New to this.


Hi, I'm seeking advice and a safe place to discuss my situation.  I think this is the place.  I'm not certain if I need counseling or should join a Naranon group.  My sister tried to commit suicide this past Monday.  She's in ICU right now.  When she got to the hospital she was not good.  We didn't know if she would live.  Now she better but not responding.  She's totally out of it and not coherant.  We have found out after this attemp that she has been doing Meth and abusing several perscription pain medications.  I am shocked, angry, and scared that I might lose her.  My family and I feel helpless and want to track down the people she got these drugs from and elliminate them from her life.  Hell, I don't even know if she's still going to make it.  Doctors tried to put in a feeding tube yesterday.  She wouldn't let them.  It is now day 5 that she's been in ICU, no change.  It's hard to keep busy and keep my mind off of what could possibly be the last few days I have a sister.  I want to tell everyone about this so that it never happens to anyone else.

PRAYERS AND BLESSINGS TO YOU AND YOUR SISTER, CAR. I HOPE SHE IS ALRIGHT. HOWEVER, ELIMINATING PEDDLARS AND CONNECTIONS AND USING FRIENDS IS NOT HOW IT WORKED FOR ME. RECOVERY IS AN INSIDE JOB. TRYING TO GET YOUR SISTER INTO A SAFE PLACE, MAYBE, A REHAB, FOR SOMETIME, WHERE SHE CAN DO SOME SOUL SEARCHING WITH THE HELP OF PROFESSIONALS, AND THEN, TRYING TO BRING HER TO NA MEETINGS WHEN SHE IS OUT, WAS WHAT WORKED FOR ME TOO... PLEASE LET US KNOW HOW SHE IS DOING...
