120 mg Cymbalta drank hard liquor over Labor Day Holiday and became severely depressed with thoughts of leaving and plans to commit suicide.
If my suicidal thoughts have gone do I still need to be seen?

Hi rb, please please see your doctor and discuss what happened and how you felt! Remember that suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. If you ever feel like this again, please call 911.
Every person on this earth has a purpose, and so do you. People love you, think how they would miss you if you did some harm to yourself.
Please post again, let us know how you are doing... we care.

Someone that once tried to end their own life but was happy it didn't work out said; Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem" even if that problem persists a long time.
With pain comes depression and you do need to seek medical attention immediately if you are still feeling this way.
The alcohol could have played a huge role in this as to take it along with anti-depressants, anxiety medications, and pain meds is not only dangerous but also the alcohol will act as a further depressant only making your mind think worse about an already difficult situation.
After 11yrs in chronic pain with no cure, severe depression, anxiety, etc I can tell you that you truly can find purpose in your life that may never take away the physical pain but can help your mind deal with all that has happened in life and even the pain itself.

hey rblk,if whatever kinda meds your on and they stopped workin for you when you got loaded ,you should rethink getting your drink on. I know it was a holiday weekend and sometimes holidays really suck.i know this weekend really sucked,it was my birthday and i was alone for it. so i watched movies and just hung out by myself.All of my so called friends were nowhere to be found.I packed up my fishing rod and tackle,and set off in search of the great outdoors.well i fished for about 4 hours and got in touch with nature. to me fishing is just a way to think about my life and what has become of it.even when im alone i can still find find ways of being gratefull that im alive.so the next time you feel that "i don't need this stinking life just take a minute and think of how good you have it.you got a computer and you know of a website where you can find someone to talk to. give it a try and see if it works.it does for me and it will for you too. send me a post anytime you want or you just want someone to shoot the shit with... pete
