Last night about 9PM, my sister's boyfriend sent me a text message;
"Nina overdosed on excedrin, and she's in the hospital..."
I was already at work, but hadn't clocked in yet..I sat there, in numb shock. He text me back, and asked if he should call my mom, and I told him that I would take care of it...
I called mom, and when I heard her voice, it was niagra falls....I could barely get the words out...
I don't want to eat, I have no interest in anything atm; I'm just competely numb.
James has been keeping me posted; they charocaled her stomach, and they kept her overnight for observation. She's home now, and we're going up there today to see her and James both...I haven't slept yet [I work midnights] and I don't know what I'm gonna say to her...
I just can't stop crying...we've been through so much together; she's my absolute best friend...
She was released from the hospital this morning, and she is seeking professional help, as well.
They took her blood every two hours to monitor her aspirin levels, and they had IVs in her as well.
They told her that if she hadn't gotten help within another half hour, her liver would have been damaged beyond repair, and that she was quite lucky that her boyfriend acted when he did.
We fell asleep together in her huge bed, and we just talked about everyday things, and she polished my toenails...I let her bring it up, and just listened. In the meantime, my friend, Jenn, was texting me, and there for me all day long. She's been amazing as well...
I don't even know how I managed to get through the past 24 hours...
Thank you ladies, for all of your support; it really means a lot. =]
I tried to kill myself two years ago... I drank a bottle of vodka and downed a bottle of pills... I lived (now thankfully) if you would like to talk I would be more then willing to give my perspective... It's not something I feel the best just posting about so please pm... If you don't want that I will talk...
I might offer nothing but I might be able to answer "suicide attempt survivor questions" they are hard to answer though.... I always try my hardest too....
