Well I was suicidal I have been for a while because I am so sick of this chronic illness & the fact that it has so much impact on me that am really no where close in life where I want to be or always thought that I would. I've never been so depressed in my life lately at all. I wish so **** much I would have went to school right after I graduated highschool(when I was 16 years old). This illness literally ruined me & my dreams. I wish so bad college could have been fun for me like it's supposed to be. That was pretty **** hard was for me to keep it all in. Man I can not stop obsessing about it..sorry...I'm rambling.. sorry

Steve The military hospital said they'd only admit me if I was suicidal or homicidal. So they sent me back home. I guess I am grasping at straws cause I want this gone. Looking for an extra durable strong bandaid

Yes I was 2 months ago for being straight up SICK of this disorder & life. I felt kinda funnny & pretty much stuck to myself and laid in bed. They put me on a strong dose of Lexapro & Risperadal which made my anxiety absolutely WORSE then ever. I almost fainted when they called me for breakfast one morning & all the doctor told me was that it was Klonopin withdrawals because I told him I wanted to try to wean the dosage I'm on....A couple people there overdosed on heroin(1 drug I'm glad I never touched in my life) or alcohol(which I've have overdosed a few times myself I almost died from alchohol poisoning a couple times..) There were a lot of different people it a pretty weird experience..... All they did for me was kept giving me medication & taking vital signs and all that. They told me my thyroid was high. Which I'm starting to worry about now... They kept having group meetings but I didn't go to all of them...This ain't something as a guy I'm open with...but whatever that's what this forum is for (My apologies to the site-director for my in napropriate posts, my fault) They told me there was relaxation classes & I asked every single day I was in there about them & I never got to go to one ONCE.........

BAck from the dr!!!! I saw her she refused to give me an iv or admit me. ;0( She gave me some new meds to try. I went to pharmacy and called dr quack and cried how upset I was. He bascially didn't say much other than I need to wait to see him. We went to the pharmacy where I was crying and literally feeling like I was on the brink of a break down. I knew there was a sanctuary in the hospital. So I left David and walked around till I found it. I went in there and cried and prayed. I came back to David and 2 min later my name was being paged. The dr I had seen wanted to see me back upstairs. She redid my blood pressure and pulse my pulse was at 130 at one point. BP was 116/87.They did the thing where they do it lying down , sitting up and standing up. Than she ordered a whole slew of blood work (this was after office hours). Told me she'd call me tomorrow to touch base and to check and see how I was doing as well as what the blood work showed. If it shows the right things she will walk me down to er and have them give me the IV. =0) I nearly cried again. She said she was sorry that I was feeling so hopeless and she wanted to make my weekend as smooth as possible. =0) I left the lab and walked to the sanctuary and prayed for more strength and told him thank you. So now I am in a holding pattern. I am tired......I have cried alot today. =0(

HI shedav6, I've read some of your recent posts and I really, really feel for you. A few weeks ago, my doc suggested that i go into the hospital. I was pretty much in agreeement that I needed to be somewhere where people could look after me and help me to recover. I had gotten to my lowest point and felt like i was in a panic 24/7. Stupidly, I didn't really think about the psych ward- I just thought i'd be "in the hospital". (This, coming from a nursing student!) When I realized I would be admitted to the psych ward I decided against it because I'm a person who's very sensitive to my environment and I felt like I may just get worse in the psych ward being around the other patients. If that doesn't bother you I would say go for the hospitalization. Especially since you can't eat or drink right now, you may be able to get an IV. Best of luck Sarah This message was edited by am on 11-7-03 @ 6:33 PM

Yeah I meant like in a mental ward or something. I too wish at times I could have a lobotomy and they could zap the parts of my brain that have gone berzerk causing me this suffering I ask about the hospitalization cause the last time I saw the mental case manager she asked me point blank if I thought I needed to be hospitalized. It scared me 2 weeks ago but sounds appealing now. That way iv's for food for strength and 24 hour ppl checking on me. Counseling whenever.....
