Thinking of going to the hospital

Thinking of going to the hospital, maybe some time in the inpatient unit will help. But I’m not thinking of hurting myself or others so I doubt I’ll be admitted and I know my partner will be against me going because the inpatient unit connected to the clinic is terrible. The best inpatient unit is about a half hour drive away and I’m pretty sure no one will visit me anyway.

I’m just feeling so overwhelmed, emotional and paranoid. The voices are really bad right.

Some things are too hard to tough out. Just hang in there. Don’t give up. Some times the best thing to do is nothing. Don’t be afraid to ask for help.

Did you take some medication? Do you have something for anxiety like L-Theanine? Can you do some breathing exercises or sleep for a little while?

If ypu really feel you need to go,go.i got tired of my illness and went to straighten it out

Is it meds youre taking thsy are not helping

I take meds but I haven’t had my injection in about 4 weeks and I’m not handling it well. I just took my anxiety med and my partner is picking up some of my refills. I’m not having self harming thoughts today. But I do sometimes wish I would go to sleep and not wake up.

I am sorry but why did you not take your injection? Is there a possibility of getting it urgently? 4 weeks is a lot of time.

You have to stay strong and healthy. Take some time to spend with your pets, maybe take a long bath too.
Hope the anxiety medication works for you. Hugs

The old clinic discharged me because of Medicaid cab drivers not picking me up or not having rides in general I cancelled the appointments several times because of all this.

The most the old clinic would do was give me refills for the pills.

Isn’t there anyone who can drive you there? I thought your partner had a car? You can also Uber if you have a credit card? Just use Uber for this trip once a month and get your injections! Take the bus!

My partner’s van’s mirror and side door were damaged by her accident she wont drive until its repaired. I think she is scared.

Find a way to receive your injections @cbbrown.
Take Uber! @mermaid1 is right.

It’s important that you keep up with your meds.

The clinic discharged me I have to go to another clinic. I feel a bit better now. The afternoon meds have kicked in and I took a long hot shower. It helps to have friends like everyone on here. Thanks

This comment, “I wish I could go to sleep and not wake up” red flag. I told my dr once that i didn t want to kill myself but if a truck were coming and I couldn’t get out of the way, well darn, she immediately sent me to the ER notifying me that if I wasn’t there within an hour she would send the ambulance to my home. You can go to inpatient, I’m sorry your partner isn’t supportive of it neither was my husband and for the first time in my life I found myself sitting on the edge of my bed holding his gun, installing a new carriage and taking off the safety. I don’t recall what stopped me but I scheduled the next available appt with my therapist and she called my husband and daughter. Go get the help you need before you find yourself in such a position. It is not unreasonable to be inpatient if you are feeling so unstable and vulnerable.
