I feel the need to reach out here but I don't really know what to say. I don't see how it will achieve anything anyway. But I just need some kind of help, and I can't seem to get it irl.

I know people say I'm not alone, but it looks and feels like I am.

Possible trigger:


I've been trying so hard to get through to people, so I can warn them of the state I am. But it's like no one cares. What am I meant to do?

Who have you been reaching out too? I am so sorry they haven't listened. We all need support to get through this! Please don't give up! Shout louder. Get their attention. Have you seen a doctor or therapist? Please don't act on those thoughts . have you tried ringing the Samaritans? I ring them sometimes. We are here for you on PC. We understand. Please keep writing here and we will listen. What are you going through ?
(((( hugs )))) 💕💖💔💖💕

I'm so sorry you're having difficulty getting help and support IRL

I don't really have any advice re the "services" or lack of them in the UK

Do you have a good GP?

We are here for you

I think this is a start by reaching out on this forum. I think in my opinion that you should see your doctor and explain how you're feeling. From there maybe he or she can recommend a psychiatrist for further help. Definitely don't hurt yourself. Things can get better. Do you have friends or family you can talk to? Just venting your feelings is a great outlet.

I'm just so stuck. My GP won't do anything when it comes to my mental health because I'm under the care of my mental health team...and then they are just useless. It's impossible to get through when I need them. My care coordinator keeps on changing, I finally thought I had a good one and now I can't get hold of her!

And my friends have other stuff going on, it wouldn't be fair to burden them with this.

I know I need some help, but at the same time I just don't think I want it anymore. So tired of it all.

If they are good friends you wouldn't be a burden. Try opening up to someone. Maybe it will ease a bit of the way you feel.

Sounds like this mental health team isn't doing what they need for you. Are there other organizations around your area that help with mental health? Maybe reach out to them or if you really feel upset do you have crisis phone lines where you are? You can call them and talk to someone and vent. I know where I am they have options like this.

There are a lot of doctors/care coordinators who I should have complained about but never did. I have only met this one twice..she really did seem ok so I will give her another chance. Maybe she was sick or something...

i currently am unable to get a psychiatrist/ therapist because i cant afford it... and im not going to go back to the clinic i was going to because they wouldn't listen to me...
i can't talk to anyone in my life about things because its really.. disturbing... and i dont want anyone to know that im not the strong optimistic angel that everyone sees :/

so i know how it feels not being able to get help... i went 4 years through the clinic i was going to with misdiagnosis and overmedicated and not treated for what i needed to be treated for which in my opinion compounded what is wrong with me...
but they wouldn't listen to what i was trying to say so i quit them...

its not easy when you dont have anyone to really get support from...
but im getting the little support i need to keep struggling along from here till i can get a new doctor...
my GP is scared of my mental illness and wont prescribe anything but wellbutrin... even though she knows i was taking the klonopin...

it sucks.. but we have to fight, these illnesses will try to take everything from us...
we are not the illness... its the illness that is fooling us and making us think that we have nothing to live for...

i know my words dont mean very much... but i dont want you to end it like that...
you deserve to be happy and have a fulfilling life... but because we struggle with these things we have to work extra hard... but we can be more caring and empathetic than the people that dont struggle with it...


you know the saying... just keep swimming... we'll find nemo...

Your words mean a lot actually, thanks I do love finding nemo , used to sing that to myself all the time.

I did finally get through to my care coordinator this morning, she is gonna chase up my T and someone else who I'm meant to start seeing and arrange appointments and take it from there. Just gotta try and hold it together until then I guess..

Hi HalloweenSkye

Hang in there and keep going. I know it is tough. I am glad you were able to reach somebody who is going to make things happen for you. I know you have struggled for a long time. You deserve hope and healing.

Don't give up. We are here for you. You are in my prayers.
