In reply to crisis/ not getting admitted, posted by fi on January 21, 2004, at 6:50:15
Just to say that when finally got help (4 days in crisis unit), it was v helpful. So tho it was excrutiating and undignified pleading for help from the good ol' NHS, with no immediate result, it was worth it in the end. Tho I know I was incredibly lucky to get a bed in the small unit.
Samaritans also continued to be terrific.
Next time I get in this state (so unlikely it will be an 'if' there), I will ask for help sooner and hopefully not feel so overwhelmed when nothing is available at once.
So if anyone else out there is staggering along on their own, hang on in there and things may well get better if you wait just a little longer..
