I just might do it

Very true, never like to preach, but...if it has happened once to this degree, it has a habit of repeating itself. I worried about talking about it openly with my doctor at first. When he would ask me if I was having thoughts about it, I felt a need to go into a long explanation. They know it isn't an uncommon thought in most everybody to some degree, that most everybody has wondered about it and the thoughts are gone almost as fast as they came. There is some variance in that last sentance, everybody a little different. Then there are the times, like I descibed about me, it came, it came hard and wasn't going to leave. That one even scared me. He was concerned about it and we reacted to it in the manner it needed to be, we changed the med dose. The fact remains, he didn't think I was loony and to be commited or some thing. It was ok to go to him about, actually did it over the phone in that case. The point is this, it came, it was serious and it may come again, without being needed. The med should do the trick, if it doesn't, it needs to be discussed. Yours didn't appear to work, from my distance. Thats my not so humble 2 cents.

Yup and very pleased it has, beleive me I am. The point is, why put up with it at all? Very often drugs are your friends, sometimes it takes a while to find the one that works better. But when you do, it stops or lessens the intensity of those feelings. I consider that to be a good thing. Depression has a nasty habit of feeding on it self and odd as it may sound in some cases we even like it. Might not know we do, but some of us get into places where it goes on for so long, it's about all we know anymore it seems comfy. Always your call. It's how I look at it and what I needed to do about it. In my case it wasn't an antidepressent that was needed and life is so much better now.

It does for me too. I feel like my emotions are just so unpredictable. My psychiatrist says that thats part of the Asperger's. As we have alot of trouble with emotional understanding.

exactly.... so why let emotions get the best of you?

happy or sad.... life would suck if it were competely one or the other.

i think this is the root for things like heaven and hell.... these concepts are just justifications for these irradic emotional states we experience.

it's all propoganda!

I think I know were the starter of ths topic is coming from.
