Trigger possible ....
I am not in a good place ... depression is running wild , feeling of fear tremendous acting out in unhealthy ways the whole nine yards...
So today i have a T appt .. i told her "i am not doing good" "I called the emergency line over the weekend" "my head is spinning" "im afraid" I told her about what i have been doing lately ... but i honestly think it fell on deaf ears... At one point i actually said "omg i am going to cry" the response was nope sorry but we only have 10 min left...I have been doing well for a long time , but im freaking out now...idk where this is coming from, what triggered it but like i said to T ..im going 100 mph straight for a head on collision... after T , i had my normal 3 month check in with pdoc... i told her how bad i have been heck i told her everything... even at one point mentioned all the voices ( my own ) going thru my head the constant noise ... havent ever talked to her about much of anything before, but i have been seeing her for about 7 yrs.. when it dawned on me what i had said ... i was like omg telling the pdoc that your hearing voices isnt a smart thing to do.... she laughed... i bet i said 5 different times .... i need someone to know IM SCARED... normally the conversation is .... how have you been... ok .... are you taking your meds ... yes maam... have you seen T lately ... saw her today ....is work and the kids going ok ..... about the same job is stressful , but nothing too exciting .... ok lets get your weight and set up something for 3 months ok ... sure
Today she was like well i will see you in 3 months ... and i actually said .."is that a good idea"?.. she was like ... call if you need . ARE YOU KIDDING ME... T by the way will see me in the usual 3 weeks ... OMG

They may be assuming you are having an isolated incident. It is also possible that you did not convey your fear as well as you think you did. I have trouble expressing the seriousness of my emotions when I get like that too. And, I am no expert, but if all the voices in your head are your own, you are likely not hearing voices. Rather, you are having racing thoughts, which is very different. Call them if you do need them. Make your point again if you have to.

Would it be at all possible for you to contact your T and see if you can schedule another session soonish? Like yet this week or next? Or maybe a phone consultation.

I would say, contact T, let her know that you need help coping right now, and that you didn't feel that you got the help you needed in your session today.

at some point your distress has to be more important than your pride please take care of yourself and ask for what you need. the only person harmed by you not doing so is you.

Hey there,

I have had this happen before and I know how upsetting it is to feel like you are pleading for some intervention and nothing happens, it can almost feel like people don't care. I'm afraid you will have to push this further and phone your therapist or pdoc and tell them how bad you feel and ask for more support if possible.

I know you said you don't want to go to hospital but I was wondering if you think it may help keep you safe?

*huge hugs*

I hope things feel better soon!
