I Just had the scare of a lifetime.


A good friend of mine from school almost killed herself on klonopin a few minutes ago. As a conclusion to her chronic depression. I was talking to her on aim at the time, and when she went away I thought she actually took it (She has 13 mg's, 10 is a fatal dose for someone her size). Thankfully she only took 2 mg's, while I scrambled around the house to get the school directory so I could find her address and call poison control. She lives outside boston, so hopefully I'll go see her sometime this week.


Jesus christ, my heart is still racing.

Damn dude thats scary!

I have a friend, Joey, whos a big druggie and is always pushing his limits and such. He does a lot of shrooms and so on and I'm always worried hes going to get in too deep. I'm also friends with his gf (I actually introduced the 2 a few years back ) and she usually keeps him from doing anything too stupid. I still worry sometimes tho, great kid, bad habits.

Agreed.

By the rote mastery of this art, your firing efficiency will rise by no less than 120%. The difference of a 63% increase to lethal proficiency makes the master of the gun katas an adversary not to be taken lightly.

Psycologist

Psychiatrists know next to nothing about mental health... really. Get her to go to a Psycologist, get some therapy for whatever is the wrong, then if needed the Psycologist will recomend her going to a Psychiatrist for medication.

I've dragged people to hospitals who'd done simular things FAR too many times.

I know the feeling man.

One morning, around 2 AM, I got a phone call about.. two years ago now... my sister calls, sounding really out of it. She says "Mr.Vic, please, don't let my children forget me, please? (sob sob) Don't let them forget I loved them..." click.

Okay she's in Texas, I am in Maine....

Thanks sis. So I called my Dad who was 40 min away from her, and he, being the surly and grumpy person he is when called at two am was like

"What do you want this better be good."

Of course, at this point, I was not in the mood for his attitude, so I said:

"No it's two in the morning, you know this isn't good, Sister just called me, I think is going to kill herself."

"What, what are you talking about??"

relay story..

"F@#$, all right we'll take care of it, where's her husband..."

I nearly asked "HOW THE F@#$ should I know?" but thought better of it.

Long story short, she was 100% A-Ok afterwards.

I know how you feel, you did the right thing man, and relax, and be there for her when she needs you.

What's really wierd is a drunk suicidal person, this one chick was drunk and said that she wanted to end her life, she told everyone she would hit a telephone pole. So her friend took her keys, later she took off running full speed and smacked a telephone poll , happend to my Dad's girlfriend's friend. Good think she was drunk.

That's true for a lot of things, but if she's got a biological disorder that causes her to be depressed - i.e. manic depression, bipolar disorder, et cetera, she can talk until she's blue in the face but it won't do a thing.

My dad's bipolar, nasty, nasty disease. When he's on his medicine, he's great. When he's off them, well, he's getting his second divorce and none of his kids talk to him. You put the pieces together.

Bipolar sucks

Was told I had it a few years back, got stuck on Prozac. That stuff seriously fucks with your head. When I was on it, I felt shit - I ended up slipping in school. I stopped taking it, took me a few weeks to "adjust", but I was doing alot better without it.

I feel more sorry for her because she survived a suicide attempt, not that she's depressed. Trying to end yourself but failing must be horrible. You have to live with all the treatment and stuff, and you'll never just be able to let it go.

Sorry, raiden. My best wishes.
