How'd I miss this one?
I'm glad the your DD's friend made it...lots of kids OD and don't.
As for being locked away, it can do a world of good especially since this seems like she was acting out and not being a serious attempt...
My mother was put away for 3 days because she stabbed herself with a fork in the stomach to mae a statement to my grandfather that she needed him...long story. But she called the police and I got the call from a family friend who heard it on the police scanner.
In MA you get 3 days involuntary before they reevaluate or you're detoxed or sober enough to check yourself out.
Maplesky, hugs and prayers to you also...you're a brave person to have gone through all that.
