No need to apologise at all, you've had so much on your plate 
I hope having a diagnosis now is helpful, even though I guess on some level it could be frustrating/upsetting news to have had 
Glad your workplace are being good about it. 9.5 hour shift 
Holy moley! Glad you have some time to rest

yeah a diagnosis helps in that i can do more to help myself like work so hard and forget to take my painkillers
but also knowing this is pretty much me for life now, its not gonna get massively better and knowing that sucks bug tome!!yeah it was a tough shift. we had a powercut then our fridges broke and we had to waste literally thousands of pounds of food!!
yeah seeing my mum tomorrow which will be nice cos shes been in holland for nearly 2 weeks!!
Definitely not good tonight. Going to try and sleep but doubt it'll happen.
Got my PIP claim denied in a letter sent the day before I sent my form off, and 4 days before the deadline for my form. Brilliant. No assessment, nothing. Benefits advisor at CMHT is going to try and sort it out next week. Really not what I needed right now but ok

Honestly, where do they get these people. They just told me to 'calm down' the other day. Like great, 100% what I came here for thanks
I thought it was just my local crisis number that was useless. The man I spoke to each time told me to just be responsible and talk to my sixth form's counsellor instead!

Before I turned 19 and was able to use Childline, they were much more useful. Might give Samaritans or something a try next time because the crisis team just do nothing for me to be honest. Sometimes they really rile me up and I just want to put the phone down lol
My god I am fuming.
Just called the crisis line, in a crisis. And aside from being told to do knitting again, she was whispering down the phone things like 'you can't do anything' thinking I couldn't hear. I mean wtf was that about? Was she trying to make me think I was hearing voices or just out of spite? I'm so angry.

That's really really awful. Look after yourself as best you can and honestly think about making a complaint when you can

I used to do the 1-2-1 chat on the Childline website which I found helpful, although I was too nervous to phone them
. My GP has recommended the Samaritans to me before (even she thinks the crisis team are useless!) and apparently the people who volunteer for the Samaritans are genuinely really nice and open-minded people.
The crisis people are just not very good at all. I wish I had an old-fashioned telephone so I could dramatically slam the phone down on them

.Yes! The chat I always found really useful. I actually called them for the first time just after I turned 19, forgetting the age thing, and even then they were really good to me. Wow yes, I know that feeling

Starting a (small) dose of anti-depressant has really lifted my mood, my whole outlook has just changed. Is it the start of the "recovery", or have people experienced a "honeymoon" period where they work for a bit then wear off?
