Oh dear, Racer, that's an awful lot the deal with! I wish life wasn't so hard for you right now. I do find your calmness worrisome. It has preceeded my last two attempts. The feeling of inevitability of death can be so strong when so much else has happened in a short period of time.
I think that whatever the cause, you need to at least add to your current meds to get yourself over the hump. I know that you have had bad luck in the past with public health care providers, but it seems to me you should give the ones where you live now a shot. Even a visit to the E.R. might serve to get you hooked up with a pdoc, social worker, etc.
I also think that getting some of this off your chest with a therapist of some kind would be essential. Sometimes it helps with the trapped feeling I get to lay it out in front of someone else. Explaining it all so it makes sense to someone else helps me to see it more clearly even if they don't have answers for me.
You have many gifts and a good, caring heart. Your sense of humor has made PB a better place and I would miss you. Yours is one of the names I look for when choosing which posts to struggle through. Please do what you can to stay with us. This Too, Will Pass.
