Stuck and can’t escape it.

Stuck and can’t escape it.

Hey,

things are hard and I just can’t seem to escape it, I went to the emergency room last night hoping to get the help I needed from mental health clinicians but they basically sent me on my way, I had SH which was why I went and they still discharged me, I ended up calling them crying for help and they told me to go home and try my coping skills, barely even made it home without having a massive crying episode and having to take myself back for them to just tell me I’m fine and discharge me again.

I feel like I’m just a burden and mistake, it feels all to overwhelming, they are supposed to be there to support you not just send you on your way when your basically in crisis.

the nurse I got when I came back was really rude to me she was a mental health person and basically told me to go home and try my coping skills.[edited by moderator] I was upset and really not feeling great mentally.

im just stuck on what to do, I feel like I just can’t escape it…..

am safe

Re: Stuck and can’t escape it.

Hey @Former-Member @PeppyPatti @creative_writer @tyme @Jynx @RiverSeal - things have been really hard, my MH has been not good at all, I have been struggling with all my emotions and to self regulate. Today I’m just sleeping and hiding away in my bed.

went to emergency department 3 times yesterday for my MH and they refused to help me and told me I looked fine when I wasn’t I ended up getting sent home each time even with tears rolling down my face and yelling at them to help me.

im safe
