Don’t know what to fo when in mental health crisis

have Access to crisis team and a CPN, but that’s usually just a phone call and a prescription at the chemist . I’ve never actually seen anyone from mental health team.

GP never has time, they’re off the phone within 2 minutes usually and again, it’s just a phone call; they never actually see me or talk.

A&E is across the road but I don’t know if they could or would help. I doubt it .

crisis team said on Monday there was a prescription getting done for me but usually takes GP 72 hours and then another 48 for chemist to pick up and process . Waiting on a text from chemist to say I can pick it up but not expecting to hear before Friday.

I don’t know what to do meantime . Last time I felt like this I was admitted for 24 hours . Don’t really want that again, that’s even more disorientating, but head’s a mess and not even been able to get out of bed let alone eat or shower .

do I just phone crisis team and tell them what I’ve said here?

Hi, I’m so sorry you’re going through this. I think you should reach out to your adult mental health team and tell them how you’re feeling. X

Sorry things are so tough for you. Would also recommend reconnecting with the crisis team. Hope they have some good advice

Some mental health trusts have a helpline you can call. If can you contact your CPN? Tbh if you feel Like you might harm yourself go to A&e?
