Something’s not right

Is anyone around tonight? Depressed and suicidal

Is anyone around tonight? Depressed and suicidal

Hi everyone on the forums. *Admins/mods, feel free to move this to an appropriate thread if this one isn't the right place.*

I'm really down right now, in a dark place. I want to hurt myself, I'm feeling suicidal. I've never attempted or done anything in my life but I want to.

As I mentioned in one of my posts, I don't see my Psychiatrist again until March 30. Then the new GP on March 13, but I want to see my Psychiatrist more because I feel more comfortable with him.

I also mentioned in another post that the local mental health triage (yes thats what they called themselves) refuse to help me and support me, they just admit people so they won't help or tell me people/places that can. I give up.

I can't get a job, I can't afford to study and the free courses at TAFE & Uni you had to a course already & have qualifications which I don't. I can't meet people. I went to a Headspace Centre & that was bad for me, sometime last year (for a group & Psychologist).

I don't see Psychologists anymore because of bad experiences. I see my Psychiatrist on Skype because he's in Sydney & I'm in Victoria (regional sort of).

I don't know what to do, I just give up. I don't want to be here anymore and I can't stop these thoughts, it's so hard for me not to try and do something and fight the thoughts. I only have my parents but it's so hard.

I'm sorry for coming on here and venting, I know everyone has their own things to deal with. I don't want to call 000 at the moment, I'd have to discuss with my parents anyway but they know everything I go through.

I don't know if these meds are working at all or if i should up the dosage like my Psychiatrist said shortly.

I just want to hurt myself and don't want to be here. I'm so stressed and just ready for a break down. On my walk today with my dog I had a panic attack because of everything and just seeing a few people and cars drive by which gets a bit much for me as silly as that sounds, I know. And I just feel like I'm ready for a breakdown.

Yes I've spoken to Kids Helpline, eHeadspace, Beyond Blue, SANE web chat etc. I might try them now too if I can get through, I don't know.

@CheerBear @outlander @Former-Member @Sophia1 @NNY @Former-Member @Former-Member @Former-Member @Former-Member (think that was the correct username that was in one of the emails I got, sorry if not), @Bunniekins @eth @Valentine @MDT @TheVorticon @Shaz51 @Snowie @Faith-and-Hope @Sans911 @WriterMelb @TAB @BlueBay @Adge @Scarecrowe @Scoo @Scribbles @Meowmy @Maggie @Ant7 @Bill16 @Appleblossom and any others I missed (sorry)

Hi all, I just wanted to apologise for this thread. I've tried to keep things to myself but also talk things out, it's hard either way but I do my best regardless. I tried Suicide Call Back Service earlier today on their web chat but I waited about 30 mins and couldn't get through, no one replied, no email or phone call either, so that hurt me too, I understand that they're busy but that got to me. Maybe I'll try other places like Lifeline again tomorrow. I understand these forums aren't like those places, as good as the forums are, so I'm sorry. I didn't mean to worry and stress anyone, I apologise. I try to distance myself so I don't be a burden and annoy and depress anyone, I hope I didn't.

I had a break down today though that I felt coming, well just crying and anger, I didn't do anything though. But coming on the forums helps me a little.

I'm always here for everyone tagged and everyone on the forums and I care, I'll do my best to support everyone who needs me. Take care everyone, sorry again.

Hey @Former-Member I am here. Having a couple of Baileys to celebrate the last couple of hours of my birthday.

Sorry to hear you are feeling down and not having a good day. I find those lifeline places etc are not usually much of a help. I rang life line one night feeling really bad and they made me feel that it was all my fault that I felt like I did. Felt worse after talking to them.

So maybe this might help, talk about something else. Your name is music fanatic....I am too....so what type of music and bands/singers are you into???

Re: Is anyone around tonight? Depressed and suicidal

hello @Former-Member

I am so sorry that you have not had a response to your call in desperation.

I am not on here that often however, did read your words for reaching out for help

As silly as it sounds...whether or not you have telephoned the helpline

and now I have read your email,

Regardless ring those out of hour numbers when you need to, They are paid to listen to you or others in need,'

Re: Is anyone around tonight? Depressed and suicidal

Happy Birthday @Scarecrowe 🎉🎂🌹

I like Baileys too. I hope you had a nice day for your birthday.

Re: Is anyone around tonight? Depressed and suicidal

Evening @Sans911 Thank you so much for your birthday greeting.

I have had a lovely day. Had tea with the family tonight. And went to Melbourne on Saturday with my best mate and surprise my other best mate was waiting for us. She flew in from Wolloongong and my sister showed up a few hours later. And then saturday night I found out that I was going to Sandown Raceway to have 3 laps in a V8 Supercar. I am a massive petrol head so this is something I have wanted to do for over 20 years. It has been a massive 50th birthday, surprises all weekend and more presents tonight at tea. It has been wonderful.

Yes Baileys is such a lovely drink. My best mate goes overseas just about every year so I get her to get me Baileys duty free. They are bigger bottles for the same price as the normal size. Very smooth drink. Glad you are also a fan of the drink.

Hope you are doing well. I have not been on much lately, my computer crashed and it was some weeks until I got it fixed.

Hey @Former-Member

You never need to be sorry here for reaching out. Especially feeling the way you do. Have you checked out the coping threads members have directed you to? Or what's your usual way of coping when you feel like this?

I use lots of distractions. That for me looks like watching Netflix, playing games on my phone, colouring in. And sometimes I go to my coping box. Have you heard of these?

I know it's disheartening when the Helplines don't answer. Don't give up on them though. Unfortunately there's only so much these forums can offer and when it cones to crisis management they are your best option. I'm ok to sit with you here for a little while.
