Just remember it is paranoia not realty. I know it feels that way though and is very frightening. No one is out to harm you. You are safe.

When is your next appointment with your treatment team? This needs to be brought up, clearly, seriously, and without holding back on the details. they need to know exactly what you are going through to be able to help you.

Take care.please stay safe.

Go to the hospital. You are experiencing serious symptoms that need treatment.

Talk to them openly and honestly. You are in serious danger from yourself, no one else. The paranoia that is telling you not to talk to them is working against you. It is the opposite. You need to share everything.

Hang in there!

I'm so sorry you are having such a tough time. When do you see your treatment team? Can you keep your self safe until then? I'm worried for you. The paranoia is not reality. Please tell your doctors the truth so they can help you.

Find the strength to call for help. These episodes tend to get worse. Ask someone you trust to take you to the hospital and this will start to go away.

You have had this kind of paranoia before and no one harmed you in the hospital. I really think you need to go to hospital asap. You are not safe from yourself. Please listen to us and seek help. People are trained to help, not harm you. Take a risk. It is worth the fight with your paranoia to try to think rationally, and if your can't. listen to us here trying to help you. We care and wish you no harm.

Can you stay safe for two days?

When you see your pdoc, maybe take in a piece of paper with all your symptoms and concerns to help jog your mind. Let them know everything, including the fact that you are worried they will hurt you. Hopefully, they will be able to help you come back to reality and feel safer. If IP is an option I would go with that. Treatment happens much faster that way. What kind of hospital do you go to?

Some hospitals suck but others are an excellent place for treatment. If someone is a danger to themselves then the best place is a hospital, even if just to keep them safe. I am sorry you have had such bad experiences. My experiences of hospital have been mostly great and have saved my life and given me the treatment I needed to get back on my feet. Sometimes it takes multiple hospitalisations to get things right.

Hang in there flutter! You have my support.

i dont know i only have to make it to tomorrow now so if i can make it to today and tonight without doing anything then i will be ok maybe i dont know what the doctor will do about any of this though i still dont trust them ugh this is so frustrating i dont know what to do i am still really scared and part of me is scared to tell them in case i do end up back at the hospital it is not very nice there a lot of the nurses are mean and dont like their jobs and the doctors there dont really care about the patients at all. it is not a good place to be when you are scared. that is if they even had any beds.
