i usually don't start a thread/post on here but here goes it.
the last several days i have been experiencing extreme agitation, anxiety, with some suicidal ideations. i did apologize to my hubby and explained to him that i am not up to par. since then he and my son has given me extra space. i also been extremely noise sensitive, so i am hibernating in the pc/bed room.
i took extra meds today to help with the thoughts that are racing, along with for the agitation and anxiety. so far they are working some. i want to take more meds too. i have the suicidal thoughts, and part of me really wants to act on them. i dont know what to do with myself, except to write here how i feel. oh yeah, i forgot to tell you, i have had no new med changes in a long time. so it can't be that. guess i just wanted to share.

Today is my 25th birthday, to my somewhat lack of surprise I can see already no one really seems to care.

I can count 4 times this year when I Went out of my way to make sure a "friend" felt good on their birthday, especially if they got left hanging. Its early in the...
Sometimes we just have to ask to be held until it goes away. Kudos to you for being so proactive about your mental state- that's wonderful.

"I think most people feel so relieve" doesn't make sense.
Mind you, it's a bit hypocritical, cos it's midnight here !
Aww.. I can spell 'hypocritical' though !!
I'm not sure what you mean when you said you took extra meds. I took an extra Klonopin, but it was only one more than I was suppose to have. I hope when you say extra meds. you aren't referring to several.
These days will pass as painful as they are. You should try to see your pdoc. as soon as possible.
I don't know what your relationship is with your husband, but he needs to beaware you are having these feelings.
If you hold yourself up in your room, let your husband hold onto the meds. until you stabalize. My husband and I decided together that one extra pill shouldn't kill me. On the other hand if you are taking a few extra it can be negative for several reasons.
*you might take too many
*they may be less affective when used correctly
*not a good habit to make decisions when you are unstable
Please make sure you let someone within an arms reach know how you are feeling. This is very important. If you are like me last year, I had no where to turn. Still find someone to tell so you will have someone checking in on you.
I'm glad you reached out on here. I know it is hard for some people, but I'm very proud of you for posting.
Don't forget, tell someone in an arms reach how you are feeling. No more extra meds. You may need to ride it out until you can get to a doc. Sometimes they have to adjust things.
You will settle again. Hold out for that!
