Polly is talking sense. I think.

Someone is coming out to see me. Trouble is he's rubbish, I remember him from the crisis team.

Would you consider a short-term hospitalisation, Up?

I don't think so.

I said I didn't want him to come and he's coming anyway.

((((( Ennn ))))) I'm sorry you feel so rubbish

Don't known anyone else who goes stiff and slow and shitty and immobile when they get depressed. Am shitty freak as usual. Not bad at the moment just slow and hands go rigid but when its worse its so painful and achy in all the muscles. Am fucking freak.

Hugs Up, thanks we're a right pair eh

You are not a freak, hugs.

Make sure you tell him everything Up

He's not famed for his listening powers.

Sorry to hear about your day Up. Try and talk to the guy who comes out. He'll have to listen eventually.

I talked. Apparently I'm seeing the doctor tomorrow morning (nobody told me). I had to point out that removing one ligature isn't going to change things I am very, very anxious about seeing the doctor. Presumably he's coming to my home(?) I'm worried that he'll be dismissive.

I'd imagine the doctor will come to your house. Why do you worry about him being dismissive? Have you seen him before?

Oh, and well done for talking

Hi there UpOnDown,
We can see that you are being careful with yourself, don't worry, but when we have a thread where people are feeling as down as yourself we usually add a link to our Mental Health resources - here. You can also go to the Samaritans' website here, or email them on [email protected]. Support from other Mumsnetters is great and we really hope you will be able to take some comfort from your fellow posters, but we are very glad that you are seeking outside help as well (and we really, really hope that the chap is good for you this time).

We also like to remind everyone that, although we're awed daily by the astonishing support our members give each other through life's trickier twists and turns, we'd always caution anyone never to give more of themselves to another poster, emotionally or financially, than they can afford to spare.

Sorry for hijacking your thread Ennn, and we know that this is information you guys already have, but it's just nice to be sure, we think. Absolute best wishes to all of you.

I've seen him once before, he was dismissive.

That's not so good, hopefully you'll get him in a better mood this time. What have you got planned for the evening? There's a comic relief edition of bake off on at 8 which I'm going to watch.

Can but hope I need to try not to think about it for now. Thanks for saying about the bake off, I've got gold on at the moment. I've been told to take my clozapine earlier than usual to knock me out. I'm worried that he'll say I can't be feeling as bad as I am.

DD is asleep!!!!!! (She's pretty nocturnal, so this is a Big Thing) so I might watch something like a normal grown up person (or not normal in my case)

Any idea what time he will turn up, up?

Tomorrow morning, can't be more definitive. Glad DD is asleep.

Taking your clozapine earlier isn't a bad idea Up. It might also mean that you'll be a bit more awake for the doctor in the morning.

Well done on getting DD to sleep Millie. What are you going to do with your time now?

I'm having a glass of wine!!

Hopefully I can take it early. Thanks Hellina, I can imagine you all handholding tomorrow.
