Do you all agree that, given these circumstances, that I should go back on meds or get some kind of "professional" help?
Monday night, I had a breakdown with suicidial thoughts, hallucination(seeing stuff that really isn't there), and panic attacks. I talked to a hotline that is suppose to be really good. I got off the phone with them, though, and just went into a major manic episode. I just couldn't get out. Finally after 2 hours of help from friends they couldn't talk to me anymore because it was getting late. So I read for a while, but had another panic attack. Since it was so late I decided to call the hotline back to talk to someone, but they feared that I was going to hurt myself and threatened to call the cops on me if they didn't talkt to my parents. Since this night, I have had major issues with hallucinations and panic attack, even in the day time. My school counselor wants me to be back on meds, but I don't think that would be rigt for me. What do you think I should do?

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...
I would consider the meds as well...and also therapy.
Better Safe than sorry! It's gotta be stressful having those panic attacks and have to go to school, not getting sleep.
The meds will help you...don't be ashamed to take them...
