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

Hi @Former-Member, things are going a lot better, my partner is home and getting better, I am OK too, just dealing with a sensitive tooth, but that is all

@Jacques
I hope recovery from this acute episode is ongoing and that remission will be sustained.
If you need further support, please do not hesitate to tag, but over and out for now.

Hi @Former-Member, yes a rough time, I stopped my partner making an attempt yesterday, it was another close call, I'm just trying to keep her positive until these feelings pass. Thank you for caring @Former-Member, your such a kind and caring soul

Oh @Jacques so sorry to hear your partner feeling that way again.

How are you going in the self care department?
