Princess Lola	Well if your adamant not to get any help then maybe you should look it up on a health website. You know when people have medical procedures and stuff, they get lumps sometimes or start to hurt; that's scar tissue... so it may be something like that? Anyways, sorry to hear you were feeling down, best of luck, Princess Lola x Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

CORKI	you are getting a hard time on here. people shouldnt be allowed the points if their gonna insult you. i think you should face up to what happened & go to the docs. if you've done real damage your gonna end up in hospital or worse anyway so its best to go now. all they'll do is check & treat your throat. they cant say anything to anyone so its best to get it checked. they might give you anti-depressants so you dont feel like this anymore. that in itself should make you want to go. good luck Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

UH HUH HER	Try using some cough medicine or throat soothing medicine. If they don't work, go the the doctor and say you've had a really bad cough, but now your throat really hurts, so hopefully they'll prescribe you with a good throat medicine. If you have scars or anything on your neck, try using BioOil [if you're in the UK. Let's hope it taught you a lesson. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

nursey	For God's sake go to your doctor immediately. You could have done some serious damage. Apart from that, whatever medication you are taking or counselling you are receiving is obviously not working for you. You must be honest with your doctor, who, ultimately is there to help you. You must also be honest with yourself and try become more aware of the mood swings of your condition so that you don't get overwhelmed and try something like this again. REMEMBER, you are lucky. Next time it might work... Take care and best of luck to you. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

CHRISTINA	you have most likely strained the muscles in your throat and neck area causing the pain but i really feel you need to see your doc .trying to hang your self is pretty drastic thing to to and if you don't want to see your doc you be best to confide in someone you need help. good luck Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Darb D	Laura ....please tell someone in 'real life'. Hugs for you ;) If you are or were ready to give yourself away thats fine but you don't need to kill yourself....instead dedicate yourself to helping others. Something magical will happen. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

pullthetrigger	hey hun. firstly (((((((HUGS))))))) to you. i can't imagine how horrible this whole time, from the attempt and afterwards, must have been, especially with all the morons on here insulting you and really just making everything worse. but understand that most people on here, including me, do care, as you can see from most of these answers, and that we all want the best for you. Please go and see your doctor, as you may well have damaged your windpipe, or torn some muscles in your neck or something. don't be embarrassed, we all need help at times, and you need help - it's their job to help you. just explain to the doc as you have done here, that in the low part of your bipolar cycle you tried to kill yourself, the attempt failed, you don't want to kill yourself anymore, and that you're worried about these neck pains, which is understandable. also say that you are on meds for this, but that they aren't working yet. if you explain the situation, i'm sure they'll understand. but even if they don't, they should help you for this. did you tell your psychiatrist about the attempt? if you did, could you ask him/her about the neck pains? or ask them to write a letter in support that you can show to the doc, to explain the situation, and to encourage them to sort any problems with your neck that you may have? please go and get help, it's for the best. Good luck hun. feel free to email me if you want someone to talk to. :) Stay strong, stay safe. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

There are unfinished problems that need to be resolve. What happen if you can not walk or talk in a few hours. Never go to the hospital with a lie. Now get up and go to the hospital Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

"McRib" NREMT-P	Well first question is if you have rapid cycling Bipolar Disorder why are you not on meds. If so then as I am sure you know they are not working. Is the problem that you do not take them because you like your manic phases so much? So the throat problem is not something you should be very concerned about right now. What you should be concerned about however is getting the help you know you need. So please I know you are embarassed but you must push that aside and get yourself some help....TODAY!!

Dr Simon	Hello Now, why are you embarrased to see your Doctor? The fact that you tried to harm yourself is serious enough to indicate you need some help - who knows when and if that urge to harm yourself will return.

It is best you go to your doctor - please get some help, even if its just to check your neck is OK. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
