what should I say to my friend??

Well for some time my friend has been smelling really bad she never takes a shower and never takes care of her self. She has a ton of acne and she is really over weight. Her parents never take care of her so she never does anything. And I found out recently that she might have bipolar depression so that doesn’t help,when I try to talk to her about taking care of herself. I really want to help her out but I never know what to say. please help me she is just getting worse!

Answer #1

This is pretty touchy.

Maybe you can buy her a “gift” basket with pretty scented soaps and perfumes. If you notice that she’s using it, comment on how lovely she smells. Take her to the pharmacy and test out new perfumes with her - encourage her to buy some. Tell her how great your “new” deoderant smells, and recommend it to her.

At any rate, you have to appraoch this in as positive a manner as possible. If you just come out and tell her the truth, it could make her feel even worse.

Answer #2

Just say something like this “Listen (insert friends name here) I really think you should, tke care of yourself somemore, and I’ll even help you out, if you get stuck, but please for the sake of our friend ship, or your heath (whatever you want to say there) I would really aprriate it if you did. Thanks (insert frinds name here)”

Or you can just text her something along the lines of that.
