Hello Bettina, and welcome to NeuroTalk.

What a wonderful friend you are to be seeking information for your friend. We have different forums where you will most likely get the information that you're looking for, for example, here's the link to our Epilepsy Forum where people who have seizures get help from each other. http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum11.html

There's also a Depression Forum, and one for people who have either lost some-one to suicide, or had suicidal thoughts themselves.

Here's a link to our Depression Forum as well : http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum37.html

Have a look around and see what forums best suit your needs, and join in anywhere Bettina.
