Thank you. I am new here and came in on a storm-cloud of doom and desperation. I've been in a huge depression for three months now and just got back from an appointment with my therapist. My situation is so bizarre I don't even know how to begin. How's this? Sigh. Okay, I was experiencing extreme panic and depression and told my whole family. I got slammed into inpatient by a new MD and they changed my meds three times, discharged me on Seroquel (horrid drug) and then four days later I od'd :-(. Everybody thinks it's b/c I was depressed, but I really think it's because of everything that had happened.

My family had quit my job overseas for me and I have nothing here. By the time I called work it was way too late for me to rectify things. Has anyone here had their family interfere the way mine did?

My life was NEVER this hard before I was diagnosed six months ago.
I feel so sad and alone. I don't even have my cats here. I'm on unemployment and have way less money than I'm used to - by a very long way. It's about 1/4 of what I was making. I am miserable. My family all think I'm insane.
Please help and I'm sorry I sound so sorry.

I created this introduction thread due to the number of introductions posted on the "Bipolar Chat" sticky. The Bipolar Chat that I lead is now scheduled on Fridays at 9 PM EST. It will cover a variety of topics which will be posted in the chat announcement and outlines will also be posted for those unable to make the chats. The first Friday of the month Wingin'it will lead an open Bipolar Chat. Those will Bipolar are also invited to the Depression Chat on Wednesday at 9 PM EST, but there will be significant overlap in topic.
