I hope you went to the ER. Your discharge plan might be to get you (with some pull from the ER docs) into the rehab or another type of program sooner than you were planning. Please check in when you're back!

Last October I was suicidal and sought immeadiate attention. I went to Intensive Out Patient for several weeks and my meds. were changed.

Whenever I hear that someone is feeling suicidal I cringe... Nothing to mess around with NH!

Reaching out for help isn't making a fuss, that's what we're here for, to bond together and help each other.

Thank you for checking in and it's good to see you're taking action, let us know how the meeting goes.

Thanks for checking in. Glad to hear you are seeing a doctor. Don't hold anything back when you do. Make sure you are completely open about all the stuff going on with you whether it be alcohol related directly or mental health related (although these are certainly related). The Dr.'s job is to evaluate your condition based on everything. It was hard for me to really surrender and come completely clean about everything pertinent when I was first seeking help. So I may be projecting a bit, this may not be an issue for you, but please do tell them everything. Good luck!
