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

Glad you let us know what was going on for you @Jacques

I was not sure whether to post here so just supported.

Glad @outlander @Shaz51 spoke up.

Your health is important Breathing wise and all other aspects.

It is amazing the support that is here as we all have found a will to bring about the sense of community. In spite of all the trials and tribulations .... with close people and other forumites and you being near the fires. It has made a lot more real to me, even though I am safe atm in the city.

hi my virtual mum @Appleblossom i had not head of Ms Kollwitz but that was a very interesting read, it is amazing to me how so much of todays problems are the same problems as our past ancestors. how as a society can we keep making the same mistakes time and time again without learning. she sounded like an amazing woman who created amazing art work. i am currently looking at her works online.

thank you so much for sharing @Appleblossom hugs my friend

A friend of german descent took me to an exhibition about 15 years ago and I was floored, amazed and captivated. Important to keep looking at the human and social aspects behind history ... I have some of her etchings up in my home.

Hugs @Jacques You were always a deep thinker.
