    Sending lots of hugs your way @eylah. I'm so sorry to hear you're going through such a tough time right now. It sounds really scary to be brought to the hospital against your will. I can only imagine how overwhelming that must have felt.We'll make sure to drop you a message from The Mix account to check in a bit more with you <3

    It's sounding so tough right now @eylah being sectioned and not wanting this to happen. It's so hard when things feel out of our control. How are you feeling at the moment? And how are you finding the support from the hospital staff?

    I was looking through Mind's website and came across some really helpful information about the different types of sections that you might want to read to find out a bit more about what's happening. They also have some information about your rights when you've been sectioned too.

    We're here for you @eylah. You're being so brave. Keep going and remember how strong you are <3
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    your experience will depend on which psychiatric hospital you go to so i hope youll go to a good one. being under section 2 sucks as your rights change to medication and treatment but its there so that you can get better.

    i'm sorry to hear about all this @eylah - i can't imagine how it must feel for you at the moment. you've been so brave and strong (even if it doesn't feel like it to you).

    as hard as it seems the nurses will want what's best for you so you can get better. i know its hard but it won't be forever.

    keep being strong and sending you endless amounts of hugs :3

    do you know when youll be moved to a psychiatric hospital?

    its normal to be anxious when youre going to be transferred. when i was transferred to the psychiatric hospital via the ambulance i had no idea what to expect. its okay, you can post as much as you want on here.
  • eylaheylah Posts: 7,784 Master Poster
    is it normal ambulance? or private? sry im just anxious.

    its a normal ambulance but the one i had was one with chairs and not a bed. idk why it was a different one. its okay, thats a normal feeling to have.
