Yesterday afternoon my nurse referred me to the hospital because she was concerned. I got there and a different nurse spoke to me and said she can either admit me or send me home, but if I go home there is nothing they can do to help. I get the feeling that the nurse didn’t want to help and just felt I was wasting time, when it wasn’t even my idea to go. I’m so frustrated that it was an all or nothing situation, I thought they could at least review my meds.
Sorry to hear that. What was it that made the first nurse believe you needed to be reviewed? Are you having trouble with delusions or voices or whatever hallucination you experience?

Im having very negative voices and a delusion that’s making me question everything. Not sure how much I can say without triggering someone?
I’m not sure what I was expecting to happen, but didn’t expect to be sent away with no support. Im getting in to see pdoc but not for a few weeks. Just feel like they can’t be bothered/I’m not really worth helping.
Well of course you are worth helping. You’re just as worthy as anyone else. Seeing as you’ve gone back home and didn’t get admitted, is it possible to go back to them if you needed to…as in, if your experiences became worse would you be able to go to the hospital and be admitted? Never mind whether they can be bothered or not, if you’re struggling, you need the support.
Thanks. I could go back if I felt I needed to but honestly I’m reluctant to because of how they made me feel. I guess I’ll just try to ride it out until I see pdoc.

What help do you expect?
I often feel like I am on an assembly line of psychiatric treatment. In my case it is because of a lack of resources. That is a problem with a lot of psychiatric treatment.
Not sure what I expect really. Possibly just reviewing my meds. It just seem like checking boxes rather than trying help.
