Went to the Dr's at 9.20 this morning to ask for some anti-anxiety medication as I am experiencing really bad intrusive thoughts/ suicidal ideation.
The Dr asked some questions so told him what is going on in my head.
He mentioned the crisis team. I said I don't want to involve the crisis team, i will be passed from service to service and end up feeling worse.
He said he had a duty as a GP to contact the crisis team so I said ok then.
He called them and said 'This patient is in crisis,' and told me to go home and the crisis team would contact me. He also refused to give me any anti anxiety medication.
That was 9.5 hours ago and i have heard nothing after waiting and feeling even more anxious and on edge. I ended up calling the drs just before they closed to say I want to go to put my pyjamas on and get into bed without worrying about the crisis team contacting me, so the receptionist said they will notify the crisis team.
It's NOT ok to not be ok because there isn't any support and this is why I keep seeing posts about suicides being at all time high
