I doubt anyone likes working with someone who's suicidal. I imagine it's a really delicate, nervewracking situation, and you feel responsible. I doubt therapists get a call from a new patient and say, "Gosh, really hope this one's hanging by a thread."
I mean, think about it. Liking it or not liking it is irrelevant. It's whether or not a therapist is capable. Even if a therapist is 100% capable of talking someone off the ledge, it doesn't mean they aren't scared shitless, not about being sued, but because someone's life is in their hands. It's like trying to make it across a lake covered in thin ice without breaking the ice. It must be terribly hard. It's easier to save someone from another person than it is to save them from themselves.

Adderall, 40mg XR & 5 mg reg -- for the ADD.
Xanax, .5 mg as needed -- for the anxiety.
Topamax, 50mg -- still figuring this one out.
MDD, but possibly have some form of Bipolar Disorder. Then again, I could be paranoid . . .
Well, at least I still have my sense of humor.
