I was thinking about posting in 'students', but there seems very little activity there.
Today, in psych class, the instructor played a scene from "The Dead Poets Society". It was the scene where a student commits suicide after his father disapproves of his acting in a play, tells him that he will go to a military school, and then study medicine.
I didn't know right away if the scene would upset me, but I had an idea it might. It did, and it's been a bit of a chore keeping thoughts out of my head. I took my meds, and I'm waititng to go to sleep. I might take some more Seroquel if I can't.
Do you think it would be unreasonable, or would I seem wimpy if I asked the instructor to tell me if that sort of thing is coming up? I would feel stupid leaving a class for that sort of thing, but suicide scenes are a big trigger for me.
Thanks for your help guys,
Dee.
