Struggling

Marilyn
over 3 years ago

Hi I'm Marilyn. I have asd which they diagnosed when I was about 13. I'm now 24 but I am struggling really bad and need help and advice so please bear with me in the next bit. I am struggling with voices and thoughts. I've spoken to professionals but they detained me under the mental health act so I had to lie to get home again. The voices and thoughts are still with me and feel like they are getting worse and I don't know what to do about it. I'm supposed to see a professional on Tuesday but I'm scared of being detained again. The really worrying thing is that I keep getting thoughts to hurt others and controlling those is hard work. I also struggling with my baby which is just a nightmare and I think I have a personality problem as I seem to be balancing two lives. I have a job but I think I'll lose it soon as I'm never there, to afraid to leave the house. I feel like I'm nearly at breaking point now and am scared of what will happen when I hit the breaking point. I need help and soon but I don't trust anyone and struggling to open up face to face now.

    hi Marilyn

    we have talked before  havent we ? 

    who looked after your child the last time u where detained? how long where u detained ?

    the issues with bad voices in your head is that mental issue  is linked to more serious mental conditions such as schizophrenia and psychosis 

    but they may be part of your ASD or you have developed OCD and just needs to be managed.  see link below

    So you need help to work out if this is ASD or that something else is developing. .

    On good side u haven't hurt anyone --- the question is would u really  ?  if not then relax a bit  

    The professional is seeing you on Tuesday. You have to see them to sort this once and for all.

    The sooner you get help the easier this is to fix. 

    To prepare, why not write down all thats going on in your head to hand to them ( the Tuesday professional )  or to email to them.

    Think of Tuesday as the day things are going to get fixed.

    hope this helps
