I wish they were helping you learn many many more ways to cope when your thoughts are bad.. as for not having access to your meds? For a long time I had to let my husband lock up my meds, I just was not safe having then all to myself.. I would get 2 days worth at a time. that just covered me in case my husband wasnt home when I need them.. Maybe your Mom can do this for you ?
