I'm sorry to hear you're feeling nervous about your ward round on Thursday. Would you like to share a bit more with us about what you're feeling most nervous about?
I hope it goes okay tomorrow. Remember we're here for you
It's reassuring to hear that you feel comfortable talking about this on the Mix. I can imagine that a hospital might be quite a silencing environment so it's really healthy that you can still speak openly
Sounds like, if I'm interpreting correctly, that you feel like it would be unfair for your new CPN to be present during your ward round as she hasn't actually seen you since you came into hospital..?
Is this the only thing making you feel nervous about your ward round, or would you say there are other factors?
With regards to the CPN, if you can't actually control whether or not she turns up to your ward round, how do you think it would be best to behave if she does show up? What sort of behaviour would be in your best interest?
I hope the ward round goes well, and by the way you are writing it seems like you're in a good place. What will be will be 🙏 I hope this post helps in some way
It's not the only thing. I feel nervous about being discharged and suicidal but hospitals arent the best place for people to stay so I need to be discharged at some point.
I would probably react aggressive and say to my new cpn she is'nt going into my ward round and they arent discussing me first like they usually do because of my paranoia but I know that all wouldnt be in my best interest.

I'm sorry to hear that you're not able to think straight, it sounds like you're feeling very overwhelmed at the moment with your CPN on your ward round. It's good that you're considering what reactions may not be in the best interest for you, and we're all here to support you. What do you think might help with calming your nerves for tomorrow?
Am I also right in understanding that you were supposed to go to your friend's house after being discharged but she is now having mini strokes and injured her wrist so you're having to go home instead?
im here if you want to talk.
May sound empty atm - but i do care x
Just to echo what Shaunie said, we're here if you want to talk

You mentioned you'd been discharged a few days ago, how have the last few days been for you?
