Urgent... please help paniking about the blood loss! *SI trigger*
Ok, ok, ok...
i am seriously panacking, ive lost a lot blood, and considering I am already aneamic i know that this is not very good... i am really pale and dizzy now, and the last time i did similar i ended up having a blood transfusion.
However Hospital is totally out of the question, so please please dont tell me to go there as i dont want my parents knowing, and i will go to the doctors tomorrow...
i just need to know now how to look after my bleeding vein and how to look after myself tonight, and what to do to prevent passing out...
please please help.

To be honest all anyone is going to tell you is to go to hospital because if you are indeed as gravely injured as you say and are already anaemic to not seek medical help is very irresponsible.
Do you not think your parents might notice if you pass out from blood loss? For now put pressure on the wound and raise it to above your heart. Then phone for a taxi to a+e or get an ambulance. Say you're going to stay at a friends house or something if you are that concerned about them finding out.
As above. by leaving it you run the risk of of permant damage to your organs an even death.
apply pressure to the wound raise it above your head an seek treatment.
as above said! if its top the point your dizzing - you really do need to get to hospital!!!
holding it up as suggested will ease things!
if hospital is that out of the question - can you go to a friends house and call the on call emergency doctor (though i know they will want you to go to a+e)
would you ratehr go to hospital and lie to your parents about where you are going or would you rather they find you passed oyut in the mroning??
i know this is going to be a life changing decision if you get caught out for lying or if they find you passed out - but its a choice your gonig to have to make hun!
im so sorry that sounds so harsh

'crying'.. Im so sorry I dont know what to do... im so scared but the bleeding is easing, I will go to the docs in the morining and I will try keeping hydrated an stuff, im just scared... although part of of me wants to pass out, i know that sound awful but i dont know.... I dont want my parents finding out.. but i dont want them to see me passing out... maybe if i just keep the bandage on and sleep now, iwill be ok as i am still? I dont know...
All i know is that this feeling is blocking every other bad thought and once that has gone i will have more... Does that make sence...??
i rang the crisis team and they said the same as you guys... but im still stuck... im so sorry to be a pest...
Now i almost wanna just get out of the house an go anywhere where nobody can see me... they probably wont notice me gone anyway...
if you go to sleep you run the chance of not waking up at all. Your parents wont be mad, more glad that you could tell them and that you will be alive, so you need to go to hospital now.

HI, ok, um, I talked for hours on the phone to my friend last night, so not to go to sleep..I didnt go to hospital however much my friend pushed me... I have got an emergency appt with the doctor today though, an she most likely will get me to hospital...
I am really giddy... but i am ok... well you know...
I will let you know how things get on. sorry and thanks so much for the support.
i have had a shitty day.... basically the doc told me i needed emergency blood tests, so Ive just been waiting for the results which just came with a call from my doc... she basicslly said that my levels of iron are really low ... they are down to 8 and that if they get lower i will have to have a transfusion.
i told the doc that i didnt want to go to hospital and even though she thinks im stupid and has tried to get me to go, she is not too too worried as she gave me a stron prescription of iron and told me to go back to her in a week... She also dressed my wound properly and told me off about my alcohol and drug consumption... urgh.
i had to make a deal with her to see the psyhciatrist even though i dont want to, and she also told me to stop living in the past!! That really annoyed me as im really trying to move on from the abuse an flashbacks, but its not as easy as just moving on is it! urgh...
Anyway, im now on the waiting list again to see a therapist and other rubbish non helping proffesionals...
sorry for ranting and thank you for all your support! xxx
I hope you're doing ok now... well done for going to your doc, I know it is hard, but at least you did something to help yourself xx
Feel free to PM me any time x
