Need Advice
 

my girlfriend has just text messaged me and said she has hurt herself and taken some pills. I'm so worried about her and I don't know what to do. She says she only took 4 tablets (paracetamol she thinks)... can anyone help/give me advice?

can you go round? if she has only taken that amount she should be fine in that respect. how bad are her cuts? do they need medical attention? is she likely to do anything else?
all you can do is be there for her and get her to hospital if she needs it.

she lives on the other side of town with her parents and she doesnt want them to know. she never cuts that bad so no they aren't that bad. I just feel so useless here. dont think she's likely to do anything else, she said she was going to sleep.

ok. i'm sure she'll be ok hun. you can always check on her tomorrow and if she feel ill from ODing she needs to go to hospital ASAP, try to find out what she took as well. make sure her cuts are clean and covered.
is she getting any help professionally for how she feels?

she took paracetamol. no she's not getting any help and i don't think she wants it. we're both from very similar backgrounds so i understand where she's coming from in that respect.

ok. fair enough. if she cant stay safe perhaps she should mention it to a doctor though and see if anti-depressants help.
take care
