She is currently on modified duties and doesn't even really do that much.
To start with she should quit her job or take a leave of absence.

You will find 98 year old man oo baddaas dheer usoo safray siduu westiga usoo gaaro. Kadibna boqol sano oo dambe sii shaqeeysto. That is the reality of the Muslimiin today. We all love to live one million years. Tell he/her you are a lair and a pretender. do it for yourself...............
Sxb there's people within the community who are sick and believe that they need to kill themselves and some have gone through and killed themselves. We cannot call them non-Muslims; we should make dua for them to become better.

As for your friend Nabeela, you should show her videos of people who are in far worse predicaments and are appreciating the value of life. As Archerr mentioned, your friend may begin to value her life by taking time off work. I commend you for actually being on their side in their time of need.

May Allah help those within our ummah who are suffering from depression and mental illness. Ameen

Did she say how she was going to do it? If someone told me they wanted to kill themselves that would be my first question.

Maya, and I didn't ask her, I was utterly in a state of shock.

i.e siad barre, Abdilahi yusuf, A.gurey, Aidiid, sayedka etc etc

their must be a 'qabiil' element in the process.. well in any process !
