Feeling alone and vulnerable after seeing Mental Health nurse
I am sorry I haven't been on here for a while to comment on peoples posts, I had to take a bit of time off to try and sort myself out.
This is what i experienced yesterday.
I went out the door and with my head down i started walking along the street. I quickened my pace. Inside i was dying. I couldn't breathe, short sharp breaths , trying to hold back the tears, my emotions becoming overwhelming . The feeling of hopelessness I just wanted to scream out to the world "Someone Help Me " I just wanted it to end. I had to fight the fact that i could quite easily walk out in front of a lorry but that wouldn't be fair on the driver. My legs were shaking , my head dizzy , the panic rising within me, i needed to make it back to my car. I could see it in the distance, focusing on it as it got closer, i opened the door, sat down and let all the emotions out. Uncontrollably I sobbed and sobbed, i didn't think i would ever stop. Eventually I started to get myself and my breathing back under control. I sat their recalling my 25 minute conversation with the mental health nurse who i had just seen. I thought i was okay to drive the 8 miles home but i wasn't. I had to really concentrate as i kept drifting from one side to the other. To be honest all i wanted to do was drive straight into a tree but there wasn't any suitable ones. I eventually made it home in what seemed like hours. I sat on the drive for ages in a daze and emotionally drained.
I didn't know what to expect from my check in with my mental health nurse but i needed help and he gave me no answers , except to wait until i can have therapy . Thats not what i wanted to hear. Even when i showed him the cuts on my wrists he said the talking therapy should help. He hasn't changed my medication either. I felt worse for seeing him, i wish i hadn't gone. I feel like i am on my own fighting this until i get to do therapy again. I know i shouldn't of taken double dose of my meds this morning but i have to try something, if they work i can take double for the next few days until i run out
