No one needs me and because of my behaviour over the last few months (all night parties sleeping around going out till 4am every morning while manic then self harming suicide attempts and drug use when depressed) no one loves me anymore.
All I am is a drain to my family they are struggling to look after me.
These are reasons why I should end my life tomorrow when my mum comes to take the kids from dh as I am no longer capable of looking after my own children.

Sweetheart your children need you. You might not be well enough to look after them just now but they know you love them. How can you keep yourself safe? Do you have a crisis team?

Suicidal5833 · 19/02/2014 18:53

I have been up crisis they got me a appointment with my pychiatrist for tomorrow.

Glad you ok. Makeuplovesong thought you had disappeared x

Thank you I'm hoping the pychiatrist will change my meds. If he doesn't that's when I'm thinking about ending it all.

Please tell the psychiatrist what you just put but be clear why and what meds you think would be better if you can! Good luck Smile

Back in October my sister felt just like you OP. She killed herself. We are the family she thought wouldn't care and our lives are ruined and will forever be. Luckily she had no children. Please, please don't do this.

I hope your psychiatrist appointment really helps x

Thinking about you today OP. Tell your psychiatrist about your meds - what are you taking now and how long have you been taking them? What is it about them that you are struggling with?

Suicidal5833 · 20/02/2014 10:14

I take aripiprazole
Sertraline
Sodium valproate
Citalopam

The one I don't like is aripiprazole which is a anti pych and the reason I don't like it is I used to be on a different one and was stable but since they have switched me I've been I'll.

Not citalopram clonazepam.

well at least you can pin-point where the problem is, which is good - hopefully they will be able to find a more suitable med for you. I think it is quite common with any illness to need meds to be tweaked from time to time, so a drug will work well for a while and then the dosage may need to change or the actual drug be changed - you are perfectly within your rights to ask for them to be changed. You sound pretty articulate and intelligent so you just need to be clear to your psych that you have felt worse since starting that particular med. Maybe write it down as if your are anything like me, i change from pretty articulate and wordy to mouselike and muttery whenever i see my counsellor, - then think of all the things i wanted to ask when i've left Blush

He wouldn't change my meds he kept saying I've tried serquel when I haven't he just upped my meds.
