I just have to get this off my chest. The more I think about it the more it pisses me off.
So I come to you for help. I'm only mildly suicidal (not currently struggling with major suicidal thoughts), & don't want to be locked up. Yet you lock me up "for my own good". Do you really think if I wanted to kill myself I couldn't do it in a mental hospital? Seriously it doesn't matter where I am if I want to take action to end my life I can succeed no matter where I am. Thanks for ruining my last desperate attempt to reach out for help.

 Probably does more harm than good. If someone is not ready for what is offered (therapy, medication--that's all these places provide); it's useless. Plus, where I was sent for 5 days, I only saw a psychiatrist twice (20 minute visits) and went to a group class once a day. Useless waste of time.  Humpty Dumpty, I am so sorry you are suffering so much!

Hmmmm mildly suicidal never got me locked up, it was the attempting it or the not mild cases that did.
You are right that you can do it where ever you are if the intent is there. I was being discharged because supposedly I was ok when I knew I wasn't. Ended up in ICU in a coma before they ever got me discharged. So glad that dark period of my life is over that lasted 13 years. It is a shock I survived it. Had no idea at the time just how much my home environment was such a driving force into my depression. Once I got out of the marriage I started to heal. Back to being healthier now than ever before in my life. No lockup necessary & am surrounded by amazing, wonderful, supportive people who are better than any of my family ever was all 54 years of my life before finding my freedom. My major depression was definitely situational & no therapy understood what was going on

You know, what's funny is that I was recently hospitalized for suicidal intent and they'd constantly ask me, "do you have any 'plans' today?", to which I'd reply "what am I going to off myself with? The plastic spoons you guys hide from us behind the counter? Or the foam shampoo in shower? Mmmmm, sign me up." I was serious about my want to die, but thoughtful enough in that death by plastic utensil didn't sound pleasant.
Luckily, most of the nurses enjoy that style of humor. You have to, to survive in there.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
