I don't know what I should do! :/

So if you won Nano, there's this thing on Lulu you can sign up for. Ten people are picked, and if you're picked someone professionally designs your cover, formats the book, gives you 100 free copies, distributes your book to major bookstores, and advertises it somewhere.

I really, really want to at least sign up (even though my book is crappy and I probably wouldn't be picked) but the only thing I hesitate on is the fact that you have to give a phone number. Yeah, it seems stupid, but what if it's a scam and not legit?

GAHHHHHHH WHY CAN'T THERE JUST BE AN EMAIL OPTION

Hi , I haven't been on in five ever .
So my friend overdosed about 30-40 minutes ago . I'm not sure what kind of pill (painkiller, antidepressant) all I know is that she took about twenty of them .
She's currently throwing up and trying her best to stay awake, but I don't know what is currently going on because she stopped replying on iMessage .
I'm really scared and I don't know what to do .
I can't call a suicide hotline because I don't know where she lives and her last name or address .
Okay , yeah it sounds stupid but I really need help .
All I know is to keep her awake or her system will permanently shut down .

Thank you ,
BWAS

(please don't try anything crazy like calling the police because I don't know any personal information, so it's basically just giving them a name and there's no way they can locate her like that)

It's 1:00 AM here I'm scared 🌚

BearWithAStrawberry 12-09-2013 03:29 AM

Tell her to call 911, even if she's not responding. Just keep sending the same message every few seconds until she does respond. I'm sorry, I really don't know what else to suggest.... D: I really really hope she'll be okay...
