I am on short term leave from work, basically because of exhaustion, I just can't seem to cope and have come to the conclusion that I am a burden to my therapist, who is wonderful, my family and useless at a job I once found enjoyable and recognized as a top perforner... now I just feel broken.... me and my T will be meeting and discussing more about this tomorrow... I gave my T a promise that I would act on no impulse until the 8tj
. The 8th is fast approaching...apparentlt part of myself believes I need help
Can anyone tell me if they have experience with vokoiimy
Tart admission and if you found the experience good or if it pushed you closer
To the edge??.

Hi Lindsey....I've never volunteered (even though I wish I could) but has been committed once...
Just by your wordings I'd go myself....the way you feel and think are danger signs of coming into depression. The plus side of volunteering is that you can always leave if it's not working for you vs the 2 week commitment.
This will give you a chance to talk to a "new" treatment team of your issues and see what they recommend....something more then you can get from your present mental health team.
In our system...we know we can't please everybody...but majority rules and if it's for the betterment of ourselves....then it has to be a must do.
Good luck and I hope that you get to feeling better.
