			<description><![CDATA[I hear you loud and clear.  I have been in your situation and have attempted suicide in the past.  I'm even contemplating doing it at this moment because of so many stupid reasons BUT I am mostly trying to convince myself NOT to go through with it.  Reasons?

 Hi. I'm Jc....recently joined this site after " lurking" for a while. I've seen some of your posts before regarding your Med reaction. 
 I missed...or perhaps you haven't said.....what were the meds and what was the reaction? 
 I suppose the specifics don't matter much....except that, maybe it w...]]></description>

I am barely holding on today and I was supposed to go to a mindfullness class but I just didn't have the energy and I feel weird in a group setting anyway.

 I am so so sorry for all you have been through and all that you are still going through.
