Thanks. I have feeling I'll only see her a couple of times then get discharged

So had the appointment this morning and it wasn't as scary as I thought. Didn't have any of my psychology details which was annoying. Anyway she just skimmed over the suicide stuff and I've to try meds to see if they help. Thanks for ur help

Wow guys thanks for sharing. Yeah it is really scary. I don't have a therapist anymore they discharged me so this is my only chance of getting any help. Here's hoping the meds work x

Thanks for the info. And I'm glad u are still here :)

Thank you and yes the guys in here have definitely got me through some really tough times before. They were amazing. We don't have any inpatient ptsd units so it would definitely just be a general Ward. Fingers crossed it doesn't come to that! Hope u guys are all doing well x

Thanks guys I've not actually physically hurt myself yet but have attempted to carry out my plan but bottled it - came really close a few times. Have told my therapist about it but have been discharged so have been managing it on my own really. Surely if I've not gone through with it means I can...

Hi guys happy new year I hope you all had a lovely time. Just looking for a bit of advice if that's ok. I have my first appointment with the psychiatrist in a week or so and I'm not going to lie - I'm terrified. Can anybody give me an idea of what will happen at it? Will they make me go into...

Thank you @Bloomy and @Ronin :hug:

Thank u mim. I really hope everything works out for u :hug:

Hi guys Going to give the site a break for a bit but just wanted to say thank u for ur help and support. I hope u all find some peace x

Thank you. I suppose there's no other option, just need to get on with it. And you guys have been amazing thanks x

So had my lest session today. She agrees that a few months going it on my own is what I need to see how I manage. She thinks that the guilt I have is stopping me from moving on - thing is I don't know how to stop it. It's just there. I've to go back if I'm still having problems in 6 months and I...

This still happens to me after 18 months although therapy has helped. Give it some time and hopefully it will ease. Are u doing exposure therapy in counselling?

Thank you for replying. I've been referred to the psychiatrist so I'm hoping they can change the decision but I will ask on Monday. Just tired of having to fight x

Hugs @Shankara hope you are ok x

Thank you :)

Thanks Zoogal :)

Hiya I was wondering if I could ask u all for some feedback please? I'm not very good at writing feelings and emotions down but I want to write my T a thank you letter for when I leave next week. This is what I've got so far: Dear T I just wanted to say thank you very much for all your help and...

Hi guys I'm really sorry to be a pest but things have really come to a head this week. Have been discharged from therapy as my T is leaving and at reassessment said I had enough sessions and that this is a normal grief reaction. Even though I told her about the sleep problems, irritability...

Thank you. I think there is supposed to be an arranged ending but with her getting a new job that's not going to happen :( she even told me I wasn't ready to be discharged and that she should have pushed me harder with the exposure stuff. Oh well will send what she says on Monday. Thanks again x

I don't even think I've learned much-just breathing exercise which I can't focus on when I'm freaking out. But maybe that's just the mood I'm in tonight

If I need to be seen again I've to go to my GP to be re-referred. I have my end meeting with my original T on Monday-said she would get her to do a crisis plan with me. Think I'd have been ok with being discharged if I was in a good place. She said she wasn't going to pathologise it as she says...

So went for a reassessment today. Turns out they are going to discharge me as I've had 22 sessions and that should be enough. Still to go and see the psychiatrist tho but she wants me to see how I do on my own with no therapy for 6 months and to be re-referred if I have any problems. Bit upset...

That sounds horrible terry! :hug: I'm glad ur not using the cocaine and alcohol now x

It's a vicious cycle eh? :(
