That is a super hard one my beautiful friend, did it take you long to get that appiontment? Can you maybe change it for another day?

I can't remember do you have access to a mental health team, some early intervention might be a good idea to keep you safe little one.

Thank you @outlander for being forgivving of my lack of knowledge xxx

ive been seeing the treating team for about 2 yrs to try alot of other options but none have been successful so its coming down to the harder options now @Former-Member
it took me nearly a yr to actually get into them to start with. i see them every 3-6 months depending on the treatment and how long they take to work/if having dreadful side effects etc but usually its around a 2-3 month wait. i dont want to cancel it though.

thank you @Anastasia i dont know what tomorrow will bring

[outlander]

thank you @Shaz51

[Anastasia]

will someone supportive be going with you @outlander 

[outlander]

ill be going on my own @Anastasia
i cant get anyone through an agency (like a support worker) to come with me and theres no one else and theres no way i would ever take my mother. its something ive been keeping hidden for a long time.

im sorry i think i have to go, im not coping to well atm and dont want to trigger anyone or anything. thank you everyone for being here i always appreciate it

Not cancelling is a good idea if it took that long. I can empathise with how hard this issue is for you and nothing I can say right now is going to take away any of the pain and stress around it. Wish I was more help right now.

I will be with you tomorrow sitting with you and ready to listen and chat whenever you want to. You will not be alone tomorrow my sweet friend
