I'm really anxious right now... I attempted suicide last night, but it didn't work, and now I'm feeling even more depressed. It's mostly because of this sexual issue I'm dealing with, you know, erectile dysfunction. I've never told my parents about this, and I really can't imagine leaving them alone. What should I do?

I've been given Alprax 0.5 to take every night before I sleep, and Inderal 10 for both morning and night. This morning, I accidentally took Alprax 0.5 instead of Inderal 10, but I ended up taking both. Can I still take my usual dose of Alprax 0.5 tonight? I'm a bit worried about how this mix-up might affect me.
