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

Re: Tw Not Coping

I’m sorry you didn’t get more from the appointment @Birdofparadise8 @and that it’s 6 weeks before you return. I think that’s pretty normal for new patients but you should ask to go on a cancellation list after the next visit.

Take care for the rest of your day 🩵

Perhaps you have time to take yourself somewhere nice?? @Birdofparadise8

Re: Tw Not Coping

No, not really I have two group assignments to do as no one if actually doing anything other than one of my friends @Kyle1

Re: Tw Not Coping

Can anyone give me some information about going inpatient and what it is like, and whether to go to a private or public hospital, please?

It would be greatly appreciated as I am currently thinking about going inpatient and if it does help or not.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Hi @Birdofparadise8, been away for some time, needed some quiet time off. The longest I have ever stayed in hospital is short stay, I didn’t stay long enough to get treatment, I did get assessed by a pdoc in the hospital and then they let me go because my urges had settled. The thing that really helped me was getting referred to HOPE last year. I don’t have much experience with inpatient, I probably would’ve ended up inpatient if I didn’t have access to HOPE last year

Re: Tw Not Coping

I’m not okay and I don’t think I’m going to be okay.
