Woke up to a call 2hours ago to say DD is in hospital her friend rang an ambulance. Stuck here till I can get hold of DH who is out delivering to go to her. she took all her amytriptaline.

The hospital said they are still waiting for her to wake up and she is hooked up to monitors at the moment. Her friend said she didnt want to go to hospital and said DD said she will make a better job of it when she gets out. She drank and hasnt had any alchohol for nearly a year, someone stole her iphone and she was very upset about it. First time she went out with her friends, only to a house for a sleepover but its all gone wrong at least they had sense to get her to hospital.

Still no appointment for eating disorder clinic, and still no dates for further scans on her brain. Please god can we have sunshine instead of all this rain :(

Such good news. I really hope she gets the help she needs.

Oh, that's such a relief. I hope things start getting better for her and you all.

Is there any practical help we give you? Hugs and virtual support seem so little. Thinking of you. Xx

Glad shes awake, how long medically will they keep her? I know with paracetamol the effects can kick in much later. Hopefully long term effects wont be but just hope she gets some help now x
