Hi all this is becoming serious now.

Hi all.  I spoke out to my GP today and he has referred me for an emergency appointment and assesment. I know nothing will happen because i have lost all faith in the mental health teams. However I read the referal notes and hes put i am a danger to myself, adults and children. This has affected me very negatively. I am greatful for him taking me seriously and i am at risk but im scared now and am unsure what I need to do ? wait home? call for an ambulance or go missing? he thinks I have been mis diagnosed and might be bi-polar. I have a voicemail saying I need immediate help.. what am i supposed to do ?

My moods were over quickly then it took an hour now its days, when im super low thats it im dying that day, when its not and a normal range i feeling somewhat fine but scared it will happen again.  I cant live like this.

  • Breathe Nelly.  We've all had crises!  It is good that yours come, and then go, quickly........even if that isn't the case at the moment.  You are self-aware........just prone to a form of panic.  You are not alone in that.

    It sounds to me like your GP was "gaming" the system to help you......the GP used words and phrases that they knew would get you help as quickly as possible.  Don't focus on those words......just be thankful to the GP that they took you seriously, and wanted to help you.  That is the message I would take from those words.

    There are folk here who would be happy to help you stay sane whilst you traverse the "feelings" roller-coaster that you are experiencing.....because we KNOW what you speak of.

    Don't go "missing."  I can say that with authority sister!  If you were to go "missing" then you would feel the same as you do now, but just be MORE alone!!  That ain't progress!!

    You ask what you are supposed to do.......and I say again.....BREATHE!!  You have connected with me tonight.  I'll be to bed very soon, but that doesn't diminish the fact that you connected with me.  That is a WIN!  You are OK mate.  It just feels super sheet [not allowed to swear here] at the moment.

    Take the win.  Be pleased.  I take you seriously, and your GP took you seriously.  Now.......just breathe........get some sleep......I'll be around again in the morning......so let us chat then.

    Congrats for finding "here" and writing clearly.  You did good.  All is "better-than-you-think", I promise.

    Yours

    Number.

  • I will take your advice rtight now. Just note I cant hold on much longer am at my whits end.
