I just want my message to make others think.

Yes G, there were lots of warning signs.

too bad they were missed, but all too often they are,

This child has never really had a chance.

really unfortunate, so sad,

Abandoned by both of her parents and raised by the maternal grandparents,

sometimes grandparents are too old,

she was hospitalized for a failed suicide attempt (pills) last year.

She had been on meds, but unfortunately, I believe she had a personality disorder which is not treated with medication.

meds are the worst option,

I feel that the pharmacutical companies are just performing field studies with the aid of the medical profession,

sorry if I offend anyone in those two industries....


In fact, misdiagnosing and prescribing anti depressants to one with a personality disorder can be dangerous b/c people with this disorder are hopeful about feeling better while on them, then nothing happens.

unfortunately the meds negate any rational thoughts...

I am going to take advantage of my agency's EAP and get some free counseling sessions to help with some of the guilt.

take care of yourself, stay strong,

It's just so awful, such a waste.

She was a beautiful girl.

Thanks again for the support and prayers.
once again, your in my thoughts, stay strong,

g....
