    Thank you jox for the warning. Yet, I'm sitting here mentally daring myself to look... :(

    I was on Accutane for four months in college and one of the listed side effects was "thoughts of suicide." I never really thought about that, but I did find that sometimes when I was in the kitchen, I'd stare at the cooking knives in their wood block and just be really curious about how much it would cut me if I just lightly ran it across my arm.
    Very weird, I know. That went away after I was off of it. I was hesitant to tell anyone honestly. It was just this strange fixation looking at those knives, or holding one, like it was the only thought in my mind.
