just talkin ...thought this might help others
it is ok....we all think and sometimes try to do it...but we rarely succeed coz we really dont wanna die....i took myself of 2 of my meds a couple of weeks ago and i crashed bad......i wanted to give up and was so down that when i think of it now it is hard to believe......i wanted to take my hubby and my baby dog with me...that is how stupid i was, even writing about it makes me feel sorta ashamed.....but how the hell could i kill my little dog and what if she died and i didnt and how the hell was i gunna get hubby to come too !....sittin here remembering that is so surreal and i cant imagine feeling that low but i did and was ! i spent a lot of time just sittin on the floor talkin to myself and crying like i was breaking in two...there was nothing bad happening in my life that triggered all this it was just lack of some chemical....so being correctly medicated can be important to a lot of people.
and then if we let time pass and talk to someone we come to the point where we are feeling a bit better.....i told my doctor coz i wanted him to know exactly how down and out i could become...i wanted him to see how very real this depression anxiety was....and how very important medication was and how we had to get it right... we had to get that imbalance of chemicals in my brain fixed...i didnt want to think of killing myself all the time !
i took a box of valium washed down with beer when i was 24 and ten minutes later i panicked and ran to a neighbour for help...an ambulance came and took me to hospital and i had my stomach pumped by a nurse i went to school with...i felt like shit...they kept me over night and i had to go see a shrink the next day and he wasnt any help....i went to my own gp and he helped me heaps and i am still here....thank god !
so get help and let time pass is my motto.

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. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...

When I woke up after a box of Anti-Depressants, I regretted I swallowed the valium along with it, Cause its what I needed (really stupid).
Then the time I swallowed abox of Luvox, Diazepam, And amatriptaline, and Tramadol;
I was sure I did it, woke up inhospital, on Narcan screaming due to pain (spinal injury). Docs said I was real-lucky.
Then the time I took 2000mg of morphine, It took me 5 hours to reach the fridge to get water, Which I spilled all over me (helped), The pain was still there, and I couldnt reach the phone for Amboi's; another close call.
Then the bottle of Southern Comfort ,Gin, Scotch, Brandy; yes I drank all bottles with a box of valium, and drove my car off a mountain, hit atree and knocked my battery cable out.
I just wanted Help, and its hard to get.
I gave all this up, if I have to leave there is a better way, but Im not ready, and I dont take risks any more. I found alot worth the effort to survive.
