Nata1980, I didn't call the police, or an ambulance because I didn't see an immediate need for medical care. I looked at what he had taken and googled for overdose amounts. I was planning on watching and of course if anything happened I'd call for an ambulance. Also as far as police, they can be so rough. Emotionally. I was afraid of saying the wrong thing, I can only imagine he **** police would have said. Of course sometimes they are a good option. But I'm hesitant. A while ago he broke his hand punching a wall during one of our fights. The police were at the hospital and one took me aside and she talked to me like I was a child, and said sternly, "why are you still with him?" It was like she was saying he was an unlovable piece of garbage. And I felt horrible. As it was I managed to gently convince him to call a suicide hotline type of thing. And i think it was good. He took it in small steps. He is now verbalizing that he has a drinking addiction. It's great to see. Great for him.
