Good good. I'm glad you got some sleep.
As for the burns, it's common to blister, don't pop them or anything and follow the FA advice if you're unsure, and obviously the GP is you're concerned.
A lot of members here, myself included are under the CMHT and I know it can help with different aspects of your issues. I hope you get a referral.
Oh and when did you start the Citalopram?
Also, this is your bloody thread, Michael. You're allowed to be get ALL the attention.
I'm sorry I had to go last night, Mike, but I'm glad this thread was made for you as I was worried out of my mind! I hope you manage to make an appointment x

Hey Mike, you're awesome & don't deserve to be feeling this crappy. You've been there for me a lot & I know a lot of other members & it's about time you let us support you for a while.
I'm really glad you managed to get the appointment - be honest with them & I hope they give you the referral you need.
I'll be thinking of you.
*sending lots of mental strength & hugs*

Good luck with the appointment this morning, Mike! I hope that you manage to get a referral to the CMHT. The ones in my area (obviously just different to yours, just!) are okay, so I hope yours will be too. The MH understanding in your town seems to be quite good, from what I can gather from my experience, so I hope you're okay.
Please don't take pills or anything like that. I care about you and a lot of people care about you and don't want to see you struggling, so please reach out for the help you deserve.
Mike has seen his GP this morning and they have decided to send him to A&E to see another doctor. He's feeling pretty scared but I've assured him that they will look after him and give him the best treatment they can. He obviously can't text much but he's asked me to update his thread and if I hear anything else, I will let you all know.
Sending you lots of love Mike xxx
You can't lose hope when it's hopeless.
You gotta hope more,
then put your fingers in your ears and go,
"Blah blah blah blah!"
Mike, I hope you get the help and support you need. You're amazing and I'd hate it if anything bad happened to you because you so deserve a good life and to be happy. I'm always around on here and by text, you know that. So if you need me don't hesitate to contact. Much love Mikey! X
Thank you everyone! Your kind words really do mean a lot and are actually helping me to carry on..Thank you! Sorry i'm not quoting them all and being nicer and all that.
Right, as Lanny said I went to see my GP today and while I was there he asked me if I would like to see a head doc (my words, not his) so I said yes, next minute he tells me to leave the room because he's making a call for it.
He comes out of his office and comes up to me and tells me the Adult Mental Health Liaison Team are expecting me at the hospital and I need to go there now, I won't lie, this freaked me out, I thought I might get kept there or something like that.
Anyways, after waiting around and all that two nurses from the team come to talk to me an asses how they can help me and what's going on and all that.
Here are the main points to come out of it..
- They are recommending to my GP that I only get one weeks worth of meds at a time because "it's not wise for me to have so many at a time"
- They tell me I also need to stop drinking, they actually made it sound like I have a problem with that which I don't!
- I need to get myself some friends and do something with myself.
- They have also given me a referral to a group thing called Shards, does anyone know it? Anyone have any experience with it?
The group does sound good to me from what they told me and from what the leaflet says...Might be helpful, never know.
They also told me about a free councelling I can get from a place called Cobweb, they prefer I go to this one as there isn't really much of a waiting list but I still much prefer the sound of the other even with the wait.
Anyways, i've gone on enough, i'll be quiet now haha.
