She can go to narcotics anonymous – you can go with her on an ‘open’ night

Answer by Dib
It’s hard to say. You mention her being “on medication”, is this something she’s being treated for then? If she’s almost overdosed and acts like a “zombie” it would certainly need to be brought to the attention of her doctor.
Maybe she needs to be using a different kind of medication or look therapies that don’t use drugs. Talk to her though. You’re her friend and if you’re concerned you need to act on it.
