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

Hi @creative_writer @Bow @Eve7 @tyme @Kyle1

I've arrived and I got to speak with the psychiatrist straight away. I'm going to do TMS and try a different medication.

Hope you are all having a good day.

@Birdofparadise8, I hope the new med and tms help. How are you finding the inpatient stay?

I feel nothing. Nothing feels real. Just waiting to snap out of this dream like state

Re: Tw Not Coping

Good luck with your stay @Birdofparadise8

I have my last ECT tomorrow morning and then I go home. Anxious

In response to: Re: Tw Not Coping

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yeah, I have to wait and see what happens @creative_writer.

Well I can only leave if it's escorted, which sucks. I really want to go for a run, but I can't. The food is good, but the room is very cold.

I'm pretty lonely in here, to be honest.

Sorry you are feeling like you're in a dream like state.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Thanks @Bow

I already want to leave.

They won't let me leave on my own, which sucks. I want to go outside and do some exercise.

I feel so alone in here. Hopefully, it might get better as the week goes on.

I'm pleased you are getting to leave. I hope thing's go smoothly for your transition back home.

Hey @Birdofparadise8 I’m glad you’ve arrived safely and that the food is good. They should let you out for a run after a couple of days.

It’s good you’ve seen the pdoc already and that you have new meds. Good luck with rTMS. It all sounds positive so far.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Thanks, @Eve7

As much as it seems positive, I don't feel like it. I'm so alone.

I still have to wait for the referral for the TMS and meet with someone from there. I am not 100% with the medication. It isn't set in stone. I'll ask tomorrow when I see her.

How are you?

In response to: Re: Tw Not Coping

Re: Tw Not Coping

I’m ok thanks @Birdofparadise8

The TMS will take a few days with routine tests and referral before it.can start.

I was really lonely when I first arrived at my last admission. It’s hard at first until you get used to the routine and realise that everyone else is doing it tough too.

Re: Tw Not Coping

I guess that's true @Eve7.

The thing I don't like the most is how cold it is here. My fingers are so pale white from the cold.
