Still Feeling Bad--poss triggs

Hi all. Don't you just love this time of year when you are suppose to feel nothing but great happiness and instead all you can do is cry.
I am trying to make it thru the holidays.Saw my therapist on Monday and Wednesday and talked to my DR every day. Dr has changed 2 meds this week---actually just upped them to see if it will help. He is being great about not insisting I go to the hospital right now. Unfortunately, he called today right during a family emergency and I was not doing well at all. My mother-in-law had called and she was having chest pains and disoriented. We were trying to get an ambulance, my husband was screaming at me, it was pretty awful. My doctor called right after DH had left to go to his moms. I was upset from what had been going on. Did manage to convince DR that I did not need to go into hospital---but have promised that I will after Christmas if I am still having trouble controlling the suicidal thoughts. Sorry---didn't mean to ramble on. Debbie

You are not alone in not feeling a part of the "holiday cheer" that goes on. I haven't been too thrilled with holidays for the past few years either.

peace and love,

Thanks Sue, It's great to know that there are people who understand. My DH just rolls his eyes and asks if I'm taking my meds.I have spent the evening scrubbing bathrooms and wrapping the last of the gifts. There is really nothing left for me to do until tomorrow when I can begin some of the food prep. So now, it has hit really hard again. I want to talk to my DR. Think he'd mind a call at 11:08 PM. hehe Oh well, I'm going to go read for a while and remind myself that if I take all those pills, I'll probably just get sick!\ Debbie
