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

Re: So apparently I should go to the hospital

Hi @mb3

I'm so pleased you found my advise helpful and I hope the Medicare Mental Health Centre get back to you asap and offer you options for ongoing support.

Please don't hesitate to continue contacting them until you connect with someone helpful, as it is easy to get lost in the so called system, you deserve to be heard and connected with the supports you need.

I wish you all the best in advocating your needs and establishing a support network.

Kindly Alisse
