advice please

i have insomnia and its very bad at the moment, i also have bpd which is bad at the moment, the CMHT dont seem to be helping me or taking me seriously on my constant suicidal thoughts which are very bad, im on meds ive probaly been through every family of meds now the ones im on now are ok but i still feel the same.

I want help but i cant do it alone im trying, so im going to my gp about the insomnia and i will tell him how i feel, but i dont think he will do much as my mental state is really in the care of the CMHT who are not helping.

What do you think i should do?
I feel there is no more help and im lost

I think going to your GP is a good idea, he may be able to give you some advice/help that you have not approached yet.
I hope that you feel better soon

twinketears I am really sorry to hear that you are finding things so difficult at the moment. I can appreciate how you feel. CMHT sometimes are a bit useless to say the least. But what i have found in the past is when there hasnt been as much support which i felt i needed i have been surprised by how well i have managed to cope, and draw strength from within. You dont have to give into these suicidal thoughts hun. I know it may not be of much comfort be we on RYL are here for you if you need anything.

Going to your GP sounds like a good idea. I can see that you are struggling quite a lot, and I know that not sleeping can make things that much worse - I also have insomnia and I know that when I am tired all my symptoms get worse.

I wonder whether you have tried sleeping medication at all, or if it is worth asking for a referral to a sleep clinic who can work with you on the Insomnia side of things. Getting some good rest and being able to recoup may well help to improve your other symptoms and experiences.

I do hope you can find something suitable for you soon.
