Help

Hi @Karl,
Someone more able to help you should reply soon but just want to check if you are safe

No

@Karl, maybe you should call an ambulance.

@Former-Member

I should call lifeline im sorry

Dont be sorry you need help I tagged @Former-Member because they are more able to provide this help as I was in your position less then a month ago

Hi @Karl,

I'm sorry to hear you're having a rough time at the moment. We don't provide one to one counselling through the Forums, but I will drop you an email now to check in.

Hi @Karl. Just wondering how you are going now. Did you manage to get in contact with LifeLine?
If it helps, you can talk here about what is happening for you today. No judgement. Just support.

Yes I did they told me to focus on the reasons why I didn't do it and what is going on and that I should distract myself until I can get help from a psychologist I can't afford to do that I haven't eaten in 3 days I've attempted to end it 3 days in a row they told me that I don't want to die and that I just want the pain to go away and I think that is correct thank you for checking on me

I almost did the same thing 7 years ago when my partner left with my two and a half year old daughter I remarried after that and after 5 years it ended but wasn't so bad because no kids involved this time I have been with a girl for the past year and a half we were born in the same month and where exactly the same age we connected better than I've ever experienced with anybody else we had a great time she is into Tarot and other stuff and told me that she needs to be alone than that she loves me Unconditionally but she's not in love with me this all happened 3 days ago before that she told me she needs some space after two days I called her drunk telling her I miss her and then she said that alarm bells have rung and that she is not going to give me any chance so I'm self blaming and that's my issue

Hi @Karl,

It sounds like you are going through a really difficult time at the moment. As NikNik mentioned above we don't provide one on one counselling or crisis support on the forums, but I did want to reach out and see if you have any support at the moment. It sounds like perhaps making an appointment with a GP may be helpful at this point. Some psychologists bulk bill and therefore you would be able to access support through Medicare either for free or at a reduced rate with a rebate.

I can see that you were given numbers for crisis services earlier, so do reach out to them again if you feel you need to talk to someone about what is happening for you. As mentioned above emergency services are also an option should you need. This is also a good space for you to be able to chat to people and get support.

Hopefully there are some things that you can do this afternoon to help you to distract from these thoughts.

Take care
