Hi Jenny,
I just wanted to say that I related a lot to your posting. I too was recently hospitalized for depression, and it also was the lowest I have ever felt in my life. I hate the fact that I have to take any meds whatsoever, but I cannot deny the fact that I became suicidal without them. I am afraid of having to live the rest of my life on meds, I really dont want to do that, but I also know that I have some deep rooted anger issues, and my life has undergone so many downfalls of late that everything has just piled up and I have this great big glob of mixed emotions about everything.
I have real problems getting my anger out, and its not for a lack of trying. It's more like ignorance I suppose, I just dont know what to do to heal all these wounds that I know I walk around with. I know they're there, I know they affect everything I do, but I have no idea how to "reach in and pull them out". Maybe someone else will have some insights about anger.
There are so many possibilities in life...good and bad...but all unforseeable. Suicide is not the answer and never will be, so take your meds, feel better, and try to take life one day at a time if you have to. Thats where I am.
I wish you the best in recovery...and am most grateful to you and all the others who post here, it makes me feel like I have friends who do understand, and that means everything to me right now!
