I posted in the psychobabble about faith, but thought more people might read here. I tried to commit suicide last month by overdosing on 5 different meds. I guess I wasn't totally serious because I left a note and my husband found me before I stopped breathing but I was two days on a venitilator and 8 days in mental health unit.
I am now seeing psych twice a week and on same meds as before--prozac 80mg and neurontin 600 tid and ambien at sleep
My husband hid the meds and just gives me them daily but today I tried to search his room for them and I feel terrible.
My doctor does not think I am bipolar but I do not understand why one day I can feel totally normal and then I have a day like this where I really just want to go to sleep and not wake up.
I saw my dr yesterday and really thought I was improving. I am so confused. Would I be better on different meds or am I doomed??
I do not want to go back in hospital. It was awful. Just sat around and stared at each other and could not even use a hair dryer. I refuse to be hospitalized again.
