My post got deleted lol. Guess I broke some rules. So no more talk of SI

Im not going to the ER or IP but maybe I will call my Dr on Monday if I still feel this way.

H is working nights and I am responsible for the kids when he is gone so I know I will be fine for a few nights.

I think talking to the doctor is a good idea.

I really dont want to end up paralyzed or even more useless than I already am. Seriously starting to doubt my ability to even be successful in this so I guess I probably just wont try. Im really good at giving up before I even try things.

I dont know what I will do now but probably not talk to anyone. If Im not planning to try to kill myself there is no point. They would just tell me to go back on meds which I dont want.

It just makes me so mad that I cant be happy without everyone thinking there is something wrong with me.

I'm also in the same boat that I can't be happy without everyone thinking that i am ill again. But I don't have SI. Why don't you want to be on meds?

Meds make me worse. But I was hoping the major SI would go away once I was off of them because I hadnt dealt with that for 10 years until starting meds and the last 2 years were so bad.

Im ok now. More rational again. As long as the SI is short lived Im not too likely to attempt I dont think so no point in doing anything about it.

The pdocs say I have borderline too I dont 100% agree with most of what they say but I do have some extreme reactions sometimes. My SI was probably just a reaction to them saying Im not doing well when I really am. It really p***ed me off to find out my dr said that. She had asked me if I was hypomanic but withdrew from that quickly and said she wasnt saying I was and that it was just a question when I guess I reacted negatively to her even asking that.

Hmm. It's hard to say. A professional's diagnosis shouldn't depend on how the patient reacts to questions along those lines, or maybe it should? If your symptoms are due to borderline rather than bipolar that would explain why meds don't help.

Their diagnosis came from how I have acted in the past 2 years while trying all kinds of meds that did all kinds of bad things to my mental state. I also do have a fairly major family history of bipolar I guess. But they refused to consider my life before I finally decided to try medication. I do go through major depression for sure which is why I finally asked for help beause it seemed to be getting worse and I didnt want to live like that anymore but hadnt had an attempt or even really any worrisome SI in 10 years.
