You are a very good friend to
You are a very good friend to want to help your friend. I'm glad she is getting professional help, which is critical for recovery.
As her friend, I think the best thing you can do is to let her know that you are there for her, and ask her how you can be supportive. Sometimes just knowing that someone is there, unconditionally, means more than you know.
Keep reminding her that she CAN do this! Take care of yourself as well....?
