Hi there,

I am sure you are doing everything you can to help your friend. There is a limit to what you can do as a friend other than being there and listening. I am sure that the professionals at the hospital will be keeping a close eye on your friend. Perhaps you can suggest coming back in to talk to one of us?

Would it help at all if you were to come and chat to one of us? Sometimes it can be hard to watch someone you care about not doing so well. We are confidential and available most days. You can call us on 01382 206222, e-mail or just pop in if you are in Dundee at all.

Its just hard as she stays with me she said she came here for support a fewyears ago but I would rather she camee in and spoke to someone she is preety ashamed of talking to people about it though.. not sure if she was like this before??
