Something’s not right

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 there @Fluttershy1 💜

Im sorry to hear that you didn't get much sleep, and PTSD is present.

Glad youre safe 💜

Are there some things that you have tried in the past that help settle PTSD?

I hope its ok I mention... I sometimes make something with my hands (like a cake, or biscuits), and that tends to take my mind off the cyclic pattern of PTSD in the moment, or I have something to eat and focus on savouring the flavour, smells, and textures..

I understand how hard it can be when PTSD comes along, it feels very overwhelming.

Sitting with you 🙂

Re: Stuck and can’t escape it.

I’m trying to study but I’m bored @Former-Member - also tired so thinking of taking a nap

In response to: Re: Stuck and can’t escape it.

Re: Stuck and can’t escape it.

I understand @Fluttershy1 💜

A nap sounds like a nice way to reset 🙂
