else... you might mention to your pdoc that the parnate alleviated your suicidal impulses...( i'm assuming, of course & that's dangerous i know) that this was true for you, yes?
if this guy is fairly open and you are convincing, you should be able to make him see your point of view... offer him a pact as well..." if you trust me and give me the parnate, i will honor that trust and not do anything to damage it"
and of course you have to mean it...just my 2¢ from one stubborn to another... :)
good luck

> I do have another doctor but since then there's been a fairly serious suicide attempt involving pills and I'm not sure he trusts me entirely yet. I've been good recently though. He may reconsider enventually. I guess I did not express myself clearly. My doctor is actually pretty nice and fairly open to my ideas. He just doesn't want me to kill myself with pills he has prescribed. I suppose I can't blame him but I am recovered to a large extent. I"m very stuborn. I always get my way even if it takes years. Plus the Parnate would be for SP (more effective than anything else I've tried) rather than for depression although it wouldn't hurt.
