What is the point of the crisis number?

[APieOfButter]

I have the number in my phone, what counts as a crisis, ie i know actual suicide would, or if someone was running down the street nude, but both them would be covered by 999, surely?
Sorry, that sounds awful. I just mean, am i mwant to ring them if i feel awful, but not like either of the above will happen? Have rung before, but don't remember as was so disteessed at the time. I know at least once they have called the police, and at least once they have told me to just go to bed. So I was wrong both times, but what would they do if i was right?

I feel like a massive fraud.

Are they there yet?

yeah. they came. i dont think they believed me. ive gone out to clear my head.

now dh os shouting at me down the phone. dont think he understands.
he says he will o kt ring them if i go home

Go home, take a sleeping tablet and go to bad.

Have a lazy day tomoro where you try not to think of anything - watch tv, read a book. Its sunday so nothing happens on a sunday. Have an early night and then go see your gp or MHN on monday morning.

Your DH is just scared and stressed and he does not know how to help you.

Give your self a break and try to relax.

What did they say?

Dh now not happy as i had pills in my handbag. Tbh dont remember how i got where i did. I fell over at some point.
Crisis coming out again at 10 but ive had one of the new pills. I dont feel safe.
Trying to distract myself.

Dh muttering to himself downstairs so ive put my music on headphones.
Im cheering up now!

Should i show someone this thread?

yes, show them the thread.

Write down how you feel.

Try keeping a dairy of how you feel and what you think and take it to your next meeting/gp appointment.

You need to talk to your DH and explain what is going on with you. If he can go to some of your meeting he might learn more about whats going on and be able to help you more.

But you have to relise DH is not a professional and you need help who know what they are doing and you need to take your meds.

You know what, i think i need to be in hospital. Ive never been in sunderland hospital though- bet its scary! And cold!

I just want to not have to worry what i will do for a few dwys.

Its not scary or cold its just a normal hospital ward.

It will not solve everything but they can get the meds right and make you able to face life.

BP, I've just seen this. I hope you're ok at the moment and that the crisis team have arrived.

Please let me know if you'd like me to come over next time you are on your own. We don't have to talk about anything, we can just sit and have a cuppa or go for a walk or something. I'm not on MN that often but I think you have my number.

Please take care of yourself x

Or I'm on Facebook if you want to contact me. x

on my way to hospital
im allowed my phone! which is a bonus.

so. what do i need to know?

and laugs - thabks :-)

I'm glad you're on your way to hospital. I hope you can get some rest and not worry about things for a few days, and that they review your medication. I'm sure they will take good care of you. Is it the QE? We've had a few nights there with DD and everyone was very kind.

im in sunderland

Hope you are ok. Sunderland hospital is fine, they will look after you.

I've never been there, but I'm sure they'll be just as kind. For some reason the night staff in hospitals always seem much gentler. I suppose they can spend a bit longer as everyone else is asleep.

You try and get some sleep too xx

Oh I'm so glad you're being looked after. And very glad you have your phone. Hope you get a good break (although I'm sure it will have its own stresses).

Don't forget you can pop in to the cybergarden whenever you fancy. We always have pot of on the go, and you're always very welcome.

Well done for being so brave

eek. i think dh is in a mood with me!

He is being a twat, you need the help and he cant give that to you.

He will get over it. He is just worried and stressed about you and not showing it in a good way. Tell him you need his support and love right now.

hes not being a twat. just confused i think.

hes coming to see me in half an hour!

today has been ok. did a bit of suicide plotting, bit of head banging, been quite agitated at some pounts but atm am really calm and chilled out.
