Jar Head 0811
Good evening All,
I am service connected for PTSD (70%) and I recently tried committing suicide by getting drunk and taking 50 Tylenol PMs (I was in a dark place at the time). My therapist wanted to have me committed, however there were no beds available. I have since quit drinking and I am in therapy and taking medications, though it doesn't seem to help. My therapist has also put me in an alcohol treatment program, though when I went and saw him it was like all my other therapy sessions. I am scheduled for a re-examination soon and I am wondering what to do and what may happen. Any and all comments are welcome and I appreciate all the help.
