OK. So after 20 odd years of becoming progressively more miserable & incapable of participating in everyday life suicide attempts are bcoming more common. A year or so back I filled a mug with a cocktail of every drug in my cupboard, including many of the different anti-depressants I’ve tried over the years & took the lot. I slept an entire day & awoke incapable of moving without collapsing in spasms. Spent the next 12 hours in hospital being constantly prodded & kept awake. Told I’d taken enough pills to kill most people & was lucky. Seems this method isn’t gonna work. A short time later tried a […]

This whole thing is just so confusing and depressing. Last month I spent 3 weeks in a psych ward. I was brought in handcuffs in an ambulance having swallowed 59 pills and downed a bottle of vodka. The doctors call it an episode. I cut my long hair to above my ears too before the police came. I guess I should fill you in: I had this episode around 2am one night near the end of Feburary.
