Just curious what everyone’s opinion is.
If you are having thoughts about suicide you might as well go to the hospital. I’ve overdosed a couple of times just because I had no where else to go. I thought I might do something stupid. Don’t let it get to that.
I’d just hate to burden the person on call at CMH.
They don’t mind it’s their job.
When you need it,
Both to keep you safe and others too?
It’s not always when you think as I found out, but it’s best to have someone you can trust tell you when they think you should- and then believe them.
If that’s the case my mom would have me go to the hospital at any hint of problems. I don’t agree with that. Sometimes it’s better to just work it out on your own.
Do you have any guns around?
I don’t own guns. I’m not going to kill myself because I’m scared of pain and don’t know how to do it without pain. Thanks for the concern though.
That means you don’t trust your mom’s opinion, and that’s what I meant.
I had one pdoc- and only one- that I trusted enough to go when she thought I should.
When I get psychotic, my thoughts about what I should do aren’t always whats best for me.
When you’re a danger to yourself or others. When one is psychotic one can’t necessarily make that judgement. It’s the main reason I live with others, now. And I’ve only been in a psych hospital once in fourteen years, so the record speaks for itself.
