Informing the police during welfare check (UK) that you took SN last week and have just been discharged from hospital

[M3lancholia]

So I had my police welfare check this morning in the UK. 2 police officers asked to come in without saying the reason - obvs I was expecting this. They said they were concerned about a package that they knew was delivered to me in December, and were concerned that it could be used for suicide.
I told them I'd ordered the substance and that I'd taken it last week. Explaining that I'd only just been discharged from hospital. They were a bit taken aback and asked if I had any left - unfortunately the hospital took the rest whilst I was in resus. They asked me where I got it from & I just said the internet but couldn't remember what site.
Wasn't much else they could do except to say they were sorry they didn't come last week and asked if I needed any support. They seemed ok for police and they didn't really know what to say.
Luckily I live on my own but I really feel for the people who have the police confront them in front of family/flatmates.
Funnily enough they (nor I) mentioned the name of the poison.

I'll detail my failed SN attempt in another post soon - I'm still coming to terms with the fact I'm still here

Damn, I want to know what the experience of SN was like? was it peaceful? how did you get saved?

Were they uniformed or not? May sound like a weird question but I've read some people say they've had police detectives to see them (plain clothes). If they're detectives it means they're trying to gather evidence for a criminal case against the seller(s).

How obnoxious! In the UK are you required to let them in? I think here in America we can tell them to f*ck off unless they have a warrant or something.

Yes I was wondering the same thing. I haven't heard of the US even doing welfare checks for SN is that happening here too?
