I am so ****ed off right now. I told the nurse in charge that my friend had really strong urges to harm herself and had the means and that she needed to be on 1-1 so they could stop her... The nurse assured me she would speak to the doctor so he could assess her and decide what to do. Well that didn't ****ing happen.
When I left to go home I kept texting my friend, just trying to distract her and encourage her to take her meds, try and sleep etc etc. There wasn't anymore that I could do. It wasn't enough.
Obviously I couldn't let her do that so I phoned the ward and let them know. Someone is now with her. I just hope they take it seriously now. If they had just ****ing listened to me in the first place it wouldn't have even happened!
