How do you help a depressed 15 yo girl?

[Anonymous]

So I saw in a social platform a girl saying she was depressed. I contacted her trying to help her, she initially said she was 18. So we talked a lot and got a bond in between us, then she revealed she is 15 and turning 16 in one month. She is depressed because her parents abuse her a lot, she tried seeking help but they always sent her back home thinking she was a lying teen. She tried to kill herself twice and even then they didn't help her. She lives in UK and I live in US. I'm 23 and you might wonder "What business has a 20+ talking to a teen?" Well she lied about her age and when she revealed she was 15, she was already very attached to me. She even has a crush on me but I can't just abandon her, she's been suicidal and I would never forgive myself if she killed herself because I left her. She thinks nobody loves her and I'm the only one that shows her love. She wants to live her parents' house and move with me, what do I do? I know all she said is real, she showed me proves and all and I trust her. So how do I help her?

Tell her to work at Pizza Hut and find a female roommate to live with.

She is almost 16, can she work at that age in UK? Also the thing is she got very attached to me and she says she would kill herself if I left her. I'm the only one that showed her care and love so she is very attached and in love. So it's a complicated situation

I had a suspicion this is another post from the 25-29 year old who has a hot sister 🤣

Yes, you can "abandon" her. You are grooming her.

So then what? I cut ties with her and let her kill herself? She attempted to take her life twice already and she almost died of overdose. I don't see her sexually at all, she needs my help and I would never forgive myself if she killed herself because nobody loves her, nobody cares for her and nobody supports her. It's not her fault she has shitty parents

[joeldalton]

You’re sexually grooming her.

[Asker]

How am I sexually grooming her? I never asked her for anything sexual. All I want is to keep her safe and give her the support and love she needs

[joeldalton]

You are grooming. You know it, I know it.

[Asker]

If grooming her is keeping her safe and saving her life then sure

[headphonekim]

You don't. Let her get the help she needs.

She tried to ask for help at her school and everywhere else, she is very frustrated because they just sent her back home, that's when she tried to kill herself again. She was very close to death for overdose and in the hospital for a week. I can't just leave her like that, she says I saved her life because she was considering on trying again but then she met me
