Re: Struggling: TW suicide
I'm hearing you feel you've reached your limit and I'm concerned for you @creative_writer I will send you an email to check in. We all need different supports and our journey's aren't linear. Are you reaching out to your professional supports? 💝

Re: Struggling: TW suicide
@Paperdaisy❤️I've responded to your email. I just hope the wait for the mental health triage isn't too long because I am running out of patience. But I suppose, it's only been 8 mins so far but feels like forever at this point. I can also reach out to my psych if I need to.

Re: Struggling: TW suicide
Hey @creative_writer
know the place you are in. I have heaps of support around me too…. My psychologist actually told me recently that I have the most support she’s seen of anyone. I see my psychologist weekly, my psychiatrist at least once a month, and then my case manager I see at least twice a week, plus phone calls, and then I have a peer worker through new horizons who calls multiple times a week. But like you, sometimes it just doesn’t seem enough, although I couldn’t tell you what else would help…. What else is missing?!?!
hope calling triage helps 💕

Re: Struggling: TW suicide
@Eve7 I’ve just had a text message conversation with my older brother which started with me asking if he was coming up for Christmas and it ended with him make it very clear that his on our dads side like he always has been.
my brother has no idea what it was like growing up for. Going to my dads every second weekend and my dad not even being present. What it was like being treated as the outcast. The things that were done to me.
sorry your appointment was so draining 😞

Re: Struggling: TW suicide
@Eve7 appointments can be draining sometimes, hey. Its been like that quite a bit with my psych lately. Just started a new therapy so it feels like so many emotions that were buried deep are surfacing. I hope you are able to take care of yourself today ❤️

Re: Struggling: TW suicide
I’ve just stayed in bed @creative_writer but will try and do something useful soon before the day is completely wasted.
