Well, I have given this a lot of thought and here is what I have come up with.
When I saw her on Thursday I tod her that I thought my suicidality increased when my psychiatrist put me on a stimulant for my ADD. At which point she said,”OK,let’s try this.” She typed ou a schedule handed it to me and said,”If this doesn’t work or you aren’t willing to do it then you are beyond help.”
When my psychiatrist originally put me on the stimulant she went ballistic because she anticipated problems with my seizure disorder and before I was put on that medication I had been doing so well and hadn’t had any suicidal thoughts or feelings. So I think it just pissed her off that someone messed with all the progress we made.
I told her I didn’t appreciate being told I was beyond help. She told me she didnt say that. I told her she did. She told me that she was srry that I got that from what she did say. I then asked her whatshe said if it wasn’t wht I believe I heard. Sh told me that she said that we let our moods take over and we sometimes don’t do all we can to take back control. As I got off the phone I called her a liar.
That’s just it. It is kind of hard to find someone else when you are so close to the person. Plus this is the first time in the 3 years I have been seeing her that she has been out of line.
I ran into my conselor a a hocky meet and I told er today that the only reason I went was because I thought she would be there and she said that she was glad that I attended and that when one is depressed they should keep busy.
Well, the meds that my psych. pt me on was for ADHD and I would have no problem going off of those. But I have been told I am going to have to take anti-depressants for the rest of my life dut to my suicidal tenedencies.
Not a whole hell of a lot. Like I said I saw my counselor today. We determined that my suicidal ideations are a combination of the meds my psychiatrist put me on and issues with my mom. I am going to be playing hockey on friday and that is basically it.
I saw my counselor today and we talked. She had me contract for safety and said that if I flt suicidal to give someone a call. So I will. I am sorry you aare going through the same bs I am. Sucks doesn’t int?
Hey! How are you? I have had a rough couple of weeks. As I am sure you have heard/read by now, I attempted suicide last night. Luckily, I ran in to my counselor at a hockey meet so I was a ble to talk to her yesterday and come up with a plan to help me get through the night. I spoke to my Psychiatrist and told him that I needed to be taken off the Adderall because it was making me feel this way and he finally gave in and prescribed something different. I called my counselor today and she had me contract for safety until tomorrow when she will see me. Hopefully, it won’t result in hospitalization. If it does, then you will know that is why I am not on. BUt I don’t think it will.
Hey! I am bored and I wish you were online, as you are a good source of amusement for me and we generally have something interesting to talk about. Shout me!
Hey! How are you? I am ok. I see my counselor in a little bit. Which got me thinking about you. Have you, recently, seen your counselor? I am sure that you will find that your counselor was just getting to know you during your first appt and that you guys will start making progress towards recovery soon. Give me a shout anytime you feel like it.
Good luck!

lol. I am glad you had a good day. I don’t know how my counselor is, considering I haven’t seen her since thursday (even though I wish I were, lol). I am sure she is doing well though.
