Mine asks me a standard list. The one that makes me uncomfortable is "Any thoughts of suicide?" I don't know...

Its not so much a question but the implied idea that Im not suppose to come prepared with ideas that I have reseached to make myself better.

I have the time to research treatments that may help and studied the side affects to weed out ones I am prone to... So if I come in and ask if a certain medication may work as well as one you think might help me that has bad sideaffects I tend to get why is that so bad?

I have helped in choosing meds that dont have the sideaffects that affect me often and what do you know... Im finding my self more stable (I think) then ever befor... and I dont have the shakes Im not exhasted all the time and I am even picking up a third day at work....

He doesn't ask me any! He expects me to say what's bothering me if anything.

my pdoc asks me if i have any suicidal thoughts. yes, i say. i think about it everyday. i tell him i don't wanna die but it's always in my head. so he thinks that's ok. that's ok with me too. the thing is i won't plan ahead if and when i decide to do it. i will just get up and take my pills or use my gun. when i tried it before i didn't plan it. one minute i was ok and the next i was choking down five bottles of pills. i don't know what will happen to me. i'll either keep going or i'll die.

I was under the assumption that I had only ONE manic episode.He said " No, you had FOUR "
I said " Thanks, NOW I'm having bad thoughts "

Patty- Exactly! That's why I know I'm ok today. I want to die but if I talk about it I know I won't really do anything. All my attempts in the past were unplanned and fast!

i hate that you have to go thru that to, dobie but it makes me feel a lil better that i'm not alone.

Patty your not alone in your thinking..I think like that everyday at least once..You just learn to live with it..and accept it.

"How are you feeling/doing" What the hell am I supposed to say to that. It changes every hour. How much time does this pdoc have?

Do you ever have homicidal/suicidal thoughts?

Bugs the begeezers outta me.

" So what can I do for you today?"

Gee, I thought we could play a game of fucking checkers. What do you think numb nuts?

Haha
" numb nuts ! "

My Pdoc has never asked me if I've had homocidal thoughts!

I feel left out!

ma hands cant keep up with ma head-even if I could remember its last illogical thought....
how many mood changes can I have in day! How many thoughts can pass thro in an hour?
The nasty one is " are you hearing voices"?
Id worry if it was quiet...

my psych keeps askin me the same damn questions every time i see him and it is startin to piss me off
