Okay my friend just cut herself. Dont give me any lectures on thats she really needs to quit and she needs a therapist. But she cut herself pretty badly this time and is about to pass out. Im freaking out right now and i just need to know what she can do to stop from passing out. Her cut is still bleeding and she has a cloth over it. The cut is on her waist and shes lost enough blood that her hands are shaking to where she cant even type and she cant stand up or else she will fall over. Is there anything she can do from not passing out. She is afraid of her parents because this time they will probably send her somewhere. Please give anything usefull that will keep her awake.

I agree with everyone else and hope by now you have already done so...but you need to get her medical attention NOW. Nothing else matters. This is quite possibly a life or death thing...not a matter of staying awake but of staying alive. She cut her waist and is bleeding that way? That is very, very bad. If they have to send her somewhere...be thankful. Clearly, she needs professional help right now. Better her parents get upset now than be devastated for the rest of their lives from losing their daughter.
If you do nothing, you just may regret it for the rest of your life. She needs your help.

Call 911 NOW !
roll-up any clean cloth (or gauze or a woman's clean pad)
hold it over the cut and press hard enough to stop the bleeding until paramedics arrive.
She may have lost too much blood to stay conscious.
911 NOW !

First call 911 RIGHT now, if you truly are her friend you will care enough to get her help, you wouldn't worry about making her parents mad. Then after you call 911 get some cloth or something & tie it where she cut herself.

What's more important, saving her life or not pissing off her parents. CALL 911! She could bleed to death! Have you ever considered that she might just need to be sent someplace that will actually help her!
Be her friend and get her help, CALL 911 now!

Tie some cloth tightly over the cut to apply pressure. She needs to have some medical attention. I know you don't want to hear that but seriously you don't want her to die. Please do the right thing and see that she gets help.

U could try vitamins/supplemental pills containing iron. Or she can eat red meats and spinach to increase her hemoglobin.
