On the verge?...

For the last year or so I've been getting 'episodes' of being depressed and really happy...

Well... for the last few years actually - although recently they have been getting worse to the point where I no longer cut as a way to release pain.. I overdose on Paracetamol...

I have overdosed 3 times:

1st time: 10 tablets or 5000mg
2nd time: 15 tablets or 7500mg
3rd time: 21 tablets or 10,500mg

(I've never been to a doctor or the ER following an overdose.)

I've also been suffering from Anorexia Nervosa since I was 12; now I am 15.
So technically I guess they are linked... I'm trying to get better on my own, although it is hard.
To be honest I'm scared what will happen if I don't do something... maybe next time I'll take 50?.. Who knows?

I would go to the doctors, but I haven't been since I was little and to be honest I find it petrifying.

I just need to know what to do... I could tell my friend but again I find it petrifying.
Please give any advice possible... I'm on the verge at the moment.

well going to the doctors is the best bet but to not be so petrified have someone there with you that you know cares for you and will keep you calm :)

I don't feel comfortable answering a lot of this, because I really don't know too much about overdosing and such. The fact is that it is dangerous, and sometimes things are hard to overcome alone and you should never be afraid to seek out some help from someone. There is a huge chance that the two are linked in some way shape or form, the fact that they're resulting from mental/psychological problems which are formulating in your brain. It is going to be petrifying to tell someone, but sometimes we need to take the leap in order to receive the much needed help that we need in order to get by on these things.
