Hi NickyNackyNorah
Thanks for your letter. It's great that you are looking for ways to help your friend - you sound like a very good friend to her.
One thing you could do would be to encourage her to contact ChildLine, either on 0800 1111 or through the 1-2-1 chat, and talk to a counsellor about what's been happening. You can reassure her that she doesn't have to tell us her name or anything else about herself and unless she tells us that someones life is in danger ChildLine won't tell anyone else what she tells us.
It can sometimes be difficult to support a friend who is going through something like this, so make sure you look after yourself too. There is more advice about helping a friend on the ChildLine website - and of course you could contact Childline too to talk it through.
Hope that helps
Sam
