Anyone feel like chatting?

Yes, not sleeping makes it very hard to cope with life @Former-Member
Sorry to hear your sleeps are bad.

I often have to take something for sleep.
Sometimes deep breathing helps, sometimes not.

Its either not being able to sleep or to stay asleep .. or nightmares.. and reality is a nightmare too @Former-Member
It does make things difficult. I got abandoned by all my supports at the beginning of the year and all my medications also got stripped away from me without explanation.. And even with another attempt since and honest cries for help - without trying to seem attention seeking 😞 I have nobody. It's been difficult

-- just wondering if anyone was around

Really sorry to hear that @Former-Member
I hope that you will be able to find someone that can help you. It is tough doing it alone.
Not easy finding a good therapist, but I hope you can.
I've been to heaps. Some were helpful some not. Keep searching.
I googled and found a group that was helpful. It went for 10 weeks.
The right one can help you move forward.
My nightmares are rare now. They used to happen most nights.

@Former-Member

I think what upsets me the most is that.. the service left without explanation. My medication was taken away (cold turkey), no explanation, and that was really damaging to my wellbeing. Then I tried to seek for answers.. Got turned away and shoved under the carpet and denied. Then attempted suicide, unconscious, told of the possibility to potentially die.. And was only in hospital for medical reasons and nobody saw me (from what I can remember as again - I wasnt conscious for the most part) for my mental health.. Went back to the ER weeks later in complete distress and totally suicidal - and got discharged straight away.. I then ran away with that news and was found on train tracks, then back to hospital and discharged again with nothing. Soo it has been very hard.

Good to hear your nightmares are rarer now xx Hope you also have someone now you can talk to and trust ❣

Yep 😀@bella3

Ok well I'll leave that be for time being maybe @Former-Member thanks for sharing 😀

so sad.

Wow! @Former-Member
That's amazing what has happened to you.
It doesn't sound right at all.
I'm so sorry to hear this.

No, I don't have anyone I can trust or talk to.
I have had good counselling in the past, at times, but not for a very long time.
It can be difficult finding someone who understands.
I've read alot of self help books on ptsd etc....
