Hi all,
I write with a tear in my eye as I feel so low am unsure how to get out of it. I've been seeing a psychiatrist for 7 months now but feel I'm at my worst.
Not sure exactly what to write as feeling a victim and ditesting myself for this. I haven't read too much on this site however if somebody has a similar story or knows of somebody who's been alike. Please let me know.

Hi Gothgirl39,
Yes we have discussed hospital, however can only be omitted to a private hospital which unfortuanatly my insurance is covered with.
He did say is a possibility if it continues but no guarantee. I actually dread it myself however am listening to the experts.
Kind Regards,
Doogz

Kindest regards,
