I just came out from a week of being inpatient and one of the first things i did was drinking. i dont know why, i felt the urge do drink alcohol. i know its not a good sign, but i feel kind of lost. its like outside, i can go back to my old routine: drinking, cutting, SHing, etc.
i dont feel good what should i do?

Can you express this to your mental health professional? It sounds like you're not necessarily ready to go outpatient.

yes, i went back there because i felt like i was going crazy. they said i'd better stay another couple of days but i declined, but said i'll go there this afternoon and we'll see how i will be doing. now im back home and after talking and taking antianxiety meds im feeling calmer now. thanks i needed someone to talk to i guess....

Sorry. It's hard when you feel safe or taken care of, and then find yourself coping on your own again.

I know it's not the same, but I get really depressed when I have to leave my mom and sister after a visit.

When I was in the hospital a few times I felt very alone and frightened when I left.

Be safe.

I've tried. but as soon as routine started today, i couldnt help going back to drinking at least. i think im having bad reaction to new meds. i tried to self medicate but it wasnt working so i called my pdoc and she agreed with me on tapering down the meds. but then, when i saw i was still going to SH too i left the job earlier and went straight to the center. they gave me something to calm me down asked me if i wanted to go back inpatient and i said no multiple times. i dont want another big mess, but promised i'll go back tomorrow and then i was honest with my parents about my difficulties today and they fortunately understood this time. im feeling a little better now, but still worried for tomorrow and the days to come.... i didnt expect i being this hard. honestly.
