Supporting a partner in a crisis

Supporting a partner in a crisis

hi everyone, i really don't know where else to turn, this is the first time i have bene on the carers forum, my partner is suicidal and she almost made an attempt 2 days ago, she had to change meds because of the warf strike preventing her meds comming into aus, and the ones she is on now have made her really unwell, she can't make phone calls and she is scared of police comming to her house. i have tried contacting so many people to get her into a MHU, i have talked her into going volintarily, but their is no way that i can find to get her their.

please help

Jacques

Re: Supporting a partner in a crisis

hi my dear friend @Shaz51 you are so generous with your time speaking with me.

you have an amazing heart, i am ok, i have had a good day, well sort of, mum drilled through my hand in the garden, we where putting up some screening and silly me had my hand in the wrong spot.

my partner is ok, im trying to support her as best i can and giving her all the love and respect i can. trying to rebuild her self worth and self esteem. i think im slowly getting there 🙂

hugs my friend, i hope the weekend is going well for you too.

Jacques

Hi @Shaz51

my partners daughter is going through a rough time, she keeps saying everyone hates her, she becomes so distressed, we are trying to get her help, i hope it is soon enough. my partner is really struggling feeling she is a bad mum. she loves her girls so so much.

I know it is hard as we have our own worries too

Her daughter is 10, she is so distressed, she is swearing, saying horrible things to her mum and sister. It is really brining my partner down

Yikes @Jacques daughter not a teenager yet.

It is a tough one, the reality of MI is that relationships are often a struggle.
