Mental Health Support Society MKVII

Thank you to everyone that replied. I'm now back in a hospital in Somerset (the same one as before).

Basically what happened, I was at home on Sunday night doing ok, then I started getting more messages from the shadows, and with that came bad urges. Then unfortunately, rather impulsively, I went downstairs and grabbed the car keys and sped off, with my dad running after the car... They immediately phoned the police, and told them I had taken the car and I was unsafe and I had been drinking (I hadn't).

I started driving towards Bristol, I had like 10 missed calls, thought it was my parents, but eventually I did answer and it was the police... They said they needed to check I was ok and to get me some help. I said no, and they said we know where you are heading (my beloved bridge), and we are sending police there now, and we know the route you take, so we will find you, but pull over and we can talk without that fuss. Now while a high speed chase would be rather fun, I decided I didn't want a criminal record, so I pulled over and the police found me.

I didn't even say anything, but was put on a section 136 pretty quickly. After some bitching with the police about the crisis team (they still don't reply to their answer phone messages even if the police call), we went to the 136 suite at the Psych hospital. I had a MHA assessment in the morning and it turns out I'm not a good liar at all. I said I didn't want to agree to anything, and that if they came back and told me all the options then I would think, so they went off, and about 20 minutes later the social worker came back and said "All 3 of us think you really need to be in a hospital at the moment, so we are going to section you". They told my dad the reason why they did this was because I am a "very severe suicide risk and having a worrying psychotic episode" and that they couldn't risk me being voluntary and being allowed out or being able to discharge myself.

Not sure how to take this, I really strongly disagree I need to be in hospital at all as I am not ill, but at the end of the day it's not like I even have a choice right now. I will keep you all up to date. Hope everyone is ok



Thank you mate.



Thank you, I will do my best!



Thank you, I feel like a failure mainly because I promised my girlfriend I would help her out with some things and that we would meet up soon, but then this happened, and now I can't meet her or help her out much. I know I didn't cause this, it was the shadows but I could of handled it better I guess. Thank you, I hope this will mean I can become happier



Read above! Thanks.



Yeah I was doing ok, going to keep doing that as best as I can, so hopefully they can take me off the section.



Thank you. I hope so too, I would like to manage more than 4 days out of hospital next time



Thank you, hopefully I will be able to find a way to live despite how I feel



Thanks.



Thanks








That's odd, I was thinking I hadn't heard from you in a while the other day too Thank you. Will do my best to keep in touch with all you guys. Hope you are doing ok.



Thank you. The people who serve the dinner were so nice last night and heard I hadn't eaten anything (apart from a packet of crisps and a ****e sandwich) in the entire 20 hours I was in the 136 suite so they made me a vegetarian meal especially for me and gave it to me even though I had missed dinner which was lovely of them.

18 today! I'm doing my best to act uber cheerful for my parents, but I'm struggling. It doesn't help that my mum bought a film for me which I really hate (Hide and Seek) because it gives me horrendous nightmares, and she bought it because she thought it was one of my favourites. I can't say anything of course, and she meant well. Oh well

Time to focus on being happy! I got a gorgeous teddy bear so I'm going to cuddle him (because I am super mature and grown up) and read a book until my mood has hopefully lifted. Birthday cake makes everything better, right?

I am awesome.

I got your parcel, thank you, it's pretty damn ****ing cool. I like the socks particularly, now I can feel hungry every morning.

As a thank you, and perhaps to brighten other MHSS members' days, I took some pictures of kitty playing with the mouse.

Pictures of cute kitty:


I think she likes it. She carried it under the bed after these photos and is chewing it/sleeping with it now.

um, so I kinda spent the night in hospital and the morning talking to hospital's mental health person, so that was, er, not so much fun, but yeah, kinda helps in someways to get advice and know how to get more help, though kinda **** it took my ending up in A&E for things to start happening

idk, still feel a bit on edge atm, but home now and safe which is the main thing.

OH GAWD I want that kitty.

She is so adorable!

Aww, kitty. Glad she likes her new friend. Careful with the sweeties, they might rot your teeth.

Oh I'm so sorry What happened?

nothing much in the end, I did something stupid, I ended up in hospital but they said my blood tests and stuff came back okay, still had to have some icky charcoal stuff and tests though, and crisis team want me to call them if I get that bad again and they want me to go see Off the Record as soon as I can.

Don't recall any SSRIs ever making me feel MOAR SUICIDAL.


Maybe I'm just in faggy mode. Or maybe I just don't remember anything of several years. Praise alcohol.

Are we talking animal rabbit here right?!

My thoughts exactly.
I feel that the society could do with seeing a picture of CherryCherryBoomBoom's rabbit. Possibly even of her playing with her rabbit.

Know that feeling well

Sorry you spent the night in A&E, and that you are feeling so **** at the moment. Here if you want to talk. But I'm glad that they are going to speed things up for you.
