I feel I should be excited but all I want to do is curl up and sleep. How are you CG?

Crazy Girl - The way you were treated was despicable. I really wonder why some people go into the medical/caring profession sometimes!
When I was on the mental health ward where I used to live I used to have panic attacks and I know the best thing for me to do is to go and sit by myself for a while until I've calmed down. When I was on the ward, I was made to sit with all the other patients, which made me feel a lot worse.

Hello everyone,

i want to die, ive come to teh conculsion that whichever way you look at it its best for everyone, including me. i should think thats a choice im entitled to make if i want.

I agree with you. It is a choice you are entitled to make and if that is genuinely what you want to do then it is up to you. However do you honestly think it is supportive to tell others of your plan on a support forum. have you thought of the emotional pressure you are putting on some of the virtual friends you have here with a public rather tasteless big brother style suicide plan.

Most people who commit suicide just do it. most people who act in the way you are are crying out for attention. There can of course be exceptions so no one really knows your true intentions but you will be putting people who know you through a range of emotions that if they are in a dark place could probably do without.

There is plenty of help available but you have to work with people and not against them by constantly putting up road blocks. not everyone in a hospital is evil and in fact the majority want to help. iam afraid though that at the end of the day they can be as helpful as anything but change will not occur unless you are willing to give too.

Hello all; just catching up from yesterday again, as usual.:o

CG I could weep at how you were treated in the past. I don't wonder you fear hospitals.
But it doesn't have to be that way - you said the consultant was struck off - it could be that the nursing staff have also changed. Have hope, my friend.

I'm informed that Mr LW's office is closing at 15:00 today; and he's on call for the next 4 days, and working from home on 29th so if I don't manage to get online, please don't anyone worry about me, OK?

I have to admit, I'm not too well at the mo, heading for a jolly old lupus flare; but it's something I've dealt with before, and at least Mr LW will be here to help me with stuff. LOL You have two choices when you need help to put your knickers on - laugh or cry! I try for the former.:o

Peace and light, and ((((HUGS)))) to all who could use one.

ab- i value this forum as a place to 'say' things i cannt always say out loud and i think a lot of the other people on here do too, you chose to pounce on one sentence out of a huge dialogue, as you do. id prefer that you didnt reply to this as i dont wish to argue with you again becase i think you enjoy it too much.

crazy_girl

lw- hig hugs for you too! i kinda know what you mean with the knickers thing coz hubby helps me with loo-type stuff and yup its either laughing or crying inst it?!

thats really bad what they did to you, you wonder why some of them go into the profession!

im starting to feel maybe a bit more positive about going on teh ward should i need to, i think teh staff would have changed in that much time, well i hope so anyway!
