@jimhd How wonderful that you fill your life with a variety of activities. That is so important! Depression is the one thing that will not get better with bed rest. Your life style shows great wisdom, Jim. Thanks for allowing us to get to know you better, you are an asset to our group here at Mayo Connect. Teresa
(PS I like what you said, "depression doesn't seem to live by any rules." So true!)

I'll say it again we don't know how many milligrams she took. Even if she took 4mg. I think she should be alright, but I'm not in the medical field so who knows.

Hi Gail,
There are several ways to send an emergency message. I recommend that you do BOTH of these:
1. Click REPORT to the right of the message that you are concerned about. Mark the message as [URGENT] and explain the situation.
2. Send a message to the moderating team using this form https://connect.mayoclinic.org/contact-a-community-moderator/ Again mark the message as [URGENT].

Thank you for the information. I click the Report, but i don't think I said urgent. I hope your post stays on this site so we can continue to have access to it. I may have over reacted, but i thought that was better than doing nothing in case there was really a problem. Gail

Georgette12 posted 2 hours ago that she had taken 4 valium and was going to sleep. I'm worried about her!! I never heard of anyone taking that many valium and surviving. Please someone check on her. I don't know how to get any emergency message through!
