    NHS 24 advisor I spoke to at first was thinking along the lines of being admitted just to get me to a fucking stable point which I thought would help, but then got reffered to an out of hours CPN and she said "it's your responsibility to get better, and that the NHS can't do anything to help you" and "self discovery"

    This is really awful to hear @IainJammyboy, that you aren't getting the support you need. The NHS should be helping to find out what they can do to best support you. We all need help along the way and that support should be available and easily accessible but it sounds like it just isn't. Do you think you could tell them that you think being admitted might be helpful to help you to feel more stable?

    How are things feelings this morning? Let us know, we're here for you. <3

    im so pissed off bcs i asked my teachers for support so my head of year emailed my other teachers and he made it sound like im just lazy. my form tutor spoke to me abt it in front of my whole form and he told me i need more self discipline. i couldn't even defend myself and tell him it's bcs my mental health has plummeted because it was in front of the whole fucking class. now all my teachers think im just lazy ughhh.

    @Gemma thanks - honestly they're still pretty bad. I am still trying to talk to my GP and my mental health team and absolutely everyone but they just don't want to seem to help me at all. My whole life is just falling apart

    Gonna stop complaining about life and burdening others and just continue to bottle everything up, what's the worst that could happen...i end up dead?....shame :bawling:

    I understand how you feel about everything at the moment but I would like to reassure you that you are not a burden at all. No one is a burden for wanting to ask for help. The best thing anyone can do is say I need help or support. I also bottle up a lot of worries from time to time which I know I shoulden't but its easier said than done sometimes I find when people always say you can talk about anything on you. Theres only so much you can bottle up. Im always here for you if you needsome someone <3.

    im a fucking failure, a worthless piece of shit that no one wants

    I don't think your a failure at all, you haven't failed, it shows that you are still trying. Sometimes we need to allow ourselves to feel like we failed but then we can learn and move on. To us your not a failure because you are trying so so hard everyday <3. Im always here if you need someone to talk to.

    I'm really sorry to hear this @IainJammyboy - it isn't right that they don't seem to want to help you, it's what they're supposed to be there for! Is there anyone else you feel comfy taking with you to see the GP or your mental health team who can help you advocate for what you need?

    You're doing so well to keep going, Iain. We're all here for you and really proud of you for sticking things out and continuing to look for support. <3

    @Gemma I did manage to speak to my GP, and they spoke to my mental health team. We all kinda agreed there's a hell of a lot of miscommunication going on but the facts are that they're just watching over me at this point to see what it is/could be and that 'coping strategies' won't be my so called 'permanent treatment'

    Hey @Chloe234, how are you doing this morning? It sounds like things have been really tough lately. <3

    I wondered if you had managed to receive any support for your eating? I know I've flagged these to you before but remember there are services like Beat who run online support groups and you can read more about them here.

    They also have a help finder, to help you look for support in your area.

    You deserve to be supported, Chloe, and you don't have to be strong for others. Please remember it's never your responsibility to be there for other people and it's so important that you look after your own wellbeing. Do you have any plans for this weekend? <3
