Ask Me Help Desk - Seeing apparitions

Hello. This question is not about me
Its about my best friend
She let me read her journal
In which were writtin numerous entrys about her life
A lot of these were not very pleasant do to he familly situation and such
But I'm not here to tell you about that either
Today I read that she had stopped seeing "the apparitions"
Which when I asked her about it she said when she was alone especially in the bathroom, she would see herself curled up in the opposite corner of the room. Except this version of herself was very dark, had messed up hair and her wrists were ripped up and bleeding out.
The apparition hid most of its face but glared at her as if saying to go away because she wanted to die alone.
What is this? Her bilogical mother has Schizophrenia, and I know a lot about phyciatry, and know that its genetic, but I don't know enough to help her right now. I think I might know what happened to her when she saw the other her, but I'm not educated enough to know for sure. Please help me figure out what this is.
Please for the love of everything that is good in this world help me help her.
Yours truly

Just as schizophrenia can be "genetic"... spirits can also be passed from one family member to the next. She needs a Christian influence in her life. Only Jesus Christ can break this circle.
