I worked up the courage and sent my case manager a text this afternoon. Said I wasn’t even sure if I had the right to ask questions, but asked whether she knew if there would be an opening for me to see my psychologist weekly, instead of the current fortnightly and if not whether someone else could see me.
I told her that I had a bit of a melt down this afternoon about my anxieties over going home.
I really do need weekly psychology appointments. That’s what I had with my previous psych. I’d love it if someone else took me on as I’ve really been turned off my psych due to a phone interaction. I just don’t know if I’m allowed to complain? Feel like because it’s a free service I just have to take what’s given to me.
my eating disorder thoughts have been very loud today. I began crying while sitting and eating my lunch today. I left the table and went to my room. Gave myself a headache from crying, so went and asked for some painkillers ….and I thought maybe that would be a way to ask to talk with a nurse. She did ask if I was ok and I said no. And she asked what was wrong. I explained through many tears that my eating disorder thoughts were really loud. She gave me some painkillers and asked if I wanted some prn which I accepted. She told me to go lay down for a bit and she would come check on me in an hour.
she never came back.
