Hope I did the right thing - Suicide Prevention

[Shnookie]

Hi guys. I have been part of the ADHD support group and have found its members to be supportive and helpful. Besides having ADHD, I was also diagnosed as

bipolar in early 1998. I have gone thru bouts of depression, had a melt down but basically I have been functional, even was my mom's sole caregiver when she had stage 4 pancreatic cancer. There is another group here for anxiety and depression and I decided to check it out tonight. I'm looking at the posts and see one about a young pregnant woman who just found out she's pregnant, doesnt't want her baby,

doesnt love her husband and is talking about taking her own life. No one in the twenty minutes since the post went on responded to her. I immediately reported this to the group administrator expressing my concern even if this is a cry for help something must be done to help this young woman. I also called the National Suicide Prevention Hotline to ask for advice. They instructed me as to some things I could ask her about her current situation. I also assured her that I was there 4 her and sent her a hug. After an hour, I still did not receive a response. I called back the Suicide Prevention hotiline to discuss some of my own issues re suicide. thank

God< I never had any suicidal ideations, or desire to kill myself. I've known too many people close to me who have committed suicide or tried to take their lives.

I feel a little drained because I have taken my anti-anxiety pill Clonozapem and hope that I can eventually fall asleep tonight. Thanks guys for letting me vent. and always giving me your support.
