Hi @redhead,

 

How are you going today? It sounds like last night may have been a difficult one for you, is this right?

 

Hoping you were able to use your distractions and reach out to your support system overnight Heart

I feel like I'm fading away. Like I'm a prisoner to the voices.
I'm really scared tonight

@lennycat2017 I've been in contact with my case manager.
@Jay-RO I'm pretty bad today. Honestly I want to give up. It's been not even 2 weeks since I tried to end my life and I wouldn't care if I do it again. But I'm seein my case manager this afternoon I'll talk about it with her.

Hey @redhead, are you safe right now?

It's great that you're seeing your case manager this afternoon 🙂 I'm sorry that things are hard today. It can be really difficult when we're feeling hopeless and want to give up. We absolutely care about you and are so glad that you are here.
What are some things you can do today to distract yourself until you see her?

@Jay-RO I just got out of my appointment with my CM. We talked about what's going on and made a plan for tonight.

That's great to hear @redhead 🙂 I'm proud of you for talking to your CM about what's been going on and I hope the chat was helpful for you. 

 

Well done on making a plan for tonight as well! Will you be doing anything else today?

@Jay-RO I got my plaster off which is good. It is so sore though.

I plan to just chill at home and play Xbox untill dinner time then work out the plan I made with my CM.

Jay-ROPosted 07-02-2019 03:56 PM
That's good @redhead 🙂 I imagine it must be sore, hopefully it continues to heal and feels better soon.

Chilling at home and playing xbox sounds great, I hope you enjoy yourself tonight 🙂

hey @redhead, sorry to hear about your toe!! Is it painful? 

That's cool that you got to see x-rays of it - whats the treatment plan for it?

Thanks for letting us know you're safe - it absolutely is the main thing.

@gina-RO yeh it's really sore.
I'm seeing orthopedic clinic in 4 weeks to see how it's healing. I'll be in a boot for a while

I can't do this. I need them to shut up. I need them to leave me alone.
I've brought myself to hospital and the waiting room is packed, there's 11 people in front of me. I want to just do what they want me to do. I'm so fucking scared.
I am safe but I'm sitting on the floor in the corner and I can't stop shaking

Hi @redhead 

 

Sounds like it was really stressful last night and it's not a nice experience waiting around that long when unwell. I'm wondering how you're going today?

@TOM-RO the Dr sent me home at 6am. I pretty much slept all day. I'm still really tired so that's my plan for the rest of the day

TOM-ROPosted 09-02-2019 04:33 PM

Totally understandable that you are so tired, sounds like a good plan @redhead.
