She may hate you at that moment in time, but she'll thank you later for saving her life, in a sense. She definatly needs to stop drinking. She'll see that you are a good friend for helping her!

Michele answered Wednesday April 13 2005, 11:40 pm: There is this book that just came out. It is written by a young girl, She is about 21 now, but she had been drinking for a long time, she started at a young age. It is called SMASHED, and the author is Koren Zailckas. You and your friend might find it interesting. Try and get a copy, they may even have it at the library. I think that reading that book may open her eyes, and help her to realize what she is headed for.
Good for you for caring enough.

xoxbellabebexox answered Tuesday April 12 2005, 10:09 pm: M.lee,
you need to sit your friend down and tell her that her drinking is scaring you. that she should be able to come her you about everything just like how ur coming to her. she might say o everyones doing it when in reality people r doing it for the same reason. tell her your there for her. if it doesnt work ask me again but for now do that
hope it helps {member im always on!}
just_ask_me answered Tuesday April 12 2005, 9:37 pm: If she is under 21, you definitely need to get her help. If she drinks atleast once a day, there is a serious problem. Alcohol is a drug that can be easily abused, so she might already be an alcoholic. Tell your parents/her parents about it or write a letter to her or talk to her privately. Don't let this go on, because it's better to stop this problem now than let it go any further & get worse. good luck xo [ just_ask_me's advice column | Ask just_ask_me A Question ]
