Thanks for the replies. I don't see how a respite admission would help particularly because there is nothing specific that's stressing me out. Just life in general. My Uni support team have basically requested extensions/special provisions for the rest of this term and my support worker has taken over a lot of practical stuff, like filling in my benefit forms etc. I feel an admission to the day hospital may be helpful but it's recently been closed. They have increased my meds and I'm seeing someone from CMHT two or three times a week and psych review again in 11 days.
They did say to me today that if things get worse I won't have a choice and will be having an 'actual', slightly longer admission. Which I also don't really want especially because I feel like I'm actually working with them generally. I think I would feel better if I knew where an admission would be but it could be one of three towns and one ward is horrendous (it's actually ring closed next month for not offering 'an appropriate level of care').
