> I'm not sure. I guess Dr. Bob would let me/us know if he thought so and the subject of meds keeps coming up so I think we could keep our communications here. But if you genuinely would feel more comfortable on the Social Babble, then let me know. I really don't know where they would draw the line.

Second, my experience with Zoloft was not very good. For one thing, I think it took entirely too long to kick in in the first place. What would that solve? This would surely be prolonging the agony. How I wish there was another solution, but I don't think there is one. Only my doctor could come up with an answer to this quandary. Thanks for your suggestion anyway.
>I see your point.
I was thinking more about what you said about feeling like going to the hospital even though there's nothing they can really do there. It made me think back to when I was feeling suicidal and would call a friend or go somewhere where I would be around people. It was kind of a survival instinct -- I knew I needed to be around people at that moment in order to be safe, to ensure that I didn't follow through on any suicidal thoughts. I was wondering if your need to go to the hospital was something like that.Lynda
