My friend is currently having what I would describe as a mental health crisis.
She text me a message saying 'goodbye' - she has been very low recently due to an abusive ex as well as family problems, financial worries and health issues.
She's just had enough.
I rang her and to my surprise she answered.
She was talking openly about suicide, that she doesn't feel scared or anything. Just peaceful that she'll finally be out of the misery she's in.
I asked her if X (our other close friend) could come round to speak to her and she said a 'goodbye in person would be nice.'
X then rushed round to her home and found her sitting on the couch, with the front door wide open. message redacted by MNHQ
When X asked why it was out she said 'they're coming, they will get me but at least I can get myself first.'
She won't tell X who 'they' are.
She has had a total mental breakdown. She believes someone's coming to get her, she wants to die, she said something about her mind saying it was the right thing to do.
But she's acting normally, scarily calm.
X is obviously not leaving her (she's in the garden smoking at the moment) but I have no idea what to do.
X can't find any crisis team numbers in her house.
X is texting me broken bits of information because she's slightly worried that if friend perceives her as being a danger *

Is 999 the right option? I don't know what the police or ambulance could do?
There's no crime being committed. She's not hurt.
Please anyone with advice? Google is turning up nothing.
