      Klonopin, running my wrists/hands/face under cold water, talking about it if possible/in the right situation

      I email my therapist, plus I cry a lot, sometimes a friend would call me and I talk about it. But I talk to my therapist and she becomes more supportive. I sometimes watch a good show. I also rest. Lastly one of my case managers would double up her support

      It depends on the trigger. I will play Sims 4 to distract me, or hide if I can like in stores and such, write/draw/art/crafts, eat/drink, listen to music, if possible avoiding triggers.

          @KenziJade I'm on celexa 10 mg I've been on 100-200mg of depression medication for years and years. I'm in a Suboxone program and my Dr said change all your meds to me and I'll write you all your medication so I did she has me on celexa 10mg and trazodone 50mg and remeron 10mg for sleep, the celexa 10mg she wrote me after 3+ weeks go by I ask her if she would up my dose she said I'm gonna leave you at 10mg. Remember I've been on 100-200mg for many years. I told her if I ever flip my script and do something bad just know it's all your fault. I'm having a really really hard time coping with life right now
