I had feelings n I notified staff tht I needed help and I asked 4 certain help numbers, they replied with 'u hav the internet'. I felt my head was to busy to do anything . Is tht the right way 4 them to behave n they didn't do a visit to see if I'm alright
Is this gd?

    Hey @ellie2000 , how are you doing? I saw your post and wanted to check in <3

    It sounds like you were left feeling dismissed by your carers when you spoke up about wanting support finding Helplines - is that right? Your mind was feeling extreamly busy, and you wanted help which is completely valid. I hear that your carer's response has left you wondering whether they are being fair and good towards you. They also didn't visit you afterwards to check that you were okay. How did this make you feel, Ellie?

    I can see @eylah has passed on some Helplines to you - thank you so much Eylah.

    Can we ask, Ellie, what kind of feelings are you having today? Are there any specific emotions or topics that you'd like support with today?

    We are here to listen.
