today I am having a really hard time with feeling overwhelming anger, sadness, frustration and wanting to die.I just want to fall asleep and never wake up. I took my klonopin like I am supposed to,but its not working.
the pdoc told me to call over the weekend if I need to, but I don't want to bother him. Besides I see him tomorrow anyways.
I just don't know what to do right now.

If you think you can't make it through the night, call your pdoc. It won't bother him, he told you to call over the weekend. If you just need to feel safe, you could go to the ER. I am sorry you are going through this.
Thanks for this!

Call him!
Don't judge that if you call him you'll be bothering him....he told you to call. I've learned with my past episode that medication intervention needs to be started ASAP, hopefully before the train is going full speed...if ya know what I mean.

Feeling a bit down now. I am going to take my klonopin and hope that works. I don't want to be at work. I'd rather be at home cuddled up under my covers and napping.

Crashing hard now. Want to cry. Can't do it. Just wish I could fall asleep and not wake up. I keep trying to remember that my husband and son love me and would be devastated if I wasn't here anymore, but part of me thinks they'd be better off without me.

They love you and need you. Think about their grieving if you were gone. It would be something that they would have to live with for the rest of their lives. Have you been in touch with your pdoc yet?

I'll be honest, the above post concerns me.

I go to my pdoc in about 3 hours. I am going to talk to him about everything. I know that the only way he can help me is if I am completely honest with him.
I know they love me and would miss me terribly, that's why I need to get better....but it's taking so long. I'm frustrated and sad.

went to the pdoc, he is going to put me back on lexapro and wants to see me again on Friday because he is still concerned. He made sure I have therapy this week, too. He wants as many eyes on me as possible!

As much intervention as possible is key to getting better... Also, it takes time. Be good to yourself and know you're now doing all you can do with the tools that you have.
Keep us posted (((hugs)))

Hang in there. You have done well to keep things together so far. And you have reached out to people who can help you. I hope this settles for you soon. Look forward to your therapy, as well pdoc appointment

Thanks sugahorse! I am really trying to keep things together and it's not easy, but I'm doing it.
