Years and years ago we had rat problems...we used traps. One got caught and was still alive...my husband was at work so I filled a bucket with water and threw rat and trap in.
If you do this, don't watch. But it works.
Sounds like she has borderline personality disorder to me.
Talk to the police and find out what your rights are. At the very least it will give them a baseline that this person is bothering you. Then screen your calls.
Better yet, change your number.
I'm bipolar (spelled bipolar NOT bi-polar, that's a big pet peeve of mine) and I suspect your girlfriend could also be dealing with it.
She needs to get a second opinion. If she does have bipolar (type two, the kind I have, is mostly depression) then she might want to try Lamictal. It is a mood stabilizer that works great for bipolar depression. Also, tell her to get into as much natural sunlight as she can, and get a good brand of B vitamin complex to take as well.
No matter what, she should NOT settle for staying on Lexapro. Even with allergic issues, there are too many other things out there to try. And for me, antidepressant poopout was the big red flag that got me my present diagnosis.
It takes about a day and a half to travel to the affected countries...so factoring that in, with your time constraints, I really don't think it is worth your effort to go. Perhaps there are other things you can do such as help fundraise...not to mention those areas will be in need of some kind of help for an extended period of time, so after the semester you may still be of use.
ASCAP or BMI is gonna have their hand out if you play any music at your cafe.
And is the health department gonna sign off on those gourds? How are you going to wash them? There are laws and codes that say how hot the water has to be to wash plates and cups and such.You have no idea how nitpicky Health Codes can be.
