Old School - I don't know what in Shar's post pushed your button, but while you may be expressing a strongly held opinion, it's not responsive and hardly supportive of Shar's predicament. Your refer to ineffectual "cheesy" therapy, with total disregard for the fact that Shar's post refers to her 10 year relationship with her therapist. It doesn't sound to me that this is a person that Shar just wants to tell to "get lost." It seems pretty obvious that Shar struggles with suicidal ideation, and is conflicted about making this agreement not because she's not suicidal, but precisely because she sometimes is. For her to simply say "I'm not suicidal so forget about it," hardly seems productive. I'm sure Shar would be overjoyed if meds alone did the trick, but that's obviously not the case for her, and I think it insensitive that you would suggest that it is, or at this stage and without knowing a helluva lot more about her, that it could be.
