Need ideas to help tonight

[steadyonnow]

I tried to get hold of my care coordinator today with no luck and know that things are getting worse, I feel a sense of dread and unease and can't stop pacing up and down. I have fairly well-controlled schizophrenia but when I get ill it spirals out of control rapidly, within days usually. My friend has sent me some meditation links but I just got irritable, same with TV and music. It always seems worse in the night, doesn't it? and I'm dreading the night. Any ideas?

Hope there're still some folks out there to send positive vibes for another night. Had a horrific couple of days and still at home alone, struggling. Crisis team have said I can ring in the night but I sometimes feel a bit fobbed off by them. Just fancy a distracting chat really!

Hi steadyonnow. Sorry to hear you're struggling. I've been struggling too with some mental health issues. I'm about to have a bath, I've got a Lush bath bomb to put in it . Perhaps you could have a relaxing bath to help calm yourself?

I might give it a go, or sometimes a really hot shower helps to concentrate on physical sensations and takes away all the mental anguish. Well, that's the theory anyway. Thanks.

Still here ❤

Ring them if you need them!
