Hi dear,
She is going through many stress and due to all that she might have depression and so she is suicidal.
so best to consult her at psychiatrist and start medication.
if she is tried many times or sever suicide also start ECT (electro convulsive therapy) which helps her very fast.
What are other features associated like sleep and appetite disturbance, crying spells , easy irritability etc...
Consult psychiatrist.
Awaiting your response.
Thank you
