Re: Venting or Bashing--or just needing to know your not alone

[Guest guest]

If it wasn't for this group I would not be here. Seriously. There

was a time when I was suicidal. Even attempted it once, swallowed a

ton of pills but ended up waking in the middle of the night puking

my guts out. I knew exactly how much it would take and what

combination would be needed to do the job. I didn't count on

vomiting.

I stayed extrememly depressed, which is unusual for me as I am

disgustingly perky. Anyway several members picked up on that and

one very special person even called me. Saved my life. I was so

alone and so sick and felt that nothing could or would be done. I

felt useless and abandoned. If I didn't have the support of the

people on this board, I shudder to think of what I might have done.

This board saved my life. Thats why in a post I wrote the other day

that I want each and every one of us to share this web site with our

physicians and tell them to give it to each and every one of their

panc patients. I would not be here, feeling strong and well,

without ya'll. And for that I will be eternally grateful.
