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.

Yes, that’s totally understandable @Fluttershy1 💜🌺

I have had a community crisis team come to my home before, and I found it confronting because I was talking about trauma, and having to face how distressing it can be to do that ❤️‍🩹

However, it was helpful in some ways, like having someone hear me, and acknowledge what I’d been dealing with, and so I hope that this visit can be helpful for you in a way that is supportive and gentle 💜

Theres so much going on and it can be so overwhelming that it can feel so hard, but you’re not alone 🙂💜

It's good to be strong @Fluttershy1 but leaning on others is good, too, when you need some help. I'm sorry you're finding it tough and I'm sending you good vibes.

Re: Stuck and can’t escape it.

@Fluttershy1 sorry for not chatting with you recently, been dealing with few things of my own mental health.

last year when I was not in a good place I saw my local suicide prevention team. It was very daunting plus was not pleasant for me discussing my childhood traumas. I did find the staff I dealt with very patient. Being able to explain things to qualified mental health staff who acknowledged what I went through plus impacts on me currently without judging me did help me feel better about talking with them.

Try not to think about what might happen on the day you see them. Try to take each day as it comes and be kind to yourself.

thinking of you and hoping the crisis team are able to provide you with the help and support that you will start to feel better. Sending you lots of hugs

@Former-Member - ended up in emergency for my heart- it’s playing up. Saw the crisis team they were helpful.

@Doog - it’s extremely hard, having MH and physical health issues is not a thing you wish on anyone.

Re: Stuck and can’t escape it.
