hey my lovely friends I have been sectioned again and I’m 3 hours away from home . I haven’t been able to settle in I’m on level 3 observations which means I have a staff member 24 hours a day with me following me around watching me sleep even standing in the shower and toilet with me . I have tried to break out 3 times each time being restraint I’m actually petrified

    I'm so sorry to hear this 🙁

    That seems a big deal to me … even criminals don't have that level of observation … I'm sure they felt they had a good reason but doesn't make it any easier for you

    I hope you manage to settle soon or better yet they feel they can let you go as soon as possible

    Hi @cupcake88 - I'm sorry you're unwell again, & being so far away from home must be making it very difficult. I hope you're able to try & settle there & get the help you need at the moment. Know that we're all thinking about you & wishing you so very well. Sending extra hugs, x

    Hi I’m so so sorry you have ended up back in hospital and your 3 hours from home. It must be terrible having a nurse with you 24hrs a day, once things settle down with you this will lessen and i really hope that happens soon.
    Once you feel a bit better you will be able to do things like painting drawing or whatever kind off things you enjoy doing and that’ll help pass your time and hopefully calm things for you.
    Please remember we are always here for you we care a lot about you. ❤️

    hey every one just to let you all know I was transferred closer to home to a hospital I hate they discharged me after being there for 2 hours let me go still feeling suicidal. My community nurse said she’s run out of ideas of how to help me the crisis team don’t help any more I feel stuck I feel like the only way out is death .

    Hi @cupcake88 - I'm dreadfully sorry you still feel so bad, & worse, unsupported. I wonder if your GP can help, but in the meanwhile do go to A & E if you feel unsafe. Ideally you need more support from your community nurse & the crisis team. Do you still have a support worker helping you? Do stay safe my friend, you mean so much to many of us here, x

    Heya @cupcake88 I'm so sorry to hear they've discharged you, I'm echoing what Chaiarieds has already said. We're all here if you want to talk things through.

    I've popped you an email, please be on the look out for it.

    hi every one so I [removed by moderator - possible trigger word] last night and my husband called a ambulance I wouldn’t go so they threatened to call the police to make me go with them I decided to go with them I then refused blood tests and I was forced against my will a blood test . The mental health team with in the hospital are looking after me they have arranged a mental health assessment they want me sectioned ,

    Please have a read of Albus's email if you can. Keep us updated if you're feeling up to it, but looking after yourself is the most important thing. I hope things start feeling easier soon.

    Hi my friend I’m so so sorry you are back in the hospital you have a complaint against, but the important thing is you are there and you will be looked after. I know it won’t seem like it but things will improve you have gotten through this before and you’ll get through it again.
    I’m glad you can get a delivery from Sainsbury’s.
    Please remember you have good friends here that care a lot for you.

    Look after yourself ❤️

    Hi @cupcake88 - I'm pleased you're back in hospital as you shouldn't have been discharged, but sorry it's not such a good one. Hopefully this time things will be better for you, & at least you're safe.

    Great that you could get a Sainsbury delivery to the ward! We're all thinking about you, as you know, & hoping you get better help this time. Sending gentle hugs, x
