Not Coping

Sorry, I didn't get to read back why you can't be admitted privately... what happened @Birdofparadise8 ?

You could give 5th of June a try of course @Birdofparadise8

I don't see my psychiatrist for six weeks and that to far away I can't carry on with these emotions for that long.

My GP said you have to be seeing a psychiatrist at the place you want to be admitted which I don't @tyme

Ummm.... @Birdofparadise8 , I don't think so.

Let me email you.

@tyme ok

Hi @Kyle1 @Bow @tyme @creative_writer @amber22 @Captain24

How is everyone going today?

I have been at a uni doing a research study and I had to do lots of cognitive test and an MRI it was so cool.

Hey @Birdofparadise8 im okish…. But had a bit of a rough day. Nurses can be insensitive at times when it comes to my eating disorder.

you got anymore clarity in regards to an admission?

I'm sorry to hear that @Bow. Did a nurse say something wrong?

Kind of and kind of not. If things aren't going well, I'll go into ED on the 5th and see if they can at least do an assessment and if going inpatient is necessary, they will make that decision.

I want to go inpatient, but when I called psych triage, the person said it can depend on who is on the ward and all that. She said it could be more traumatizing me being there than not.

I would go private but I don't think I will have that all ready to go in two weeks' time.

@Birdofparadise8 Yeah a nurse asked me about my eating disorder and wanted to know what kind of thoughts I had been having, so I told her and she responded in a really unhelpful manner, making comments and comparing her body to mine.

I would tend to agree with what the triage nurse said. Psych wards can be traumatising, especially the public system. There can be some really unwell people in there.

I wouldn’t be rushing into public if I was you @Birdofparadise8 . It is not the most pleasant of experiences even when you’re really unwell.

Take care sweetie.
