Where would you be if you didn't seek professional help?
I had suicidal ideation for many years, but I never had the guts to actually end my life. So, I don't think I would have ever ended my life, but I would have been miserable and probably wouldn't have a job. I also think I would have pushed away my entire family, all my friends (I kinda did that already though), etc.. |

My problems are worse now. Other people's problems are much better.

I have mixed feelings on this. Somedays I think psychiatry caused me more harm than good. Right now I feel differently. I clearly see that while sometimes my theatment was less than ideal, it did save my life on few occasions over the decades.

I wonder sometimes if it has done more harm than good, but I was going way off a cliff. So close to losing everything.
But now I struggle harder in different ways? |

I don't know.
But sometimes I really do feel it has done more harm than good.

Not sure I would have made through the last few years with out it.
I can also see how sometimes we question if it is good or bad.

I'd probably be dead. If not be pretty miserable sad and hopeless. One thing I definetly have gained back is hope. My place may still be a mess I may have some depression episodes, and I may sleep all day but I do have hope now.

Had a failed attempt years a go. I'm sure I would have tried again. had a lot of doubt since my "crack up" 3 years ago. But after falling into the "darkness" last fall I am scared to not have help, I never want to go there again. I will do whatever I need to not be in that "pit" again .... Tigger .

I'd still be here. Without the financial loss.
Can't really say it helped at all

I only had my first, noticeable, manic episode a few years ago. I was a bit psychotic. I would have been hospitalized, I am sure. But I tried meds and have avoided the hospital.
I have seen my p-doc a lot for therapy and she keeps and eye on me. Also my teens do. ![]() |

I'd probably be in jail or homeless.

I'd be saving the world like Superman ... I once truly believed I was an angel sent to earth to save us from all the evil. I was manic *cough*

I would probably be tactless. I have learned a lot about how people see me and how i am not the best at maintaining relationships.

Without a doubt, I'd be dead or so completely insane that there'd be no bringing me back to reality.
