Guest guest Posted November 29, 1998 Report Share Posted November 29, 1998 Dear Barb, I just wanted to say that I am very sorry that you became so desperate that you took an overdose of medication. From your recent postings to this group, I could see that you were losing hope. Unfortunately, I can only hope that you make the connections in your own life that will give you the support you need, 'cyberspace' in many ways is just as unreal as our state of mind is when we're depressed. Life has to be lived. Body, mind and spirit need to be cared for. I have really been helped by my therapy with a psychiatrist, as well as by support from my husband, friends, my chiropractor and my Yoga teacher. Of course, when I was very depressed, they were all just 'shadows' to me. I didn't 'feel' anything but pain. I have a developmentally disabled child and a loyal husband. In the darkest times, the consequences to them are what has kept me from doing what you did, and I am grateful that I managed to keep a shred of perspective to hang on to. For my RLS and mood disorder, I take a combination of 'pharmaceuticals' and also try out alternative therapies. You are on a lonely road and you need help desperately, please try to hang on and let yourself ask for and receive the help you need from those around you. I wish you health, rest, hope, and love.
