    Pleased to hear a bit of good news @cupcake88 - it does indeed sound positive, & not before time. I do hope you get an earlier meds review as this certainly seems needed. Hugs, xx

    Hi @cupcake88 - if your GP is happy to sort out your meds, then I don't see how your nurse can disagree with that.

    @chiarieds she was annoyed at the fact I rang because I was in distress well that’s what’s she’s there for I really can’t believe how 
    uncaring she is puts me off 
    contacting the services x

    That's frustrating @cupcake88, but at least your GP is on side. Is your partner around this evening?

    I'm sorry you have such am uncaring nurse @cupcake88 - but it's how you feel, not her, that matters, so try not to think about her. You keep on ringing whenever you need help, which is absolutely the right thing to do, xx

    Hi @cupcake88 it's understandable to feel scared, because of how important your wedding is to you and your partner.

    It's a really positive thing to hold on to, and I'm sure the team know that :)

    Hi cupcake 

    I really think what Chiarieds sd will definitely happen.
    Once your meds are changed and start to kick in you’ll feel much more positive.
    Trying keep your thoughts positive.

    Stay strong ❤️

    I just don’t trust my team . Yes I still have the therapy once a week just before my injection . Can they section you for no reason ?

    Hi cupcake 

    No they can’t section you for nothing, they would need a good reason like you were a danger to yourself or others.

    You are just overly worried trying relax.

    😘❤️

    I'm glad you're still having therapy @cupcake88 how are you finding that?

    And they can't section you for no reason, it will only be if they feel your own health and safety (or other people's) is at risk, and only under a section of the Mental Health Act 1983.

    Does that make sense?

    The mental health charity Mind has guidance all about sectioning, if that would be helpful to read.
