I just learned I have no psychiatrist. I called to find out the time of my appointment only to be told my pdoc isn't seeing patients anymore. I just OD'd on Thursday night... Was sent home by the hospital afterwards with a pill to sleep the night away, and I just started DBT. I have no real DBT skills under my belt yet. I feel so ****ing worthless.
I'm calling my GP in the morning to make an appointment asap because I desperately need a med change. They are doing nothing for me and are costing me a fortune as they aren't covered, and I am not working as BPD has been too debilitating lately. I don't know how I'm going to get a med change with no psychiatrist though unless they put me inpatient for the change. But the hospital, like I said, rejected me as it's 'not helpful to admit patients with BPD'. Feeling so low, so hopeless and worthless. Wanting to SH... But I have failed my therapist already this week. What if he gives up on me? What's to stop me from repeating the events of the past week. |

I'm at such a loss. I don't know what to do anymore. I don't know how much longer I can hold on.

Sometimes when things are very bad wait. Wait until you can see a doctor. Wait until you can see a T. Wait until you can start DBT. Breathe. Talk to your doctor about finding a new p'doc.
Give your body time to heal. Drink plenty of fluids and do something caring for yourself each day. |

I see you are in Canada. Do they have crisis stabilization places...its not a hospital but it is a safe place. Also do you have mobile crisis people who can come see you at home and maybe take you to crisis stab. The hospital that discharged you might be able to facilatate a referral if you call them. Here in the states there is psych coverage in the hospitals that could do this.

JessLynn, your experience reminded me of what I went through when I was 20. Please don't let the 'professionals' get you down. They are not worth it. You deserve to be treated with respect and heard.
