I also had him speak with two psychologists. After my last suicide attempt he actually read the depression information I brought home from the hospital. So, I guess, in my case, I had to use every resource I could find!!

Thanx for your posts. I have thought of giving my mother a book or info off the net, but Im kinda in two minds about it.

Because I havnt had a proper diagnosis from the doctor, my mother doesnt seem to think I have anything wrong with me, yet she knows Im on AD's. So if I take her info thats about depression, or whatver, I know what she'll say, "Dont be silly we all feel a bit like that at times but you havnt got that" I can hear her saying it! I dont think she likes to admit that I have a problem, I suppose i didnt at first, but now I wish i did have a diagnosis. Im just not ready for another row with her yet!
