Something’s not right

So apparently I should go to the hospital

So apparently I should go to the hospital

I'm struggling inside but not showing it on the outside because I don't want to go back to the hospital and I don't want to go see a clinical psychiatrist like everyone wants me to because they think I need stronger meds and a complete mental health review done

I don't mind anti-anxiety/antidepressant medication it does lesson my anxiety but what I don't tell people is I have visual and auditory hallucinations and the voices are worse they mess with my cptsd and panic disorder. And the line between hallucinations and reality is pretty blurred lately it's hard to tell what's real

@tyme The mental health hospital here is public but you get private room

Re: So apparently I should go to the hospital

I found that for me, the public system was only for when I was in crisis. Do you think they will admit you @Twilightsomniac ?

Re: So apparently I should go to the hospital

Yeah I've already been in there once this year with ideation and having stopped taking meds. To be honest I probably should have told them about the hallucinations then they did keep asking if i was having them. They know that I hear voices but I wasn't upfront about how bad they are either

Re: So apparently I should go to the hospital

Would you consider telling them this time @Twilightsomniac ?

I'm here if you want to talk about it.

@tyme yeah I might i just afraid that they'll call child services or something like that if i reveal how bad my mental health really is. What if they say i can't be responsible for them.

Re: So apparently I should go to the hospital

I am not the hospital, but I feel the situation would the same as the email I sent you before in that since your hubby and his parents are around, it's a non-issue. And as you said, you are here because of them @Twilightsomniac

I have to go now, but all the best for tomorrow.

Take care.

Just a couple more hours than I can go to the hospital

Re: So apparently I should go to the hospital

Hey @Twilightsomniac how are you feeling about it all today?

In response to: Re: So apparently I should go to the hospital

Re: So apparently I should go to the hospital

I feel like crap @Ru-bee but I am at breaking point. I still don't know if I'm going to be 100% forthcoming on how bad it is or just enough for them to understand I need the help

In response to: Re: So apparently I should go to the hospital

Re: So apparently I should go to the hospital

Yeah I hear you @Twilightsomniac it would be a pretty scary thing sharing that, especially when it's not something you've shared before, though it is fantastic that you've been able to talk about it here...maybe it will feel a tiny bit easier to share with others now that you've already taken this step?
