It has been pointed out, it is your call as when to call for help. Also, the fact you have posted before that one of the ways of dealing with your ODs is posting about them. I'm keeping in mind that this board allows for this type of disclosure... However, I hope you discuss with your pdoc how that plan is working out for you and the responses and reactions you receive from other posters. Babble can be a adjunct for some but this board is completely out of it's ability when it comes to helping someone in an OD or chronic thoughts of OD as coping. FAQ's on this board are clear as to the instructions of informing the person to get RL help. Many, many posters have instructed you to do just that.....
I also am very puzzled when I hear someone discuss *actively* self-harming with death potential and hearing the it's treated almost like a doc knows it's just what they do.... carry on.... I guess I'm old school but back in the day, this was an immediate ticket to a place where one could be kept safe.
