Extreme sensitivity

Hi and welcome @Nikki222

I'm sorry you find yourself in this sad situation. Posting on Sane is a good way to connect with other sufferers and express your concerns; giving your 'voice' a place to be heard. I'm glad you've let social media go as it can be so triggering.

Hearing voices is something you really need to discuss with your MH team as early intervention is 'always' a positive step in the right direction. The more information you give them, the better they can support you with treatment options.

I hear in your words how scared you are too; that's totally understandable. You're very young with your life ahead of you, so learning to cope will serve you well for your future. Trust those amazing professionals because they're experienced, care about your well-being and want what's best for you.

Yes, psych's come and go. It's an unfortunate reality in the psychology field. I'm lucky as I've found one who runs her own businesss. They're few and far between but very expensive.

Please take care and maybe we can talk soon;

Hope xo

Hi @Nikki222 welcome to the forum. I'm sorry to hear you are having such a hard time. There are lots of great people here who understand. I had a psychotic episode before being diagnosed with Bipolar 1 in my 40s. The sense of not knowing what's real and what isn't is really scary and unsettling. And Bipolar comes with sensitivity that's pretty full on. Do you have a good GP? One who's ok with mental illness. Finding a good one can take time but it's worth it - someone who you can talk to honestly.

Take care
