Suicidal Thoughts- Im Ignoring Them But I Want Rid Of Them

[gordiescotland1]

Hi there the last few days I have been experiencing suicidal thoughts and racing thoughts I am trying to ignore them I dont know why I am experiencing them. I have no intention of acting on these thoughts. I dont know how to get rid of them. I am frightened of going to see my GP in case I am admitted to hospital straight away. But I want rid of them. I am not on any medication for the mind. So maybe I need to be

I read it the same as gness did. It wasn't worded very well. And how do you know how much experience anyone has already?

//He has been prescribed antidepressants, but (I think) not taking them. //

So if what you say is true and I think I have read similar from him in the past then I maintain he is wasting everyone's time and just hopes to engender self pity.
Lets hope geordie comes back to me with a rebuttal but I won't hold my breath.

Yet more bitching and bad mouthing. I'm not keen on the way I was brought up but at least I learnt 'if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything'.

^Why did you say that then?

[gordiescotland1]

I have been to see my GP and been prescribed citalopram 10mg for 1 week and then to increase to 20mg after a fortnight. I spoke to my GP and he was very sympathetic the fact that I am talking about feeling suicidal is a good thing and my local psych ward just doesnt have enough beds to admit everyone feeling suicdal. I shut myself away for a few days. I have started the medication and not feeling any better yet but I know it takes a while for it to work. I have spoken to the samaritans 3 times over the last few days and I think they do a great job. I was in a bad place and had considered stopping my diabetic medication and eating loads of sugar for a few days and I told my doctor that and he said it is unlikely it would work and I may get terrible complications in months to come. So I am trying to work things through as best as I can the suicidal thoughts are still there but I have continued to reject them for the last 5 days. Thanks for all your feedback. Kyles mum I know someone who jumped off Kinnoul Hill many years ago and it was incredibly sad and unexpected. There really needs to be some fence put up there.

Hey sherr !
I was brought up with the same ethos..I brought my kids up with the same ethos but i also told them to never lie. They dont lie..it has been to their detriment at times but they truly don't know better, that's the truth.It has been painful at times...I don't jest.

Gordie needs to learn manners.

Stop having a go at everyone else For Funks Sake. Seriously...I have been reported tonight for proffering a differing opinion yet people wonder what's happening to CB ?

[anneasquith]

[tonyav]

[gordiescotland1]

//'if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything'.//
One of the most fatuous hoi polloi beliefs. I have many 'not nice' things to say to lots people, particularly paedophiles, members of ISIS, and sometimes even people who waste my time.

Gordie !! Bleeding glad you posted cos you dont usually but forget that as you do have friends here x

Can't tell you how glad I am yoo have gone to your GP....that should sort you out but if after a week or so it doesn't then go back !.You're not ready for MR yet not that that would be a shame, some people need time out. I'm delighted to hear from you and keep in touch with us in future cos ive been reported tonight but you and I both know the young lads who have thrown themselves and both were sons of friends so it's raw for me. Chin up hun....you're on the right track and KEEP in touch xx

We are not obviously part of the patronising gospel singing clique.
Looks like some here just spout what the poster want's to hear rather than give some hard practical advice. :-)

[gordiescotland1]

Thanks kylesmum :)

[kylesmum]

I didnt see you post to me before....doesnt matter. I thought / think you were rude to come on days later and not even say you were alive.....you are though...thats a bonus.

[kylesmum]

No probs Gordie xxx Take care x

[gness]

I didn't report you, KM for having a differing opinion.....I reported you for being rude....and inconsiderate.

Gordie....take care......x
