@Jozzy7 , it sounds like you're having a really difficult time, I just wanted to ask how you're feeling today? Are you getting any support for your mental health?

Jozzy7 · 25/08/2021 22:56

I think the Samaritans would really like to help you tonight Jozzy - why not give them a call? Their number is 116 123.

Yep, Samaritans are a good call. And good listeners.

Where I live, our council set up a 24/7 mental health line last year; I don't know if there's anything similar where you are?

Further in from tonight... I'd suggest a chat with your GP (or MH team if you are in contact with them) about how you're feeling/what you're experiencing; they might also be able to link you in with other support/services if you need it.

Take care and I hope things get easier x

Speak to your gp ASAP and tell them everything you've said here.
With your son being so young, it does make me wonder if you're suffering with some form of post partum anxiety/psychosis.

With support, you WILL get better. It's going to be ok. Xx

I honeslty have to wait to be assessed today docs rsng them then crisis team and now am going for a assessment im panicking because I don't want them to take my son away she said we may have to go in a mum and baby unit 😕

Mum and baby units are a way of keeping you and your son together. Your son will come with you to the unit and you would get help to feel back to your usual self.

Hope your assessment went as well as it could, @Jozzy7ozzy. As @Changeisneeded says, a mother and baby unit would keep you and your son together rather than taking him away from you.

I hope you're getting the support you need, feeling safer, and that that things get better for you x
