Re: Brag: I may have saved a life.
[ QUOTE ]
While we were at the apartment and trying to tell her that we were going to take her to the hospital she kept saying over and over how she didn't want her parents to find out. When we got to the hospital after her parents went in to see her the roommates started talking about how pissed off she is gonna be. I chimed in, "No kidding, she's gonna wanna kill herself." [/ QUOTE ] Oh man, that's a gem - it's really a shame that the most tragic moments in life often yield the most humor gold. Similar story - this freshman chick at college was in a date auction; she was only bought for $60 far below her perceived worth so she went back to her room and took a bunch of pills and ended up in the hospital. When my friend was told about this story, he responds deadpan - "Geez..I just feel sorry for the guy who bought her."

Re: Brag: I may have saved a life.
More than you care to know, but it really depends on what the antidepressent type is....
Tricyclic antidepressents are about the most lethal overdose there is - one of the very few things that come into Emergency Departments that is an actual emergency. Treatable if early enough, but patients tend to crash rapidly and without warning. The newer antidepressents, monocyclics and some others, are much less toxic. But some patients do better on the old tricyclic types, so they are still perscribed. I've been an ER doc for just shy of 20 years - all at a busy trauma center. Almost nothing scares me - but a tricyclic OD is one of the things that does.... MM MD
