Day Services

[xXMessedUpXx]

So my Psych agrees i seem to be getting worse not better and that i need more support so she's reffering me to Day Services. Is anyone else involved in this? What does it entail? She said something about one-on-one stuff and group activities but i'm kind of scared asi don't know what to expect. It will probably be months before i get in but i'm already worrying,.

I went to day services for a while, it was ok.
Mine kinda reminded me of school. There was a timetable and different classes on at differnt times. Things like art, and learning about nutrition and how meds work as well as relaxation and stuff. And they can keep an eye on your meds and alter them a lot easier. Also if you are feeling unsafe, they can arrange further help, quicker than going to a&e.

Thank you for your replies :)

Not as worried now as I was. I just hope the referal goes through quickly cos i can't cope with waiting :(

I use day services in my area and they've been really beneficial to me.
I have art therapy, groups such walking, creative writing, mood management and assertiveness.
I have a case manager who is an OT and she helps me plan my timetable and keeps me updated with upcoming groups.

It's definitely worth a try! xx
