Hi, you asked me to phone and check in with you about how the meds were helping. Well, today I feel like a mess. I have been feeling really depressed and suicidal since... and i cannot function. I am not able to do my work, and when I'm at home, all I want to do is crawl into bed and not exist.
I cannot carry on like this. You told me the meds should take ... weeks to notice an improvement, but I am really battling with this depressive episode.
I have had the odd suicidal intention, but my logic and responsibility for my child kept me from acting on it.
I just don't know what to do anymore, and am phoning you in the hope that you have a suggestion to help me.
