Self advocacy.

Hi all.

I'm in the psych ward at the moment. They are discharging me today.

However i have severe pneumonia and I'm really sick. Like really really sick.

I've spent my admission in bed with high fevers and high resp rates. Isolating in my has been hard. But I've been too sick to care and I've been just trying to breathe or sleep so being in my room has been fine. Most of the nurses have just been ignoring me too.

I don't know what to do. I feel too medically unwell to go home. How do I slef advocate to be moved to a medical ward instead of going home. How do I make them listen when I just can't talk. Or lack the motivation and energy to stand up for myself.

And tips would be great.
