Friend with Acetominophen overdose

Seems like she's just doing this for the attention if she didnt learn a lesson the first time. Esp. getting you involved with it again.
 
You need to get a proffesional mental health person involved asap she is a danger to herself.
Doing this will not make you a "snitch" or a bad friend shit if she doesnt get help soon she will be dead so it wont matter what kind of friend you were.
 
Why did she perform a cwe on 7 pills the first time then just take the rest? Doesn't that sort of defeat the purpose?

<I know you're only joking but comments like this aren't welcome in TDS, thanks - n3o> Haha just kidding, this person is crying out for attention or help, cant really tell. Your her friend have a talk with her.

I agree wholeheartedly with this. It is clear that she has made an informed decision to overdose on apap for a second time. This appears to definitely not be an accident this time.


Mr Fluffykins, I'm afraid that you will have to get her to go to the hospital again, the same as you did previously. Do you think you can get her to go? Or take her yourself?? 9 grams is still an overdose and she can still have irreversible liver damage from that dosage. I know you are aware of the risks and you were a fantastic friend previously and were able to help her before the damage was done. Are you in a position to do so again?
 
don't have a car right night, the friend hasn't replied to a text i sent

now the girl is drinking another liter of wine,

i feel like shit right now for other reasons, and dont have the energy to convince her other wise right now,

at this point whats the point of trying right now,

she said shes done that dose before and been fine, and really, i can't just keep arguing anymore, im down low as shit right now
 
uh, your friend is SUICIDAL...which is something that no one has seemed to mention yet...i would call the suicide prevention hotline, or give her the number...

I think whats best for your friend is a psych hospital....5150, she sounds like shes suicidal, and she wants help...and AFTER she goes to a psych hospital, try not to treat her any different...be there for her and understand that she's depressed. In fact, PRESS to see her, make sure shes always with someone...

being that sad sucks but there *is* hope...even if she doesn't see it.
 
i just got a text this morning
"i thinki over dosed on tyleonal again"
"wtf why"
"i only took 30 pills this time, but i feel dizzy and nausous, i can't sleep, i only took 9 grams"
"im feeling better the weird feelings went away, i think i have a tolerance to tyleonal "

im sorry, dont mean to be rude but <comments like this are not welcome in TDS, please be more thoughtful in the future, thanks - n3o> her liver will be fucked from the first overdose and will be very weak, 9 grams with wine will kill her this time if she doesnt get to hospital with a few hours after taking it.

ive been through this with plenty of friends.

theres no point in trying to help someone that clearly doesnt give a fuck. she knows what shes doing, she just doesnt care. you've tried to help, i would walk away from the situation until she decides she really wants help.
 
Glad to hear she is doing okay. You're not responsible for her actions so I hope you don't take them on too much.

WTF is wrong with you? Must not be a very good friend if you feel so nonchalant abut her trying to kill herself.

I agree... I mean AT LEAST 2 suicide attempts by this chick and she's still at it with no repercussion. What the hell are her parents doing? This chick needs to be thrown in the psych ward before she succeeds in killing herself.
