I want to cancel my skype and also facebook. I have googled. Sorry, I can't work out how to do it. I need to get rid of them both. Please, can anyone guide me what to do?

Hey mosp, how are you feeling right now? Lots of MN are listening to you and want to help you find some peace of mind.

Are the DC at school today? Are you alone? Can anyone come round to be with you?

The quickest way for you to get support is for you to get to your docs asap. that's what they are there for. When you get to see doc, tell them you need urgent help.

If you are honest with the doc and let him/her know how desperate you are, I am sure they will do everything they can to get you urgent help.

Please call your GP right now and insist on an appointment today.

I'm home alone. Girls at school.

Just managed to get up from the sofa. I need to get on with some housework but my body is constantly shaking.

Wish I didn't have the children to think about :(

Get yourself some lunch and a drink.

Watch some tv.

Just take it a few minutes at a time.

I can't eat. Yesterday I burnt the same number of cals as I managed to eat, just from walking to church and back. I get choked up if I try to eat. I'll try to drink something wholesome.

Soup, smoothies, cereal. You have to eat.

you dont feel safe posting in OTBT

Could you really not phone crisis team or Samaritans or New Pathways??

molepom · 21/05/2012 16:32

Pm me then if you want. That way you can type it, I'll read it, offer suggestions and then it will be deleted.

I love a happy ending Smile

See, you're not alone. You're not worthless. People give care, even if they don't know you.

I hope you're feeling better then you were. You frightened us!

MrsSnaplegs · 21/05/2012 17:13

Mosp came to see how you were today, glad you're getting some advice and support here still
I hope your GP comes through with your appointment - most surgeries have appointments available on the day but you need to ring at 8 to get them - if receptionist tries to ask why you need an appointment just say its an urgent mental health issue and you need to be seen ASAP

I'm not pushing for a GP app. It's the therapy I need. Retro- there is no end in sight for me, sadly.

RetroMom · 21/05/2012 17:22

You could push your GP for referral for therapy. In the meantime, listen to some of the good advice you've got here on MN.

JustFab · 21/05/2012 18:38

Don't give up!

Don't be defeatest.

There is a light at the end of the tunnel and you will be fine.

At the moment it reads like someone liked your photo and you have wanted to die ever since. That can't be it so you need to find someone qualified to talk too.

NotGeoffVader · 21/05/2012 21:10

Mosp, I too came back to see how you were today. Definitely don't give up - keep pushing your GP for a referral and do consider talking to the samaritans as they don't know you, and it may help just to get some stuff out. Also they may know of other routes by which you can get help.

Like molepom, I am happy to be a sounding board if you just want to rant/vent or let it all out. I won't be online for a long time tonight as I've had an incredibly long and emotionally draining day but I'll be around tomorrow as I am working from home.
