> Thank you so much for responding. I can't even say how much it was good for you to say what you said. For a long time I didn't feel like any kind of therapy would help, that since I'm paying someone to hear about my problems they wouldn't care and so therefore it wouldn't matter. At this point though, I am really confused. I ended up in the ER a few days ago from an overdose, I wasn't horrible in my opinion but my boyfriend wanted to make sure I was ok. It helped just to talk to the ER doctor then, he was understanding. I'll call the insurance mental health line in a few hours, I hope they're open on Saturday. Thanks again.
I'm glad you got something from what I said. Keep us in the loop about how you're doing. Taking an overdose is not insignificant, no matter what the outcome. It's a sign that you need support. Please don't hesitate to ask for some.
I really understand about how it can feel like you'd be burdening somebody with your needs. I get that way when I'm struggling with suicidal thoughts, that I'd be wasting people's time with my concerns. You need to have a logical plan in place, so that when you feel that way, you know how you should respond. My plan was: a) thinking suicidal, call crisis line; b) feeling suicidal, go to emergency. When I was actually in those states, there was no way I could come to those decisions. I had to make the decisions when I was well, so that I could use them when I couldn't think straight.
Please, let us know how things are going.
