September 10 is World Suicide Prevention Day .
Please hold on, anyone thinking of committing suicide.
The only time I seriously considered it was during early waxing
crescent moon in early July, 1992. At the time I was on
lithium and haloperidol. I was going to take a full bottle of
lithium, some cold or allergy medicine, and some alcohol.
However after having a small amount of alcohol I felt a
bit better and called my psychiatrist and he told me to stop
taking the haloperidol. I did so, and after that I used haloperidol
only as needed, not on a regular basis. (I am now on moderate
doses of divalproex and olanzapine.)
