I have been suffering from severe PND. I’ve been under the MH team who haven’t helped me, resulting in me paying for private therapy. My daughter is 11 months old now. (I’ve written on here before about my experience, you may have read my things before)
I am still under the perenatal team but with little care. I rang them up Tuesday telling them I’m very suicidal and they said they’d ring me back. They never did.
My husband also left me in April.
I’ve attended a&e suicidal before but no attempt, i was sent away with paperwork on meditation and relaxation techniques. I’ve been told because I talk about being suicidal, they’re not concerned. I also don’t have a low enough bmi to get held with my eating disorder.
Today I woke up, DD went to her Dads for the weekend. I couldn’t hold on anymore and I attempted suicide. Rang my best friend when I realised it didn’t work, she told me to ring 999 and she arrived when the crew did.
The ambulance crew have brought me in but mentioned a dr will have to do a care assessment on my daughter as she lives with me. Will she be taken off Me?
I’m still waiting to be seen. The last thing I want is my DD to be removed from me when I’ve been begging for help ever since I was pregnant (15 months ago I was referred).
I feel like I’m burdening my best friend, I feel like I don’t deserve help.
Can anyone shed some light?
