i blacked out and fell down the stairs

i bumped my head play fighting with DH about 2pm, then passed out when i tried to get up. I tried to take myself down the stairs only i blacked out again and fell down the stairs. I was out for about 20 minutes according to DH and dd was crying cos she thought I had died. I fell asleep as well and was really cold. I jarred my back and bumped my head again and twisted my ankle. Someone said I could have concussion. I fell asleep afterwards too. I feel bruised, shaky and sick now. Am just looking on MHS website about blackout and am now very scared. Its happened a few times in the past few weeks without having panic attacks.

Great anniversary im having!

Mieow, you have said the sanest thing in this thread: "... we can't help her, she needs to do that herself.... " obviously that's not exactly what she has in mind...

sparklymieow · 09/05/2005 18:44

Sorry, can't help it [crin]

Obviously I'm joking

sparklymieow · 09/05/2005 18:49

if I could jump into my computer and help everyone I would, but I can't and Titania needs professional help, hope she is ok, and has got the help she needed...

Chandra · 09/05/2005 19:18

I think she is just expecting far more than it is realistic tbh. As when she asked us to help her find her littlerodent and then told us we were not helping. HOw could we? unless we are Big Brother we could not look under her bed surely.

just to let you know that i went to the doctors and he said i have low blood pressure caused by my ads, but that i am in not fit state to reduce or come off the ads. i am supposed to go back on wednesday morning to see my usual doctor so she can decide on the best thing for me to do next. he said that he cant make the decision for her but to see here ASAP.

I am doing what I can to help myself. I am going to counselling and been referred for CBT. I dont know what else I can do. Maybe I do rely on MN too much. But having nobody to talk to in RL means that this is my only way to let go. I have got my counselling tomorrow. Think the next one is the last one I am allowed on the NHS.

Anyway, as someone said, my internet access will be ending soon so you will be rid of me, my moaning and 'dependance' on you and the way I seem to upset you all soon enough.

I am glad you are getting some help there Titiania. Good luck; hope the counselling tomorrow and the GPs apointment next week can help.

pixiefish · 09/05/2005 22:00

i am trying. really really trying. I know a lot of you dont think that i am, but its tearing me apart. i know i cant rely on MN. Am just not sure what else i can do in RL. I dont have anyone to talk to.

Titania, a lot of people on here really want to help you. I don't understand depression, so won't judge you. I do hope you can get some real help, that way you can work away from feeling so needy. No-one here wishes you any ill but some of your posts are very contradictory, that's all.
Good luck and I do hope you can get the answers that you need.

misunderstood · 09/05/2005 23:21

I know where you are coming from Titania ,it can feel so lonely being depressed,and I find I sink into my little world.
Keep strong and positive.I find my children help me to do that.

HappyDaddy · 09/05/2005 23:27

Does anyone know where titania lives?
Maybe if there was someone in her area we could help her in RL

SoupDragon · 10/05/2005 08:13

Are you being 100% honest with your counsellor and telling her everything? Have you been honest about the domestic violence for example?

HappyDaddy · 10/05/2005 08:34

I wasn't getting at you, Titania. I was hoping to help. Please read the whole of my post and not just the bit you don't like.

elsmommy · 10/05/2005 09:09

Titania what area do you live in?
