Transitions - Please read this important post

Another transition.

Remember how I said I was feeling so overwhelmed by the bills and debt?

Remember how I said my marriage was having some difficulties?

Remember that I've talked about my Cystic Fibrosis and  the health issues I've been facing, along with the increased isolation while the flu and cold has been so rampant?

And I guess I didn't tell you about when my son had all of his Valentine Candy in one fell swoop and it sent him into a tail spin and he crawled out his BR window at night and tried to run away...

Well, last Thursday after a confrontation with my husband I just felt like I couldn't handle any more and sent out a signal for help by taking 20 Ambien and trying to kill myself.

Some people would try to keep this secret, but I don't know most of you personally and that's easier to share it.  Plus I want to share what I've learned and experienced in case anyone reading this faces any similar feelings and depression.  So I will be blogging in the coming days as I have time about that.

For right now I will tell you that I was taken by ambulance to the ER and remained unconscious for a very long time - to me.  I have a huge block I have missing!  Slept and slept and probably snored like crazy.  Over 24 hrs. later they transferred me to a Psychiactric Hospital in Atlanta where I was locked in like a prisoner and a crazy person and it was a terrifying experience.

It was an eye opener.

I learned so much.

I met some wonderful people and have some great memories.

I got home this afternoon...

More to come.  I hope you will follow me through this and learn something to help you or someone you care about.

(Sorry.  No pictures about this experience.  You don't grab a camera when you're nearly unconscious being loaded in an ambulance and phone and camera's are not allowed in a Psychiactric Hospital!)
