need support
 
Hiya

As you know I am going out with a certain chap I like, we know each other as friends/ex work colleagues and now bf/gf. But there's possibility I could have either have BPD, Bipolar and PTSD but my pysch can't seem to make her mind up. But the trouble is that I am with this chap and needs to know what's out there to support me and help me through it.

I am also worried and anxious about my parents as my mental health issues are getting complicated with possible diagnoses and other stuff. They are not aware of my eating problems all the time and they are not aware of my hair-pulling. I am so scared that they cannot cope with me and I feel like I am a burden on them. Any advice on both topics would be useful.

I was thinking maybe my bf and parents could some sort of arrangement where if things get worse for me and I become unwell, my bf can take the initiative and call them to decide what to with me. I could also ask my cpn Lauren to write up a crisis plan and relapse prevention plan as well.

We've recent has an argument over it at the moment and its making me feel worse that I was already feeling

I'm sorry you had an argument, try and make sure you are both in a calm place before discussing things further. A lot can be said in the heat of the moment that isn't necessarily what is felt.
I think your idea of a crisis plan is a very good idea and something worth speaking to your CPN about.
It sounds like you're feeling very unnerved about your possible diagnosis. Do you think you could speak to your psych about these feelings and your worries about speaking about it with your loved ones?

yoyogirl 29-07-2013 08:38 PM

snailonvalium 31-07-2013 09:47 PM

Have you managed to get hold of your cpn? If youre feeling unsafe could you let someone know or ring the crisis team/go to a&e?

yoyogirl 01-08-2013 07:04 PM

I have told my cpn an she's aware of the situation

Ranger Fairy 01-08-2013 07:12 PM

Did your CPN have any helpful suggestions on keeping safe or a plan about how to keep safe?

yoyogirl 01-08-2013 09:48 PM

I don't know

yoyogirl 01-08-2013 10:03 PM

She hasn't got back to me

Ranger Fairy 01-08-2013 10:17 PM

I think you should keep trying to get hold of her. How are feeling at the moment? Do you have any distractions you could try?

yoyogirl 02-08-2013 10:37 AM

Hopeless overwhelmed stressed bored

yoyogirl 02-08-2013 10:37 AM

Distractions do work bit easily get bored quickly

Ranger Fairy 02-08-2013 03:00 PM

If you get bored easily, could you try switching distraction activities more often? Maybe try having a list of ones you find helpful and when you are feeling you are starting to get bored pick something from your list.

Have you tried to contact your CPN today?

yoyogirl 02-08-2013 11:00 PM

Yes she phoned me she didn't seem to concerned for me

yoyogirl 03-08-2013 10:10 AM

I am gonna write a official letter of complaint and see of a change of cpn can make life easier for me
