Need an outlet and people who understand

[Strugglingalone]

Mumsnet keep deleting my threads and the last one had no reason whatsoever but the only way I am getting through at the moment is with random chat with people on here

Been struggling the last few days without a thread

Op what do you want to talk about?

What is happening with him at the moment, Strugglingalone?

Good to see you back.

Have spent the week with daily support from the community team, now gone away for half term so have no access to them and worried what that might mean

Pharmacy also mucked up my meds so I have triple the quantity I normally have which is a struggle - they are restricted for a reason but I was in a rush so didn’t really check what I’d been given till home

That's great that you are getting daily support from the community team.

Already struggling, frustrations of being with family and away from my current coping mechanisms

Op are you currently staying with family? Or do you usually live with them?
Because either way staying with family can be hard. I did it for a while and at times it was helpful and other times it added to my MH.

It sounds like your struggling but very active in getting well. It just seems things are not going a well as you need them to.

@Strugglingalone have you planned how to cope through the half term?
I think forwarded plan can help relieve pressure

I had just sort of hoped things would be ok here and magically I would leave my problems behind

So many tears today, had multiple panic attacks, apparently everything I say is in an aggressive way and therefore has resulted in countless arguments

I’m really struggling, desperately hoping I can speak to my care coordinator tomorrow otherwise I have no idea how I will get through

Having a wobble, feel incredibly anxious and nothing is helping

Hello. Do you have to stay the whole week with family or could you go home earlier, get back to your routines?

Home but struggling, now have the freedom to let my head speak again!

Thoughts are so overwhelming, I’m scared

Is anyone around, I can’t calm diwn, crisis team keep putting the phone down, I’m sorry

I need to talk

Why are the crisis team putting the phone down? Have you been aggressive or been told to call or are they just useless?

Who is in the house with you?

I am on their list of people they need to support by telephone but I am quiet and they ‘pretend’ they can’t hear me so keep putting the phone down which makes me more upset

I live on my own, struggling today, requested my nurse rang me but she was clearly busy all day as no call 😕

Do you have other resources to talk to OP - e.g. the Samaritans?

Really struggling today/ tonight - end up really distressed last night and it feels like things are going the same way but even earlier in the day

First level of the crisis team provided by mind has said I need to speak to the real crisis team, phone them and they are too busy to speak to me

In tears, the thoughts are so strong and no one will listen. I’m scared

How are you doing now OP? X

Crying, surrounded by things, mental health team won’t speak to me, it doesn’t matter now

I just need to talk, no one will let me talk

I'm listening OP.

Why won't they talk to you? Is it the quiet voice thing? Would you like to DM?

Yes and I’m not on their list so I’m wasting their time

Everyone just gets cross, they put the phone down I get more upset and even more unable to talk

I don’t mind I just need to talk

What would you like to talk about?

I just had a croissant and a cup of tea. I also dipped my areo bar into the tea to make it a bit meaty. It's my current "go to" pick me up after a little cry. That and binge watching whatever tv series im on (line of duty atm) x

I hope you mean minty 😂 I like minty aero but not in tea

I’m curled in a ball, trying to squash my thoughts, I need to self harm, my skin is prickling the urges are so strong but I know it won’t be enough

It was a mint areo- I dipped it to make it MELTy what a bad typo 🙈

Have you ever tried exfoliating gloves or washing with a nail brush? Sometimes it helps me when I want that feeling.

Or perhaps there's something you like to do? Or to tell me about that's happening?
