ooops

i think, on reflection, that i need to stop talking to H, my therapist, and everyone else. getting threatened with sections is getting a little tiresome.

I hope you don't stop talking, because I think it will help, long term, i just wish they could be a little more supportive and stop just hitting the default of section her. *hugs*
out of curiosity have you considered a tc?might give the intensive support you need?

i wish they would stop with the default, and actually listen to what i was saying too. i just wish they wouldnt keep saying they will sort things out, coming up with all these oh so brilliant ideas, which then never happen. its over 2 weeks since the deadline they were supposed to have sorted out somewhere for me to stay, and everyweek i get told 'next week we will have a date to start the day unit', which never materialises and its all just doing my freaking head in.

cant get a place in a tc-i dont want to end up in a bloody psyc ward again, cos it doesnt help-you just get lumped in with everyone else, and no more support than you would have had anyway, cos so short staffed etc-and it just stresses me out. i would be very up for an ED specific tc, but the nhs doesnt really prioritise bulimia, and basically my weight isnt low enough to meet any criteria for it, and cant afford privately.

Urgh, thats pretty crap, i wasnt expecting the nhs to be good in all fairness, however I did think they might do something slightly more useful.

I am really greatful that I did find someone who the self destructing was ok with, he asked, I shared honestly, it was only when I could barely focus on a session that he said, no more od's as well as not killing myself, which was fair enough because I wasn't able to actually do anything in the state I was in, but he never went down the sectioning route, and oh he could have many a time,

I know leicester and milton keynes do effectively community tc's where you are almost a day patient, but I wouldnt even consider the leicester one if I was you(I wanted to punch the bloke....and then the letter he wrote to my gp was full of errors too....but i atleast had a good gp who I said this too)the milton keynes is a pd one I think.
Mixed reviews about the acorn in leeds, but too mixed for me to recommend(sorry)

maybe turn up to a sessison with a suitcase and announce your camping out in their waiting room?does your uni have anyone in student support who specifically is mental health who can kick them up the backside to put in politely?

Kim has my email(and me on fb)if you'd rather email than carry on mamouth comment convos.

P.s in response to yesterday, Im glad you don't, not because I want you to suffer, hell if I could I'd take away your pain, but because I think i've seen glimpses of who you can be, and thats pretty good, and I'd like to see a world with you in, rather than not. <3
