Thread: Lowest point in months

I am now at the lowest i have been in months. Feeling suicidal, i hate myself and really struggle to do anything anymore.
We have had problems with neighbours etc and so now I struggle even going out. I have tried to talk to people but even my GP says for me to pull myself together.
I am taking meds but they don't seem to help. Things are so hard, and its so hard to even explain the despair and hate in me for me.
I had hid it quite well from my oh, until i got into bed the other night and just started crying - i couldn't stop. I stayed up till the early hours - i don't sleep very much anymore anyway.

That is disgusting of your Dr to say that to you Can you get an appointment with another gp within the practice? I would also seriously consider putting in a complaint against that Dr. I think that if you can, phone the surgery first thing tomorrow morning and get an appointment with another Dr.

Sorry you're feeling so down

You dont have to put up with that sort of antiquated talk.
Is there a nurse led drop in clinic that you could raise your concerns with. Maybe a well woman clinic.
Please dont let this go, and always remember it is not a fault with you, its something you cant help, if you had a broken leg everyone would sympathise, but because your illness is not visible it doesnt mean it doesnt exist.
Lots of love sent.xxxx

Your GP is an arse!

Luv --- you know you need help, we know you need help. I know that you woud love to be able to just pull yourself together. But it just ain't that simple!

Get an appointment with another GP in the practice. Talk to your HV if you use one. Phone up the maternity unit where you gave birth.

I know it isn't easy. I know it is so hard to find the energy to get help. Get it though. Keep talking until you get someone who will listen.

Feel free to PM me if you need someone to talk to. I've been through all of this. I know what you are going through.
