Good to hear that you finally got some sleep! Hopefully the ambien will allow you to sleep well every night? I don't know anything about it, as I am, like I said before, a true believer in Trazodone. But AMBIEN--it has such a melodious (sp?) ring to it.
Contract killing? I never even thought of that! My husband gets pretty angry with me when I discuss this particular characteristic of my chronically bad mood. Last night he asked me how I felt on a scale of 1 to 10, and I told him "3", with "1" being dead. He pointed out that "0" is dead.
You mentioned that you see your Dr. once a week, which sounds like it helps. Does that person ask you regularly about the suicide ideation? Mine never did, so I figured they didn't find me compelling enough to keep around as clients. I do think that most people, even psych specialists, just can't believe that anyone would entertain these ideas. Especially for those of us who are good "fakers", as you described it. If a person isn't being histrionic, crying, and being dramatic, then they must be OK?? Sometimes you need to know the right questions to ask, instead of focusing on the possible solutions. Or lunch, or the family vacation to the Bahamas.....
This line of thinking is pretty morbid, and I hope that there aren't a lot of teens lurking around here. "Don't try this at home, folks"....Take care,
Shirley
