Something’s not right

What am I supposed to do

Re: What am I supposed to do

@Snowflake how can a crisis service be so dismissive of how someone feels. I honestly give up even reaching out anymore. 

Re: What am I supposed to do

@Former-Member I'm sorry you are not feeling supported, know that we are here for you and that you are still reaching out for support on the forums, did you contact the crisis services like lifeline (13 11 14) tonight?

Re: What am I supposed to do

@Snowflake yes I did. I guess I really am just not worth helping.

Re: What am I supposed to do

I'm sorry that whoever you spoke to was not helpful, and still sitting here with you minute by minute as the panic passes. Is there something we can focus on that would be more helpful at the moment?

@Snowflake it's not passing and being so dismissed like that has only made it worse. I've had enough. 

Re: What am I supposed to do

Hi Gremlin24. its Traveller here on forum moderating this morning. I am so very sorry to hear you are struggling today. I'm thinking maybe try again Lifeline on 131114 or even 000 if you need to....we are here on the forums with you. i know you support others often on here and its time to support yourself. Youve been through this in the past and managed. Please take good care of YOU!
Kind regards
Traveller

Re: What am I supposed to do

Hi again @Former-Member, i have sent you a private message and we are here supporting you as best we can. I know you are aware we are not crisis so am encouraging you to call 000 if needed or try again Lifeline 131114. I know you said you felt worse when they didn't assist you earlier but if you try again, you will get another counsellor I'm sure. I am so sorry you are feeling so awful today. Some of the grounding exercises could be helpful? which ones have helped you in the past? 

 

Warm regards 

Traveller

Re: What am I supposed to do

@Former-Member good morning. 

I don't really know what to say/what might help. I'm here though. 

Re: What am I supposed to do

Morning @Former-Member 

I managed a couple of hrs sleep. 
I woke up thinking about you.

I hope you have managed.I know other nice people in the forum have been a saving grace for everyone having a hard time last night.
I hope the messages of support and friendship you need right now are making a difference for you. 
I know you are worth fighting for. You are one of the first people I have interacted with on a forum. 
Things will feel better soon. 
I will keep checking in. I hope you’re able to get some rest. And a warm cuppa tea for your soul.
