should i spell it out?
 
Is it a good idea to write how i am feeling down and give it to my crisis team to read? just think they may have a better idea of whats going on when i feel bad

sounds like a good idea, I find it easier to write things down

Yes, the clearer they understand it, the better they will be able to help you. Good luck x

Thanks guys, i'm just slightly worried they will look at my ramblings and panic

Katiee 22-04-2009 02:00 AM

Hun, I honestly think that would be a great idea. (: xo.

What makes you think they will panic? Being a crisis team they will have dealt with a lot of 'extreme' cases. I'm pretty sure that what you write will not phase them and it'll give them a clearer picture of how you're feeling etc.
Are you worried about what they'll do?
I still think it's a good idea, honesty is the best policy :)

Sweetie they are trained to deal with people in a crisis, thats why they are there to help, they know what they are doing don't worry about them. Writing is a very good idea I think, I know I can be so much more honest when I write things down on paper because its there in black and white.
I hope you manage to get the help you need.

hope it goes well.

but yeah i think its a great idea
this is what i did becuase my crisis team didn't ask many questions, but there was a whole load of stuff afftecting me in a big way, so i wrote a massive letter explaining it all, it was a bit rambly and didnt make much sense in my opinion, but they made sense of it, and reffered me early intervention.
so i ended up getting the right help becuase of the letter :)

yeh it seems like a really good idea.i need to do the same for my psych team!! if we struggle to say it then it is really good to write it if that is easier x
