Hellloo again

Sorry I was away a bit...
Things got really serious and I ended up in hospital in Hobart. Now I'm glad to say I should be getting transferred back to my town soon though Im going to end up in the psych ward coz I'm on an order.
I'm not going to be able to help around as much in the near future sorry guys. I have to look after myself while I recover and I don't want to accidentally trigger myself or put too much pressure on myself. I'm still pretty sick so I apologise. 

I'm still thinking of you all. Take care.

Hi @redhead, things are never easy in hospital are they? Hang in there tonight - what are you doing at the moment?

@Ben-RO I spoke to the social worker and they said someone comes in on Wednesday to talk about all that stuff with.

And no matter how much I mention it the nurses said they can't do anything it's up to Dr, but Dr refusing to give me anything stronger.
This pain is really not helping to cope with things. Everything is making me angry.

Or speak to advocacy

You're entitled to both (at least as far as i understand the law on these things!)  @redhead so i keep thinking of that taco girl whos like:

Especially as the pain meds are a pretty solid breach of duty of care. I would consider jotting down how many times you have asked, who you asked and what the response was.

So now I'm even angrier, I just got a copy of my order. I don't agree with any of it, they didn't even consult me. It seems like they just copied and pasted it from my orders last year. It doesn't even make sense let alone mention why I attempted suicide. Fuck the stupid drs

I'm hearing you @redhead to be in pain and then get served with an order that doesn't make sense is a pretty bloody rough combo. 

 

Sounds like chatting to legal aid about the order would be a good idea!.

They say panadol is fine. Totally. I fucked my arm pretty badly and had surgery and panadol is really going to make it better.
Sorry I'm just over this.

I haven't seen the Dr, the won't tell me what's going on, I'm so angry coz it just hurts, the aliens are bad today, I've been forced to eat fear foods and binged on them and can't purge it, stupid other patients, I want to die, I want to go home....


@Ben-RO sorry for venting, I just have the most useless nurse today and have no one to talk to. I'm too paranoid anyway

I want to kill the fucking Dr. They won't give me pain killers...yeh this is totally going to keep me calm.

@redhead how come you're not getting painkillers? 

 

Ugh that's very stressful, perhaps more than stressful. I hear you 😞

@Bree-RO I have a single room this time 🙂
I don't have headphones but I have my tablet full of music.

I'm just so overwhelmed. So much has happened this last week and I have no one I can talk to. I don't want to talk about it too much here because it breaches guidelines and would trigger everyone.
I just wish my attempt had worked, I shouldn't have said anything on the forums that night.
And I'm not going to tell them my plans when I go home. What's the point.

@redhead 😞 Feeling overwhelmed isn't the best, you're just such a valued member of the community, I especially am always impressed to see how your pain is turned into strength and guidance when you help others, it's totally understandable to not feel yourself right now and feel like you want to hurt yourself again when you get out; but we really want you to be safe because we really do have a lot of admiration for you Heart

I am so glad you have a single room. I hope you at least sleep on it, and consider keeping a professional in the loop about the stuff when you get home.

 

The tablet of music sounds good - can you play on speaker? What's your favourite tune currently?

 
 
 
redhead
redheadPosted 21-06-2017 10:37 PM

This is my favourite song atm. 

 

I'm hoping my sleeping tablets will kick in soon and I can zone out for a bit. I'll chat tomorrow @Bree-RO

@Bree-RO no.
The stupid person keeps talking to me, I can't do this
 
 
Bree-RO
Bree-ROPosted 21-06-2017 09:30 PM

That's super hard, is it a shared room sort of set up? @redhead no headphones etc? We're here to listen.

redheadPosted 21-06-2017 07:51 PM
@Bree-RO yeh, it's pretty hard to avoid people in here.
I don't know what to do
 
 
Bree-RO
Bree-ROPosted 21-06-2017 08:20 PM

Hey @redhead I hear ya.. I am wondering, is there a staff member who you trust you could talk to about this person?

There's this really perverted and creepy guy in here I used to know. I feel unsafe around him...
