and when they do, they
just leave a sentence or two but that's
it. I don't know what it is with this
person that I am so drawn to her story.
What can I do when i'm thousands of miles
away from her?
