To bad they don't have a iphone APP for that yet.lol..keep us posted.
We are all here for you Kayla, but if you have no choice drink some tea and watch a relaxing movie. I send good energy your way.
I agree with this. I remember one time, my mom collapsed when we were in town. I didn't know what to do so I just flagged down a cab. As we arrived at the hospital I realised that I left my wallet in the hotel. The cabbie told me "it's fine love, hope she gets better". I do think it's worth a try.

Sending prayers your way x

I doubt they will send you to a crazy house Kayla unless you are a threat to yourself or others...

Their responsibility is to medically ensure you are not at risk of seizure or stroke and to stabilize you...sometimes they can do that in a matter of a few hours, and sometimes longer.... But they will evaluate you medically to determine that you are in a safe zone medically!

Keep an eye on your symptoms and get some help if you need to...

How are you feeling now?

I assume you're a legal adult, noone is going to involuntarily commit you.

I think not going to the ER would be a bad choice Kayla.

Personally, I know others are well meaning, but I think you're past any do it yourself detox ideas.

You need help.

Good to hear from you Kayla.

I take it that you didn't go to the hospital... Are you feeling ok? Have you talked to your doctor?

All of my friends here have assumed correctly. I did not go to the ER. I decided to drink more. I had a great day at work today, only through mental force and self talk. I am looking forward to my out patient treatment coming up. In the mean time, I am drinking beer and lots water and food. I lost so much weight. I could be on the runway as skinny as I am. I'm pooped. Have no friends left and I don't care. Got some anger going on.
