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

Oooh @Jacques

There is a lot of difficult things going on at once. Conflict in the family is hard. I am sorry for your partner and her child and your friend.

We can only do our best and other people need to do their bit. Keep learning about self care. What enables you to be your best self. For me it is an unfolding thing. Though it is important to be there for others, please keep some personal time for you.

Re: Supporting a partner in a crisis

hi my virtual mum, yes, i do have a lot of difficult things going oon at once, i am self harming a lot to cope with it all.

i sometimes worry im doing more harm than good for my partner and friend. so many of us hurt, i know i can;t save anyone but i can offer to listen and support them.

i just wish there was some help out there for them. every time they turn to professional help they get turned away.
