Re: when is it time for hospital
Yes after over 4 years of counseling all it did was make my life a joke,and the humiliation...As I said most of the time came away feeling worse and more vulnerable.At the moment outlander,the main thing is the medication,if you have to be on it it is so important for it to be the right ones otherwise they can do more harm than good.
I don't know either outlander,as I said the other day my doctor said he finds it better if people just ",check in".When I was young I would veg out with the dogs and cats on the back lawn....I think that was the best form of counseling I ever had because you knew they got you .

Re: when is it time for hospital
Ive relapsed 😞
I know when its bad. Ive now recognised 3 of my relapse signs
1. I stop liking horses. And thats whats happening. I dont want to be there in fact its one of the last places i want to be along side being at home.
2. Ive encountered 2 triggers tonight and i hit a high but another sign ive relapsed. My depression takes over the anxiety anf it only lasts for about half an hour or it just makes my depression worse.
I dont know how i can change so damn quick. Quicker thsn a blink of an eye.
Hslf the time i dont know whether im anxious or depressed anf by the timr ive worked it out its changed again.
3. I cant be bothered to draw. I loose interest get frustrated lack motivation and judt cant do it

Re: when is it time for hospital
Outlander,just see what tomorrow brings,only make a change,when YOU know you can do it,and not as a means of escape as you aren't in the frame of mind to make changes unless you really know it's what you need.Just focus on your breathing and getting through the night.
I question this medication you're on,you shouldn't be having these symptoms by now, explain to the psychiatrist tomorrow.

Re: when is it time for hospital
Hi @outlander I'm very sorry to hear what you're going through and wish I could be here for you more.
Unfortunately I'm also having a bipolar episode of hypomania and just barely managing to keep it seeming as if I haven't lost the plot again, so I really have to look after myself at the moment. I miss our talks but I have no energy left over at the moment. I will try to get some sleep and contact you again when I've rested. I only had 3 hours sleep last night and have been averaging about 4-5 hrs a night for over 2 weeks. Just not enough. But I will probably be very alert again within a few hours so will see if you're online then. Have psychologist and psychiatrist tomorrow. My meds have been changed too. Sometimes it takes weeks to stabilize on them after starting.
Hope you get through the night safely, thinking of you.
