Something’s not right

Darkness

Darkness

Well it's been a hellish few weeks, I have fallen into the rabbit hole and there seems no escape this time. The darkness has come and it thicker than the fires of hell.

Things just don't seem to going right at all and my MH is just getting worse and worse. Not sleeping (afraid to sleep) not eating and not taking my meds. I know this doesn't help but why bother because when I am on them I either feel zone out or that they do nothing anyways. I didn't make it work today, got to the front and was physically sick and froze again. Crawled back into bed where I stayed untill I had an unexpected call.

My 3 main MH professional and I in a conference call, at the end of the call I was given a choice be sectioned or have my ex move back in temporarily to provide around the clock monitoring, this means for at least two weeks of him being here making sure I eat, take my meds and be present for all appointments and no SH. I am not happy about either option but because of teenager trauma in a MH hospital I am taking the ex.

I will not be as active as normal but I will check in. but like tonight, I may just support posts as I am struggling to even type this. So @Snowie @eth @Lee82 @Eden1919 @Purplerain @Lotusgirl amd anyone I missed I will be getting the care I need and will be safe. To some of the newest forum members please forgive me if it takes a bit for me to get back to you.

Re: Darkness

Hey beautiful. How has your day been? I have spent most of the day today doing diamond painting trying to distract my thoughts and keep my anxiety under control. It's been real rough to day the least. I too am dealing with a whole lot of family s**t that I have just been made aware of on top of my own mh. It's been a hell of a week. To top it all off I cannot go see my mh team as they are in lockdown for the next 6 weeks so basically on my own. @Former-Member sending you a gentle hug and lots of love Nikki. 💗

hi to everyone I hope today has been productive for you and that you have had a pretty good day with a little sunshine in it 🌈🌺🌟🦋❤️

Re: Darkness

Can you call, email or video conference your MH team @Lee82?

In response to: Re: Darkness

Re: Darkness

I can call but she isn't working many hours at the moment because of remote learning. I won't be able to speak to her til Friday next week.
@Zoe7

how has your day been today?

Re: Darkness

That is a long time when you need someone now @Lee82

I have got some things done today but still behind in my work so going to keep going tonight for as long as I can to catch up a little.

Re: Darkness

Yea it's definitely way too long as I didn't get to see her last week cause I was sick and had to have the Covid test and from this week she has been in lockdown. So by the time I get to speak with her it would have been 3 weeks.
I hope you were able to get some rest in today @Zoe7 and that you are able to finish your work soon so you can have a little me time.

So sorry to read all this, @Lee82 . And that you can't speak to your psych till next Friday too. Can you call or message the SANE Help Centre as a stop gap?

In response to: Re: Darkness

Re: Darkness

Yea I can call them @NatureLover I just struggle a lot with speaking to people I don't know. I find it hard to talk about myself.

In response to: Re: Darkness

Re: Darkness

It might be a good idea to call a helpline or SANE for the time being @Lee82 so you can get some support now before things escalate any further for you tonight. I am worried that without a little help tonight that you may head down that dark road again so if you can head that off before it happens then that is a good thing.

Re: Darkness

I will definitely think about it. I am just hopeless speaking on the phone and expressing how I feel to people I don't know or people I can't see. 😔 I get all tongue tide and stutter and I must sound like an idiot to the other person on the line
