Crisis team

I've been put under the crisis team again. I don't need them, I'm not depressed or suicidal. I had to agree to have them to get out of hospital, otherwise they were going to section me. Now they are telling me I need to sleep and that all humans need to sleep. Well I don't so maybe I'm not human, I mean I don't remember being born so I could have come from another planet instead.

@setmestraightplease I'm back at home now having breakfast. I left my phone at home this time so the police couldn't track me. Been watching the early morning ferry and also saw a fox and some swans.

Sounds good @Olimar

I hope you have a good day :)

How are you doing?

I'm having a low day but a trip out sounded nice 👌

Have you had to see the crisis team today OP? I hope you are ok and have had some rest after your night walks x

Olimar · 07/01/2024 19:13

I've spoken to the crisis team earlier today and they wanted to know where I was but I didn't tell them. So I'm trying to find a good place to hide in case they send the police after me again.

They just want to know you are safe.

Flowersbutpain · 07/01/2024 21:17

It is better to try to work with the crisis team (or at least appear to go along with what they want) otherwise you are more likely to be sectioned and lose your freedom (trust me, I know).

I don't need the crisis team, I'm not depressed or suicidal. They are working with the police and social services who want to drug me to control my brain because they are scared of my powers. I'm going to get a boat and sail far away where they can't get me.

If you speak like that then you are likely to get sectioned.

Scutterbug · 08/01/2024 14:05

Are the crisis team visiting you? I know you don’t want them to but I wondered if they are still visiting anyway. What are you doing today?

Wolfiefan · 08/01/2024 17:22

You need to cooperate in order to be left alone. Taking (stealing?) a boat won’t make them think you are well.

This, you need to play the game OP, you should know that by now.

Discomboobulated · 08/01/2024 17:34

Where are you getting the boat from?

Olimar · 08/01/2024 21:47

I forgot to turn my phone off and they tracked me again, caught me at the harbour and arrested me.

Did they arrest you or section you under 136? Where are you now?

Flowersbutpain · 08/01/2024 22:14

I’m losing patience with this. Not sure I believe this complete lack of insight from OP as she isn’t helping herself.

When I had psychosis I was like this. The whole point was I had NO insight. I thought everyone was trying to harm me and I needed to get rid of them. I trusted nobody. I thought my phone was bugged and people were trying to control me through the tv. I was scared of my family as I saw them an enemies. I tried to run away. My point is OP is either quite unwell or this is a horrible hoax so I’m erring on the side of the former.

Thanks @Scutterbug that’s a good point. My psychosis took different form (I thought it was my fault that my relative was ill because I was evil) so I was struggling to understand why the OP couldn’t play along with the crisis team to avoid being sectioned.
It must be terrifying to not be able to trust anyone because you think they are trying to harm you.

setmestraightplease · 08/01/2024 22:28

Hi @Olimar where are you now and how are you doing?

Olimar · 09/01/2024 00:09

They handcuffed me and arrested me but then they section 136 me. So now I am at a hospital miles away from home where they keep trying to make me take medication.

I’m so sorry to hear that @Olimar
Take care of yourself and let us know how you are getting on xx

Wolfiefan · 09/01/2024 09:22

@Olimar here for a virtual handhold. I’m so sorry.

Scutterbug · 09/01/2024 12:11

@Olimar sorry to hear this. I hope they are kind to you. Keep us updated with what the plans are. Much love x

Ok, so do you know where you are now - where the hospital is?

Discomboobulated · 09/01/2024 21:10

I keep checking in on you. Hoping you are ok x
