> Maxie I understand where you are coming from but weren't you in the crisis center not long ago suicidal? Not sure you will get a lot of support on your plan. Talk it over with you doc and sleep on it. See how the weekend goes also as seems you kind of crash and burn on weekends. Ultimately it's your decision and yours alone. Love Phillipa
Yes, Phillipa. I was suicidal just before I got my job. But you know what? I still think about suicide because I am not happy. I really enjoy my new job but I am not getting happiness from it. Maybe I am expecting too much. But when I was unemployed for 18 months I used to think that once I got a job, I would be happy.
You are right though about the weekends. I think it is because I always have to be up and energetic for my job and it DRAINS me so much.
I won't do anything until I get the go ahead (or not) from my psychiatrist.
Thanks Phillipa.

Being happy doesn´t mean the pain is gone. you just bury it deeper.
