Hello and Welcome!!
Kell...
I do understand what you are saying.
I have been suicidal most of my life and have more attempts than I care to talk about... I've run out of fingers and toes.
I too am Bipolar! It has taken years.... I never knew what was causing the way I was feeling. Sometimes I was way WAY up feeling like I could fly! Other times I was so down that there was no way I could go any lower.
It's been about 7 years now, thanks to a friend who got me in her truck and said we were going for a ride--ending up at the mental health hospital, that I've been going to a Psychiatrist + Therapist. I've tried many medications and several combinations. I have to say that today I feel better than I have in years.
Please give the doctors a chance.... It may take some time... but it is worth it. The meds do work!!!!! It's just a matter of finding the right ones for you.
Abbie
