You know, paisleygirl, that doesn't sound like a wise decision at all. I know you're angry. But I can't see where that's in your best interests.
Pain comes. Nearly unbearable pain. Where it feels like you can't walk one step more. But pain goes as well. There isn't a constant level of pain. It's foolish to make permanent decisions in the crest of a period of pain.
Life can get better. It's gotten better for me, and for a lot of people. It can get better for you as well. It might require some difficult and distasteful work. But it can happen.
You need to get your medications attended to. Have you had any recent changes? Since you don't have a pdoc right now, please do go to the ER. Maybe an AP like Risperdal would be as helpful to you as it was to me. It would be a damn shame to kill yourself without finding out. It would be a damn shame for *you*. The closest I ever came to acting on a suicidal impulse was when I was on Wellbutrin. I had a moment of clarity where I realized that I didn't feel this totally jumpy/awful before Wellbutrin. I got angry and thought I'd be damned if I let the Wellbutrin cause me to do something idiotic. The mood stabilizers helped. Risperdal helped a lot, and long term therapy helped a lot.
Don't cheat yourself of the chance to find out what will help you.
