I’m currently on holiday for a week with my fiancé, and two best friends (a guy and a girl- not together). 

One friend had a break down yesterday and she basically revealed she’s been having trouble with a voice in her head that tells her to do bad things. She’s attempted suicide by overdose once in the past (about 4 years ago now) but she also told me she’s recently OD’d twice and was discharged with no follow up the first time (they said she’s not got any issues- even though she just OD’d) and then she discharged herself from hospital against doctors advice on the second visit - she hadn’t even told me about this and she hasn’t told her parents about her struggles (they were very much in denial about her mental state the first suicide attempt and I don’t think they help her at all). 

She told me the drugs aren’t helping and that she feels she isn’t getting the help she needs. She has sores and bruises all over her arms from self-harming from the anxiety and depression this is causing her.

I’m a little scared since I don’t know the extent of these bad things she’s hearing- and I am a little worried for our safety- but, mostly I am worried that she’s been let down by these professionals when she clearly needs help. I can only really offer my shoulder to cry on and ears to listen, but I’m fed up of feeling helpless now and I would like to know if anyone can offer advice as to what I can do for her or what she can do for herself?
