Suicidal best friend
I met my best friend about a year ago! Since then we’ve been inseparable.
She has an alcohol problem, and 2 nights ago she msged me saying she’s getting in the bath.
I didn’t think any of it really.
But I knew she been drinking. She drinks everyday and is always drunk. I started feeling like it’s draining hanging out with her these past few months. I feel terrible saying that but it’s true.
Anyways she sent me a pic of her in the bath, with the water colour. Which was red. Very red. I asked her why is it so red, she just said it’s a bath bomb.
Anyways an hour later she send me another picture and I could see it was blood. In about 3 seconds after I seen the pic. Her room mate msged me and asked if I was around the area.. I panicked and said why. My friend has cut her arms up badly and passed out in the bath drunk.
I balled my eyes out and when she sobered up I told her she needs help.
She finally agreed and we went and admitted her in hospital.
I just feel so bad. Like I know she may be angry at me or hate me. She had to get stitches on her cuts as they were that bad.
I just don’t want to lose my best friend :(
I feel terrible as I didn’t really give her a choice. I didn’t listen to her excuses anymore I just took her. I told her to pack her bags and we are going, thats final.
Is it normal to feel bad and guilty?
