Not Coping

Not Coping

Hey everyone how are you all?

@RiverSeal @Shaz51 @NatureLover @tyme @Former-Member @Eve7 @Former-Member @amber22 @Jynx @FloatingFeather

I'm not doing great at all today. I'm feeling down. I also keep beating myself up for everything and feel like I'm just failing. I need a break from everything. It's getting so hard that I don't know how to keep going anymore especially since I can't talk to anyone around me as they are leaving me or don't understand.

Hope you don’t mind me reaching out I just really need a chat and though I could come on here and vent and talk for a bit.

Thank you

@Birdofparadise8

you might have been asked this many times, but I don't know,: have you any reliable friends who can visit on a weekend?

No not really I haven’t even been in Melbourne for a month and don’t want to burden the people I do have with my problems it’s too soon @Kyle1

In response to: Re: Tw Not Coping

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yeah I hope so too @RiverSeal

I don’t know if you’ve seen any of the posts @Kyle1 and I made about the crisis teams.

They told me not to go to ED and I’m doing everything I can.

How are you today?

Hi @Birdofparadise8

I'm doing really well thank you!

If you are not in a good place and you need immediate support sometimes the hospital is the best place for us. It's good advice if you feel you need to take it, I suggest that you contact crisis support services to support you to make that decision today.

The Forums are here as always to discuss our thoughts and connect with our peers.

Take care

  • I've started horribly. I seem to be polar opposite to you in terms of times of day I feel way down...
  • I have a lot of extremely similar experiences with MH services, too. Sad to say...

Re: Tw Not Coping

I did contact them yesterday the triage and they told me not to go @RiverSeal I don’t know what to do.

Did you have any contact with the acute care team in Hobart if so were the terrible like there were with me @Kyle1.

That could be a good thing I can help in the morning and you and night.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 sometimes we need to make our own decisions about our MH and get support if we need it. If you are in crisis and need support I encourage you to use the resources that are available to you. It's good to stay connected here on the Forums but SANE is not a crisis support service so we have limitations. What are the barriers you face preventing you from going to the ED if you feel that you need immediate support today?

Regards

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yeah I know that SANE isn’t a crisis service.

I feel alright at the moment I’ll see how things play out today as I have a bit of study and other things to do. Once I have a chat with KHL I’ll see what she suggested and I’ll go from there and also my aunt @RiverSeal
