I had a doctor visit yesterday. I lied to him when he asked if I had any suicidal thoughts. I was afraid he might do something that would interfere with my chance at a happy Christmas visit with my children. I haven't seen my babies since June, and, God how I miss them. I'm afraid that since I tried to make my situation sound positive, when really I barely get through most days, I fouled up my chance to get help. Any suggestions or advice?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps.

He cant treat you properly unless your honest with him
And If your not honest you might get pushed to the stage where you something drastic and never see them again.
Just remember that the doctor can help you...instead of having just a happy christmas, every day can be happy. Try to get better and be as honest as you can!
I hate lying, but you did the right thing.
First how serious are your thoughts, are you just thinking about it, or do you have a plan of action?
I think about mountain climbing too but my health will not allow it, so just the thought doesn't mean your suicidal.
Call your doctor back and talk to him, you have to help you first.
Don't end up like me. Please don't. No good comes of being treated the way I was.
You love your kids, and Christmas, what else? What else can you look forward to and enjoy?
