I don't think there is an 'easy' way to become a volunatary patient - I think it's a discussion you'd need to have with your care team and it might well be worth asking.
It sounds like you're not really finding things helpful in terms of support right now (GP, crisis team, A&E), and it sounds like the care team are reluctant to admit you. Is there anything you think might be helpful, other than an admission, like seeing a different doctor?
The crisis team have people on boards red for severe, amber for severe but not that much and green for ready for discharge. And whats the point!!!!
Ive been offered the crisis house but had a really bad exspirence last time, theres actually no point for it and its a waste of charity money.
Ive seen to many doctors and they all say the same freakin thing. Like do i have to be a dead before anyone starts to listen. I think hospital would really help me right now. Having the crisis team come round and asking if I'm ok, hows my mood etc.. Then going and then telling them last week i was standing on a bridge and they were like "well what do you want us to do". Waste of NHS money.
