Hello I was. It's depressing isn't it. I went straight onto IB at 16 on the incapacity in youth rules and have been on it (then ESA) ever since. You're not to blame for your inability to work. It's not like you'd choose it.

Sorry you're feeling so low enn, will it be tomorrow you're seeing the cc?

Hi to I. I've been off work sick for what feels like forever. I'll be around properly when not away and when I have my inter web back.

Is Up about?

Ennn · 11/02/2015 16:44

I'm OK. Yes tomorrow. Hope Up is okay.

I don't know if there's anything she can do really. Just depression isn't it.

Ennn · 11/02/2015 16:54

CC I mean.

Make taking therapy happen quicker maybe? I only have the psychiatrist so I don't know masses really. At least you'll know what the support group have said to her too I suppose.

Ennn · 11/02/2015 17:17

Maybe. Hope so. Will definitely not just decide I have defective personality and discharge.

would be better to tell the crisis team about these things up

UpOnDown · 11/02/2015 17:36

Nobody picking up.

CaulkheadUpNorth · 11/02/2015 17:41

If no one is picking up you need to call ooh doctors or 111

UpOnDown · 11/02/2015 17:53

I got through.

Ennn · 11/02/2015 17:55

Well done for persistence

Waiting for them to ring back Hmm Thanks for the support.

PollyPooic · 11/02/2015 18:09

good job up

hi iwas sorry to hear you are having such a horrible time, look forward to getting to know you through your posts

had lovely ride on brown horse, first for ages, not as calf-friendly as you might think - he's so unbalanced in canter and the ground is so awful I spend a lot of time standing in my stirrups, but he was so full of energy it really made up for not running, and my heart is full of love for him again

#1 is having a really terrible time, we went over her finances and some of her hugely important 'work' over the past few weeks and months has turned out to be almost entirely imaginary and stuff is in a very bad state but there are many plus points, she will probably be more or less ok from £££ pov in a few months

Ennn · 11/02/2015 18:12

I know how hard it can be Up

Last year before I tried to kill myself I called the crisis team and told them I was ringing them as I had promised in my crisis plan in the event of planning suicide , was asked if I knew how to do breathing exercises. Said no, they said "ohhhh okay" and that was it. They rang back a few minutes later to check I was okay, waking up DP in the middle of the night. Annoying.

Ennn · 11/02/2015 18:14

I mean I know it's hard to call them.

OP posts:
UpOnDown · 11/02/2015 18:16

Distraction, distraction, distraction Hmm Sad Sad

PollyPooic · 11/02/2015 18:21

up do you think you would feel safer in hospital and could you tell them that? or is it not that simple anymore?

don't want to detract from how good it is that you haven't come to any harm yet, which is really really great, but you do seem to be gathering momentum a bit

Ennn · 11/02/2015 18:22

Yes

am attempting t odistract with GTA. Not quite so stiff as earlier so fingers work for buttons and on here better but am so slow. Shitty shitty shitty. Anxiety, feels like I've swallowed a grapefruit.
