Bipolar Disorder Support Group

Laura, its obvious that what you've BEEN doing is not working. That psychiatrist needs to go, and how you react to your husbad has to change, He cant support you like you deserve hon.

My suggestion after trying it myself 2 times and failing is: DON'T do it! If you give this a little time and a chance, it will be resolved and you will get better. Also, find a doctor you like. That's important, especially if your's isn't listening to you! And then do what that doctor says to do. Follow it like a recipe for health. And lastly know that you are amongst friends here that care about you. If you continue to go through these feelings and cannot gain control--go to the emergency room and get help. You are way to precious to sit there and die!!!!!!!

Sometimes we learn that we can only depend on ourselves. I've had thoughts but never made an attempt. I think the fact that you have made attempts but you're still here means you really don't want to do it. Check out this site: hope it helps.

I a, really trying to get through this and I can't get another appointmnet with a different therapist they all seemed to be booked. As far as going to the E.R. it really is a waste of time for evryone involved.
I am so sorry to bug you all.
Thanks for being here for me. But , I can't shake these feelings anymore.

Leave the Psych, get a new one. If you think you can pull through without the help of a psych you will be terribly mistaken. You need a good one, so whatever you do don't stop until you have the support of a good psychiatrist. Also, since you aren't getting the support you need at home try finding a support group in your area.

Hi, Laura,

I'm Diane, AND I CARE. I have lived your life to a certain extent, bought the ticket and got the f-ing t-shirt to prove it.

There is no one more important in life than you. I'm so sorry for your loss of a baby girl. She watches over you and does not want you to be miserable.

You mention you have kids-so do I. I was in the hospital four weeks ago from a bleeding esophugus. After two blood transfusions, two IVs, and blood pressure that hit 65/45, I SURVIVED. When the nurse told me I could be released if I walked to the nurses' station I replied, "I can dance there backwards!". When I was released the nurse asked me why I was crying. I told her I missed my kids. My kids are 19, almost 17 (May 30), and 14. My oldest two are gratuating high school on my father's 78 birthday. May 23. I almost lost my life. What a great graduation present, birthday present to my children (I was released from the hospital the day before my son turned 19).

Suicide is a STUPID solution to a non life-threating problem.

I divorced my children's father ten years ago and married the love of my life, my Army soldier on November 11, 2004-Veteran's Day.

Life goes on, Death does not on this planet. Before you think of suicide again, take a look around you-kids, family, friends, flowers blooming outside and think about the fact you will NEVER see that again.

Do you want to see your children graduate from school? Get married? Have children of their own? They might even look like you.

This ran through my head four weeks ago when I wasn't sure I was going to see them again. I cried so hard when I knew I was going to be released from the hospital.

Take life seriously, because as far as I know, this is the only one we have on earth.

God Bless you. You are in my prayers.

PS-You'll be fine.

Lauren most of us use this board as therapy and stay here 24/7, someone is always here. Dont give up you are too young

It may not seem like it, but pain is temporary; death, however, is permanent. Just wait one more day, one more day, one more day. You can always put suicide off one more day.

Hugz and prayers being sent to and for you.
