    You have that amount, you took that amount, or you're thinking about taking it?

    Obviously you must know why I'm asking.

    What's your general location?

    Do you need the number for suicide hotline?

    So you're trying to commit suicide?

    How old are you? Are your parents around? If you give me your general location (state or province, town, city) I can give you the number for the suicide hotline in that area.

    Things do get better. Why not at least talk to someone about it?

    Why don't we start with you telling me a bit about yourself.

    Are you male or female? How old are you?

    I'm female, a mom. I have a 14 year old son, and a 10 year old daughter. So you see, I do know about teens and teen issues.

    This site is anonymous, so why don't you tell me what's going on, and why you want to take these pills?

    What grade are you in? Are you having problems at school, at home? With a boyfriend or girlfriend?

    I can't help if you won't talk to me. I don't bite, really. :)

    Why not give me a chance and let's see if we can fix whatever is going on, or at least make it better. What have you got to lose?

    I've been where you are. I also suffer from depression, and I've been on Ativan (it did nothing for me)

    Breakups are hard, I remember every one I went through, and the pain from them. But, the pain didn't last forever. It was horrible while I was dealing with it, but I got through it.

    Have you ever talked to your doctor about putting you on antidepressants? They worked wonders for me.

    I'm so glad you came back to talk to me. I was worried when you went offline. So will you do something for me? Will you stick around, talk to me, and WG? Tell us a bit of how you're feeling right now. What makes you feel better when you're feeling bad? Do you have anyone you can talk to in person that you trust? Is there someone that can come over and be with your right now and help you get through this?

    It's hard for most people to understand mental health issues. A lot of people feel that if you're physically fine, then you should be able to get through it, that it's not a real disease, but it is.

    Other than ativan, are there any other things you're doing to help with your mental health issue? Are you seeing a therapist?

    Why don't we try another direction. What brings joy to your life? What do you enjoy doing?

    For me it's time with my animals. I have a small zoo in my house. They're always so calm, they never judge, and when I'm having a bad day, they're always there for me. Do you have any pets?
