no its ok, I'm here for you. thats good your watching TV.
Helplines can be scary especially if you havnt called them before, the first time I called one I kept putting the phone down and even now I take ages to speak if i call. But they coul help you *hugs*

Thank You! What time is it there? I read a thread on here a couple days ago about helplines. There were some horror stories. They said it depends on which one you call n what you say. I'm afraid to take a chance.

its 5.55am here! although i'm wide awake, too paranoid to turn the laptop off and take my hood off. god it sounds stupid saying that, but if i take my hood off then they will be able to get me.

I only know about UK helplines I'm afraid, the only one I have called is the samaritans. What is it that your most afraid of if i can ask?

I've heard that they can possibly send an ambulence or police to your house and/or contact your doctor n even have you hospitalized etc. NOT AN OPTION!

you wouldnt have to give them your address, you could put the phone down.

It's been said that they trace you phone to get your address.

what about calling from a mobile?

Mine is prepaid n I can't use my husband's for that. They've said they sometimes call back to check on you. Besides, it's his work phone. I'm sorry Oliver, but I've been overcome with exhaustion n I have to get up early. Will you be ok?

*hugs Solo* its ok, I may make myself take my hoody off and get my PJ's on and try to sleep as it is now 6.15am here.

Hope you manage to get some sleep and please stay safe, you mean a lot to everyone here in the ward *hugs*

~Lots of Hugs Oliver~ Thank you so much! You've helped to distract me till I'm too tired now. I'm gonna try to get some sleep. Please try to get some sleep too! I don't know that I really meen anything to the ward. I don't think many even know I'm here, but that was really sweet of you! ~Hugs goodnight~

Thanks! ~Hugs back Mark~

I'm unsure about how I am. I feel kind of calm but really low. I managed to phone the voluntary crisis team and they have been in contact with my psychiatrist and the official crisis team so i'm just waiting to hear from them.

I hope it go's well for you Lindsay :) *Hugs*
