Hi all,

I went to see my psych today - she told me i wouldn't be referred for DBT at least not for an incrediably long time anyway. In typically abusive fashion my mum won't let me get treatment privately as a way of controlling me and making the situation go the way she wants it too. Its fair enough, its her health insurance and she doesn't want me to get better, so fine - i give up. Ive been feeling so low lately and nothing seems to have worked for me. I want to thank everyone who have been kind enough to offer me their support and advice. I too hope ive been of some help to the people ive met on here.

Love always, Bekki.

Hi Bekki

Our paths haven't crossed on here before, but I wanted to reach out to you as it sounds like you've had a really rough day. I'm so sorry that you will have to wait before you can have DBT. I have been where you are, and DBT was fantastically helpful. I hope it will be helpful for you too. In the meantime, there are other things that could be helpful for you.

I know that can feel overwhelming when you've had so much going on and so much disappointment, so I don't want to bombard you with advice. I just wonder if you can delay your decision to give up, just for a bit, while you rest. It sounds like you need to rest for a while before making such a big decision. Is there somewhere safe you can rest, or someone safe who will listen to you?

I am thinking of you and I am waiting here with you.

Bekki,

Just to be blunt.. It seems like that you're running away from your problems. You can't get into dbt, mom won't allow you to use insurance. So you push everyone away to be alone. That's your choice.. The wrong one in my opinion. This is still a good place to receive support. I've private messaged you, provided you with a website for self help with dbt. So plenty of opportunites for support here... If you reconsider we'll be here. If not good luck

This is good, because I have no problem with offering advice..

I think staying here would be good for you if you can't get DBT right now. At least have something ya know?

Bekki,
Sounds like you could use some friends. If you can find a more compassionate crowd than us in real life, then go for it. If not, why not stay with us a while? I don't think withdrawal and isolation does anybody any good. Mother Teresa sure knew what she was talking about when she said:

"Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than the person who has nothing to eat."

bb, please stay here with us; I need you. You were one of my first friends, and I feel giddy as though I'm in love when you respond to something I post. I need you and I need the feeling you give me. I know everything I'm saying is totally self-serving, and I should probably say something more encouraging. But I'm just saying what I feel.
