Hi all this is becoming serious now.

Deleted User

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.

  • Dear Nelly1985,

    Thank you for posting and telling the community what you are going through. We are sorry to hear that you are currently scared and unsure about what you need to do. It is good that you’ve let us know what’s happening and how you feel. Many people have similar thoughts when coping with so much and we hope you’re okay.     

     If you are unable to cope with the distress or despair, it’s very important to tell someone about your feelings or thoughts of suicide. Call your GP and make an urgent appointment. Your GP can make sure you get appropriate help and support . 

    The National Autistic Society does not currently operate a crisis or emergency service. We advise you to contact 999 or any of the mental health crisis lines listed on our Urgent Help Page if you are at risk of immediate harm: https://www.autism.org.uk/what-we-do/help-and-support/urgent-help  

    If you are not at immediate risk of harm, we would encourage you to speak to your GP or another health professional about this if you haven’t done so already. If it’s outside your GP hours call 111 to reach the NHS 111 service. In England, Wales and Scotland there is now an option to speak with mental health professionals by selecting ‘option 2’ when calling NHS 111: https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-services/urgent-and-emergency-care-services/when-to-use-111/
