Welcome Adam :wave: :innocent:

Scared, of course - many of us were - but also, it sounds like it can’t be any worse than what you had before, so…

Scared, but also determined not to go back. Because it’s got to be better than what you had before.

Intentionally or accidentally?

The unknown is often frightening. Our mind conjures up all the worst imaginable scenarios to torment us with. But the truth is that the unknown is also where our dreams live. It is where all the possibilities exist outside of our vision and it’s only by stepping into that space and taking the risk that we chance receiving the reward we desire.

So welcome to the forum and I hope this place serves as a good tool for you in your new journey.

My path started in a similar fashion. I was scared too. I came here every day and spent as much time as I could on the wonderful site.

Accidental. Just had a couple of beers and shot. But my new meds ignited suicidal ideation and lot of depression and anger…

That makes sense to me. I’ve had suicidal ideation from certain medications as well–and ones that I didn’t expect. Glad you’re with us.
