Does anyone else like MN HQ have any suggestions at all for an alternative?.

Justaboy · 04/12/2016 23:11

Aveiam it seems a quiet night but perhaps tomorrow you can get to see your GP to see if there are any treatment paths or help that do not involve a MH hospital stay? In our area there is a MH unit but there is a an out patient dept at our general hospital that treats HM problems perhaps that might be possible if you can just do that?.

Will you try it please, at least contact your GP. You have got to make a start so please try:)

There's no appointments at my GP until next Thursday I don't know what to do and the only GP I trusted has gone

I don't know if you are working, but could you go to a walk in centre when it's likely to be quiet?

The one near me has always got a queue out the door I'm too scared to go

That is such a shame. I don't know what else to suggest.
Has your head stopped spinning so much?

I don't really know. I think everyone is tired of me. I'd just really like to stop.

I don't think people will be tired of you. It can be hard to know how to help when you have such anxiety that it prevents you getting practical help.
Maybe you could ring the gp in the morning and ask if they have had any cancellations and could see you sooner. You may like a new gp as much as he last one.

Broken11Girl · 05/12/2016 23:41

You need help, lovely.
How about seeing the home treatment/ crisis team? Is there a crisis number for where you are? Google should find it. Or you could call 111 and ask what your options are.

Justaboy · 06/12/2016 00:53

Aveiam Why should everyone be tired of you?, you have had some awful experiences and badly need help and support.

Can you not just turn up at the GP's and wait?, it works at our surgery. You'll just have to be a bit assertive as much as you may not like the idea anyway will you at least try please and let us know the outcome?.
