hey everyone, sorry I havn't been around the last few weeks, I was in the Lake District last week with my sister. It was a really good week except the crap weather, we got to the top of Scafell Pike (the highest mountain in England) and we couldn't see a thing because we were just in a cloud!
how is everyone?
also I've said it elsewhere but wanted to say it again, huge congratulations to Mark, so proud of you for being a year free :D

Daft little update on my situation - I posted a while ago about how I exhibit a lot of bpd traits, and that things were getting worse and worse... I saw the doctor - but a different one to my usual (something I was actually really worried about but he was all I could get) and he seemed more willing to entertain my issues, and issued a psychiatry referral.
I couldn't actually speak about it all, but I had 3 a4 pages of head-babble for him so I think that helped me effectively be more honest than I've ever been with a doctor.
When we (me and my partner) told him about my usual dr saying she agreed bpd likely but didnt want to send me onwards to push for a diagnosis due to the medical professions stigma, he seemed quite shocked.
Thanks for the support I got last time I posted. x
Hope you had a good holiday Oliver! Are you having an easier time as you weren't feeling that good before?
Vampiric- im so glad that you have a good doctor now tht is willing to help you get the support you need! When you said your dr originally said he didn't want dx you because of the stigma I
Was quite shocked as my psych dx me with it on our first session but didn't make it official until a few sessions later as he wanted to make sure. How are you feeling now? Is he referring you to CMHT?
Sarah love hope the appointment goes well and your mum doesn't find out. Just be honest with them with the way you are feeling and everything it may get you the help you so badly need at the moment!
How are you today Colour?
Kat, are you still at PARC? Is it helping you become to a more stable place?
I have to see my CPN today but I'm really scared especially after Friday when he said to the on duty psych I would be ok in the community but then on the phone yesterday he said we need to talk about alternatives to the community now. It's not working. So really scared to be IP again cxxx

tinkles- be honest lovey, you need the support and hopefully that will help you to get it.
Same goes for you sarah, they can only help you if you're honest.
Mark, was the film good? I've not seen it. I'm struggling today but i'm trying to cope in non harmful ways for the morning. Do you have much planned for today?
being honest is really scary though, i feel like their gonna take away my escape plan if im honest...and i know that means im safe but at the moment thats not what i want ...
iver never seen 28 days later is it scarey? i cant watch scarey films at all.
