Im going to be admitted into hospital

Im going to be admitted into hospital

I saw my psychiatrist yesterday afternoon and he is admitting me into hospital. Because of my mental state at the moment and im drinking and smoking soo much that it will end my life. Im very scared and dont want to be left alone in hospita away from my family, my partner and my pet bird. I know what to expect because I have previously been in the young adult mental health ward a few times before. But every time is so scary for me. I dont get to look for alcohol when im feeling like this. 😞 im heart broken 😞

Re: Im going to be admitted into hospital

Try not to stress mate..I always crap myself at just the mention of psychiatrist ....let alone being admitted...try to look at it as a well earned rest...your family, bird etc are not going anywhere..they will b there waiting to c a healthier you...plus its a good chance to catch up with some interesting people...I personally find " normal" folk to be sad boring and depressing..thinking of u..peace.

Hi @Miss_S

Sorry to hear that you're so stressed and upset about hospital. Is there soemthing that you're hoping for to come out of the admission though? Even though the admission is not so great.. is there someething to hope for from it?

Ive not been well this week, ended up in er after a collapse this week and was terrified they'd make me stay. but i promised to look after myself and do as i was told lol but very different circumstances. and i have two lil ones who need me home.

When i was admitted into hospital for my mental health i really did come out a lot better. my moods were more stable and i could cope with life again. wasn't a cure all of course but i came out in a better place to start from.

Fingers crossed that your admission helps,
