I don't see the point in living anymore. I can't. I've called helplines but tonight it's just not helped. I've spent way too much time in hospital over the years and nothings ever helped.
@outlander it;s tomorrow afternoon. And i dont know what questions are going to be asked, but i guess to prepare myself I should just be honest, and know there may be some stuff come up that will be uncomfortable

Re: I just can't.
I hope it goes ok @The-red-centaur all you can do is exactly as you said. Be honest with them even though it might be uncomfortable. Do you think you could keep distracted today/tomorrow so the nerves dont get to you to much? Maybe write down your own questions/concerns to take with you as well?

You have this wonderful opportunity that has come along quicker than you thought possible @The-red-centaur so there is undoubtedly going to be questioning in your own mind about how it will go - just be honest as that is what will guide you through the appointment - you got this @The-red-centaur nerves are good

Re: I just can't.
I have to chose between all the side effects of my meds and going psycho. Earlier we cut down the dose of one of antipsychotics. My symptoms returned.not nearly as bad of being on no meds. But I don't know do I be a zombie or the paranoid survivor trying not get eaten alive by the other zombies

Re: I just can't.
Also I give up on social occasions. My head can't handle it. Too much noise, too much distress, too many voices.
I tried going back to my community group I go to with dad but I couldn't last an hour. It used to be the highlight of my week but now I'm too scare to go. Today was a trial and I couldn't cope. I don't know what to do now. I don't want to give up something that used to be a support for me.

Re: I just can't.
Can you give it another go next week @The-red-centaur - sometimes these things take time to get back into when you have been as unwell as you have been - start small ...just go for some of the group and work up from there - is that an option?
