Okay. I'm new here, just joined, and I think I may be able to bring a tad of clarity to this above quote (but if ya don't agree don't get nasty cos I'm the biggest bitch around lolol)
Right, firstly, people that talk about killing themselves never do. She wouldn't even have told you (evenn if you say you did pry) if she intended to go ahead and do enough to finish herself off because there's always the chance you could stop her by some means. Telling someone etc.
Secondly. Cutting yourself off, even if for a bit (but don't tell her you'll be back) WILL work. She's saying all this to you, and you're lapping it all up like a thirsty dog. In other words giving her the attention she craves, and by giving her the attention she will carry on saying what she does and it will end up damaging YOU. So by cutting yourself off she'll have no one to say those things to, so no one to feed from attention wise, so she'll find something else to do which will help her.
Alternatively, if cutting yourself off from her is something that just doesn't bear thinking about, don't indulge her if she says about it. She'll soon get bored.
