Stuck on what to do

Stuck on what to do

Things are not great at all. Definitely not coping.

I've been in crisis recently, but also due to a physical health condition haven't been able to eat or drink properly either and I'm feeling extremely unwell.

Thing is, I have extreme PTSD from the medical/mental health on top of severe CPTSD for other reasons. I really don't want to go there because I know that will just make my mental health so much worse.

I don't have any informal support networks, so only have my team to rely on. It's outside of hours, I tried reaching out with no response.

I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Re: Stuck on what to do

Hey @SCJ ,

I'm sorry to hear how difficult things are for you at the moment and that you don't have any informal supports you can rely on.

Have you ever contacted:

Lifeline 13 11 14 https://www.lifeline.org.au/

Lifeline Text Support 0477 131 114 https://www.lifeline.org.au/crisis-text/

Suicide Call Back Service 1300 659 467 https://www.suicidecallbackservice.org.au/

These are 24/7.

Alternatively, we are here for a chat if you think it'll help. What's happening for you right now?
