Hi Sandy,

It's nice to meet you. Maybe someone could tell us a definition of being "in crisis." None of my previous therapists ever even used that term, and it still sounds strange to me. I would say, though, that you you don't feel safe, that is probably a crisis. Or if you are afraid that you are going to do something that you don't want to do. It's really hard for me to apply it to myself. I guess I rely on Angela to tell me if I am in a crisis - we talk to each other frequently, and I'm much more likely to call her than a therapist.

No, the experience you had the last couple of days was not your fault, so you don't need to feel like you did anything bad. In fact, you stayed in control even though you felt like acting out. That's good!

I'm doing ok right now. Can't stay away from the St. John's Wort though - not taking it is a whole lot worse than taking too much. I'll try to keep it at the right level though. I know what the right amount is, but I'm a stinker about experimenting, I guess.

Have a great day, and let us know how it goes tomorrow! I hope you stay around the forums - I can always use another friend.
