I make threats all the time to my pdoc. I get extremely upset. Once I even took an OD right before my appointment with her. She didn't have me committed because she understands that I really don't want to kill myself. She won't punish me by committing me. She tries to help me by getting me to see what the real issues are.

Also, I'm a little offended that you are comparing me to a criminal rapist. I have never in my life broken the law or gotten into trouble...not even in elementary school. I have never in my life been violent towards anyone, other than the playfights I had between me and my little sister.

I never thought for one moment that just because a person is mentally ill that they should be let off the hook for their crimes. Andrea Yates, for example...the mother who drowned her children because she was in a psychotic postpardum depression...many believe that she should be given parole. I don't think so. I think she belongs in prison for what she has done..psychosis or not.

I'm offended that you presume to know what my beliefs are.
