5. I can't sleep.
Is there anyone I can talk with???

I am feeling really fragile. Unfortunately, the only person who answered this post was pretty thick.

I said, "I'm not OK."

"Yes you are."

Uh huh. Yes, I'm thinking about taking a bottle of pills and I'm OK. Sure.

6. You need to call a Dr. We are not qualified for that kind of thing here.

8. Yes there are emergency numbers. You do know that.
I'm sorry LH, but this is just not appropriate. We are not mental health professionals here. This is a message board. If you feel like you are suicidal this is NOT the place to come for guidance or advice. Sorry.

10. 1-800-784-2433
Open 24 hours a day.

NO ONE on DU can provide you the help you need. No one is qualified, and it would be grossly unethical for any of us to play doctor. I understand you have problems, but you're asking the wrong people for help. You have a severe medical condition, and you need medical help.

9. I'm not 'thick' at all....................
Edited on Wed Oct-22-03 03:36 AM by BigDaddyLove
I was simply pointing out that no matter how you feel right now, you are ultimately 'O.K.', as in....this too shall pass....and it will.

One way or the other, I hope that you feel better.

Best I can do.

11. She Has a Medical Problem
Your response was undoubtedly well-meant, but it's not an appropriate one in this case, which involves a serious medical condition. She needs urgent medical care, not a pat on the head.

14. Actually, no.
I don't think I am long for this world. Sorry to miss ROTK. I had a premonition I wouldn't make it. I've tried, but I can't stand the pain anymore.

16. Ladyhawk, please read this.

We are very concerned about you, but the members of this message board are not qualified to give you the help that you need. You need to talk to a professional. Please call your own health professional, or else call a crisis hotline: 1-800-784-2433

I am sorry, but I have to lock this thread. I urge you to go get the help that you need.
