Nobody will help me

I've just tried to get my prescription for my meds but it wasn't there and the doctors say it wasn't requested and will take 48 hours this has caused a massive panic attack because I can't survive without those meds, the doctors don't help me, the crisis team dropped me, I rang the crisis line and they told me to go to A&E i don't need a&e i just need some support and no one wants to help because i have bpd

the doctors told me to self refer for counselling but its £`15 a week and im on benefits i cant afford it

why doesn't anyone want to help me? what am i supposed to do? I've been self harming again because i can't cope anymore. I'm scared and i cant keep putting on my husband all the time he already has to care for me and our kids and one of them is a teenager putting us through hell sending fucking topless pictures to a boy over snapchat and saying its no bgi deal, not doing her work in school and the other is 5 and i've scared him today with my breakdown and i just feel so worthless.

This link might help with the medication issue www.nhs.uk/common-health-questions/medicines/where-can-i-get-an-emergency-supply-of-medicine/

Hand hold here too x is it worth calling 101 can they get an emergency prescription sent to your nearest pharmacy?

LadyDeadpool · 08/10/2018 17:01

Thank you for the hand holding and link we have to call the doctors back and see if we can get the medication tonight.

I just feel so let down by the mental health services there's nothing out there for me and I'm on ESA for my MH conditions so even they can see its bad but I feel so abandoned and like such a burden on everyone. It doesn't feel like there's ever a light at the end of the tunnel for me.

So sorry you are going through this.
Mental health services are so poor. It is awful.
Have you considered contacting MIND (mental health charity) for support?
They might be able to advise you about counselling.

You could try 111 and see if you can get to an out of hours doctors tonight who could prescibe them. So sorry you are going through this. It's hard to get much proper help.

If you do feel suicidal then do go to A&E, it is there for emergencies though seems a silly place to send people. The Samaritans can also be good. There's normally always people on here too so there will be people who will help. Try not to harm yourself if you can, you are not worthless you are just going through a difficult time and need support through that. If you are having trouble with your daughter school will have access to support services for that if that would help rather than add more pressure.

Do you have an urgent care centre near you? There should be someone there who can give you a short term prescription

Hi LadyDeadpool

We’re so sorry to hear that you’re feeling like this. We wanted to share Mind's information with you – it has practical tips on what you can do when you feel like this and where to get urgent help. Maybe take a look and see if there’s anything which might be helpful right now.
