This feels very dismissive of the work environment that would lead someone to go to this measure, and of mental health in general. If you're being reprimanded for taking allotted days off, and if the work environment is so hostile from higher ups that you end up being this distressed, then that's not her fault, nor is it evidence of an extreme personality. I'm not saying it's what I would have done, and I also would encourage anyone in a similar situation to seek other alternatives, but her decision to self harm doesn't make her any less credible.
