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

Yes @creative_writer 💜💜

I do understand 🫂💜

pain wears us down till it feels like there’s nothing else left. However, please don’t despair; you’re not by yourself in the isolation that pain brings 💜🌺🫂

I can understand the need for it to get better, too. Holding space for you 💜🌺

Re: Stuck and can’t escape it.

@Former-Member I feel like curling up into a ball and crying, but if I did that I will be asked questions that I don’t want to answer. I’m tired of being sick. I’m tired of being in physical and emotional pain. I’m also tired of flashbacks

Re: Stuck and can’t escape it.

@Jynx @Former-Member - things have been hard at home, grandma is trying to control me and tell me what I can and can’t do, it’s making me feel overwhelmed and yeah, I’ve been in and out of hospital like no tomorrow for my MH every weekend, they have now started turning me away, especially the rude nurse that has it against me….. it really sucks, all I do is go to get support by them and then they do this to me.

everything is just getting to me lately, I have never struggled so much, I’m waiting on my planned admission but who knows when that will be. Case manager is trying to do the best she can to help me by calling me everyday to make sure I’m ok, I’m sleeping a lot.

im safe

Yes @creative_writer 💜

it’s really hard when we can’t take those moments we need 😔💜

I do understand where you’re at right now, and I gently would like to say I hear you 💜🫂

Re: Stuck and can’t escape it.

Yeah @Fluttershy1 💜🌺

Things certainly have been very hard, and with not being heard, that isn’t helpful is it 💜

Although it sounds like your case manager is doing well to support you till the planned admission, and hopefully beyond 🙂🌺💜

still holding hope for you, as always 🙂💜🌺🫂
