Nikki-
Sounds to me like your meds are not doing what they should be. Be sure to let your pdoc know about this struggle. I am trying to look at suicidal thinking as a symptom of my depression and (this is the hard part) report it to the dr. like I would a fever or other physical problem. I do understand how difficult this is, I have fought this for many years.
Could you possibly begin to open up to a sibling about your illness so they could be an ally when you do tell your Mom?
I also know how the years ahead can loom like some dreadful mountain. The best way to deal with it is one step at a time. A cliche but true, at least for me. There will be times to come that are easier. Quilter
