I came to NT from PC. I have major depression, treatment resistant with suicidal tendancies. I have had 4 failed attempts. I also have CRPS. Lately the depression has been gaining, my meds losing and all of it is draging me under:confused::eek:

Hi Pooh, I hear you. And I think that I understand where you are coming from as I also have RSD and severe depression. By joining this group you will find many understanding people who will give you all kinds of support and understanding that people around you may not have. Lisa

Rushing to catch an airplane but wanted to welcome you pooh to our "family" here...we aren't going to let go and watch you get dragged..:hug:

I can only offer you my sincerest empathy on living with chronic pain:hug:!!! And my plea that you not act on your desire to have the pain end by killing yourself....those left behind would be forever changed by this action.

Please remember that you are not alone...we "get it" here..we do understand the lure of suicide but we know that it isn't the answer. :grouphug:

Pooh, My Friend
 

Pooh, you were among the first to befriend me here on NT, support me through surgeries, share of yourself, give when you were too tired even to strike a computer key. I feel so much sadness for you right now learning of your plight, and feel as well that I want to reach out to touch you somehow even through chat room if that would help. I know I missed the party the other night, my fault. I want to be here for you now, and to show you your meaning to me/us as a tremendous person of strength, value, heart. Do please take good care of yourself in the meantime, knowing I am willing to reach out and talk through this difficulty. I am in the chat room holding space. Yep, there I am.

BIG HUGS for YOU,
Mark56:hug:

Pooh, I hope you and Mark connected in the chatroom last night...reaching out for support when you are feeling so desperate is a hopeful sign...surrounding yourself with people who care is the antidote for depression. I know it won't lessen your pain, but you will know that you are not alone with it. :grouphug:

Didn't Connect in Chat
 

Thank you Alffe- we did not connect either in chat or pm, so I wait holding my breath for Pooh.:Sigh:

Our Michael would be 52 years old today had he not killed himself in Jan. of 1990. I put this here pooh, because his suicide just about destroyed our family...we survived it but have never "gotten over it".

You do not want to leave this aftermath behind for those who love you.

I hope you'll check in here today. :hug:

pooh I am glad you found your way here. we have talked before in other forums here and a few times in the chats. I want you to know your not alone even tho it may seem like those around you dont understand.. they may not really understand or get it but we do here. can you have your meds changed .I know how much of a hassle that is but it is good to have medications that actually help/work.
I am glad you failed at your past attempts. and I can tell you the many people you have worked with as nurse in hosp and medical field with since are also very glad and blessed you failed your attempts.
I too failed my attempts . we must always keep that one thing a common factor between us .
letting go ... getting out some worries, issues ,thoughts is a good thing to do if you can.
do you see a pro talk doc many of us are or have and it is helpful and healing .
I hope you are having a better day today and that this week for you is full of light ,low in pain and blanketed in good mood and positive energy .
also hope you keep posting :grouphug: we care !!

Thanks for caring
 

Sorry, I am slow to post. I am here, had my meds changed yesterday and spent most of today snoozing. Hopefully will be able to sleep tonight. As many of you know lack of sleep with pain and depression just is wrong.

Remembering the Wizard of Oz from my youth, in the Poppy Field, the spell was Sleep, Sleep, Sleep. It was irresistable.
May you sleep restfully,:hug:
