I'm sorry to hear you're feeling so overwhelmed and low at the moment.
Do you want to try and tell us what is making you feel overwhelmed, if you know?
Big hugs *hug*
I'm sorry to hear about last week, but do you think you could go back to hospital and explain how low you're feeling? You'll be safe then.
Do you have anyone to spend Christmas with this year?
I have family but I don't really feel up to it so i'm not sure what i'll be doing
Thanks for your replies and for being there for me I really appreciate it x
If you don't end up seeing your family over Christmas, I just want to remind you the boards are here, we will try to help you get through Christmas.
You don't need to thank me, we're all here to listen *hug*
Ah thank you I really appreciate it x
Okay, what about ways of distracting yourself when you're feeling like this, what do you enjoy?
I love drawing, and it completely distracts me from all of the bad stuff for a bit.
Nothing really. I am completely useless
What job do you have?
Do you think you could go and talk to your gp?
When is your gp back? Have you ever thought about online counselling?
The 31st. I have an appt with her then. Yeah I have but I couldn't afford it x
I can't link thesite article at the moment as I'm on my phone but I promise I will tomorrow unless someone else does.
Do you want me to turn my computer on and link them now?
And keep posting. You're not alone.
*hug*
I think you've shown alot of courage *hug* don't be scared .... butterfly123 is right you will get there when you're ready!

Thanks dollypop I appreciate it. I just can't see it ending any other way than me killing myself. I did and i'm waiting for them to call back Thanks for your kind words and being here for me thank you so much *hug*
You can't see any other way right now because your blinded by all the other stuff, you've got to work through it piece by piece to clear the way.

I guess so. Just hope things get better soon. I wish I could speak to my GP right now
Hey BrokenGirl,
How are you doing today? Did crisis team get back to in the end? Just wanted to say a massive well done for taking the step to reaching out for support, that's amazing, how are you doing today? *hug*
Best wishes,
Angel
Hey BrokenGirl,
Sorry to hear you're still struggling, have you thought about contacting Samaritans? It sounds like you could do with a listening ear. Do you know what's causing the panic at the moment? *hug*'s
Have you ever done Mindfulness, and used ways to relax yourself in the moment? Claire mentioned an app called DBT911, which covers a variety of distress tolerance skills, which might be amazing to check out! It sounds like you're going through a lot right now, but do keep reaching out to us
Would you be able to tell us a bit about why you're in 'such a state?'
Best wishes,
Angel
I can't seem to do that sort of thing at the moment i'm too unwell but thank you and maybe if i'm feeling a bit better soon then i'll try it.
The Crisis Team are making me in such a state...I have been so suicidal and they do sod all last night they were gonna send police out to me and today they wanted to come and shove meds down me I hate them they don't even know me how can they know what I need so i'm not seeing them now I give up i'm better off dead anyway
