Can't Fight The Suicidal Thoughts

It's important to understand that therapy is not friendship, and it's not a two-way street.

We (or...
Oh yeah I fully understand she's not my friend-its just that I won't have anybody to talk to about it when she's gone and this is terrifying. The reason I've got so bad is because I've bottled it all up. I'm just worried that without any support I'm not going to manage. My family went through it too so I can't talk to them and my friends aren't interested

Why can't you talk to them?? My cousin killed himself last you and me and my family was there for each other through it. No reason why you and your family can't be
 
Who diagnosed you? And who's treating you? I don't know where I'd be without mine. She's freaking...
Morning Missy :hug:
I was rescued by the police in the middle of July 2015, 2 weeks later a Dr suspected I had PTSD, put me on medication and sent me to a clinic to be evaluated correctly.
I saw a psychiatrist who said it was too soon after the initial trauma to be correctly diagnosed and to come back at a later date, so it was about 4-5 months later after the trauma that I was officially diagnosed and it was confirmed that I have severe PTSD.... I am now still on a waiting list to see a T and receive EMDR. :)
 
I'm suprised a doctor told you that so soon. I don't know your story but I'm glad you were rescued....
I was in a very, very bad way, I was in a total state of shock, couldn't speak etc, the woman (my angel) who was looking after me (staff from the refuge) day and night, was the one who took me (forced me) to the Dr's. I didn't say much, he asked me questions about sleep etc.... I answered the best I could and my angel spoke for me when I couldn't answer, I just cowered like an animal in his office.....

I tried -i asked my friends to talk it grumpy with them but they wouldn't. Don't want my family to know how bad thins are they have enough to deal with already. I am so sorry about ur cousin that must be absolutely devastating xx
 
I am so sorry for what u went through. I can't believe they have left u all this time to get therapy!...
There's actually a 3yr waiting list....yeah I know, horrendous, But This clinic is also the best clinic in the county and specialises in my kind of trauma...I do think it's worth the wait though, if somewhat Agonising, because this clinic has a fantastic reputation and is private sector not NHS.
 
Could you even get some nhs treatment in the meantime?
I probably could, but I don't trust the NHS, that's why I chose this clinic......but, If I'm going to let someone probe inside my crazy brain, I want to make sure first s/he has all the relevant qualifications and experience to do so. And because I've never had a T in my entire life, I want to make sure I get the best treatment available... No matter how costly it is.
