So I have this friend, let's call her Betty, she's really messed up. She has a pretty bad drinking problem so me and my friend have decided to try to help her, we got her to stop drinking for a week and 2 days (that's fucking incredible for her).
I decided that stopping completely wasn't a great idea so I said once a week. Last night we bought 2 bottles of essence each containing 49% alcohol.
I thought I was doing the right thing, I thought she'd be ok.
Anyway we got back to her house and I drank a bottle and a half, my other friend had none and 'Betty had 3 bottles 4 panadols and 2 no doz. She was fucking smashed.

Later on she brought up her friends mums suicide, she then started to cry, we gave her cuddles to make her feel better. It obviously wasn't enough because she decided to go grab a very sharp razor from her cupboard. me and my friend held her down and took the razor out of her hand, while doing this I received a fairly deep cut on my finger. I left the room and went to wash my finger, my friend followed, leaving 'Betty' on her own. we returned a few minutes later to find 'Betty' sitting on the floor covered in blood.
She had severed 3 deep cuts into her left thigh. While my friend calmed her down I sat in her cupboard and attempted to clean the blood off her floor. This was a challenge, considering I was also off my face and bleeding. 'Betty' kept asking "where am I" and "am I dreaming" she apologized repetitively. She convinced me not to go and get her mother.
We went to bed an hour later after she'd calmed down slightly, she then started up again, this time she looked my friend straight in the eye and said I want to die, again she did this over and over, pretty much breaking my friends heart.
We went to bed for the second time. I slept in her blood stained cupboard, I woke up about half an hour later shaking wildly. I tried to get out of the cupboard and failed miserably, probably because I was facing the wrong way and clawing the wall instead of the door  
Anyway I finally got out and slept in her sisters room. I woke at 7 and realized I had gotten blood everywhere, AGAIN. 'Betty' was up so we had a cup of tea. We talked and I explained what had happened. She says she won't drink for a while. We washed everything that had blood on it, her doona, bed sheets, mattress protector and mine and her pants. It was the most insane night of my life. I never want to see that much blood ever again.

You might want to consider taking her to a psychiatrist or someone similar. That kind of suicidal behaviour isn't that good.

why did you think giving someone that much alcohol would be good for them?

It was nothing compared to what she usually drinks. But we didn't really have much control over her, if we weren't there she would of killed herself I assume.

She won't go and her parents gave up on her completely. We're working on it though.

It could be that this is a side-effect of the boozing and the quitting cold turkey.

Give her booze, but in VERY small amounts. Like, mixed-drinks sort of concentration.

I get like that when I'm fucked on spirits sometimes. Not quite as bad with the cutting and stuff, but it's not pleasent.

Hasn't happened in a while though, and I think I've outgrown that stage. But it's terrible for all parties involved.

listen, i'd forget the idea that she can't go cold turkey. the girl has clearly got problems bigger than you or her can deal with. good on you for trying to help her, but it looks like this is beyond you.

speak to parents/school counsellors/a doctor and get her some fucking help.

do NOT pussy foot around this with 'mixed drinks'. last night should have shown you how serious this is. do NOT fuck this up, i don't want to read about another teenage death in the paper.

i've had experience with this kind of thing, message me if you want to talk...

If she's physically addicted to alcohol she can't just stop or she'll get sick. Any attempt to get sober would need to be supervised by a doctor.
