** Trigger warning **
Do not read this if you are feeling unstable or you get upset easily.
HISTORY: I have one suicide attempt in 2014, and numerous attempts back in 2010.
I am now on several meds and I have had some "better" days lately. So, I do kind of think the meds are working - but then I still have bad days too (dark days is what I call them)..... But I had been feeling like I finally broke out of my depression that had me in a very bad place (mentally) for several years.
SITUATION: Okay, that all said.... I was driving home from work on Tuesday. Kind of just zoning out as I drove. Mentally numb. When my subconscious saw an area in the construction zone that I was driving through that was a great place to crash my car (and I sort of remember thinking - F*** it). My subconscious started veering toward the wall....... My conscious mind SNAPPED back and I jerked my car back into its lane and safely drove home.
But this concerns me.
Is my depression coming back?
Do I have these mental vacations often?? And if so, am I putting anyone else at risk?
Should I be worried??
THOUGHTS?
