Because there's totally a "right way" that OP should have reacted to prevent her friend from committing suicide, right? Even if OP had called the suicide hotline, what if that hadn't worked? What if the friend had still committed suicide? OP would have felt the same guilt he or she is feeling now. OP would still be asking his/her self what they could have done better. And people would still be blaming the OP for not trying hard enough to "save" their friend, just like they are doing now.

Even if OP had called the suicide hotline, what if that hadn't worked? What if the friend had still committed suicide?

Then at least the they could be semi-content in the knowledge that they had honestly exhausted all possible means of helping their friend. OP sounds like they didn't even try. When faced with an honest-to-goodness suicidal friend, who just gives them a new band to listen to? Way to not even take the friend seriously.

I realize that if someone is going to kill themselves badly enough, it's next to impossible to keep that from happening...but why, if you love the person, wouldn't you at least attempt to help them?
