Sometimes just typing it out and venting is what's needed.
It's never nice when you're going through crap times but you do come through them.
Nothing wrong in having a meh moment.
I haven't got wonderful advice to share with you, that will come from the other people's posts as they are an awesome bunch of peeps who will lift your spirits in no time at all.
Just take care of yourself

Better to let it out then eat you up inside. Everyone’s entitled to do so. Sometimes just saying (or in this case typing) and sharing it is all you need to make you feel better. Hope you feel more positive soon. Sending hugs xx |

A life without emotions and feelings would be horrendous, but it's also not good when you're feeling the way you are.
Keep taking a day at a time. Life will get better.
Have a big cuddle with your husband and try and have a good night's sleep.
Hope you feel a little brighter soon. |

I get it some days it feels that no matter what you do someone or something s going to bring you down. People will day it’ll get better or someone has it worse....does that make a difference to you in that moment? No cause it is crappy and sucks.
Here’s to hoping that round the corner things will get easier even if just for a while.xx |

"Feeling better today Queenie?"
Wish I was
Wee sister tried to commit suicide, my PND is in the shitter, my parents are woefully ignorant to mental health issues and when I asked my mum for support I got ‘I’m not a psychiatrist I can’t support you’. I told her ‘you’re a mum, you could at least try’ and she’s not speaking to me. Her and my dad love us, they just have never had to deal with anything like this before and don’t know how to...
My little sister has had a chat with her though and my mum is trying hard to support her, as is my dad. They’re in way over their head, I was hoping to try and help educate them but mums not speaking to me. Ah well |

Is your sister with the local crisis team? Are they any good? |

She had a head injury when it happened so she was taken to hospital, checked over and monitored then moved to the psychiatric ward. They’re assessing her for a personality disorder, most likely split personality disorder. She’s back home, she’s staying with my mum and dad at the moment (she’s 16) |

Speaking from experience GP’s are too overwhelmed and not equipped to deal with people with psychiatric or mental problems. As your sister is 16 she needs to be referred to the local CAMHS team ASAP.
As unfortunately she has already attempted self harm she should be treated as a priority, however like most health service departments they are inundated and over worked trying to deal with all the cases on their workloads so you must ensure that your sister doesn’t get lost in the masses, find a contact within the CAMHS team and keep phoning and contacting them until she is assessed and put in a treatment program.
Good Luck |

Update; dad told my sister to stop googling stuff, there’s nothing wrong with her and it’s probably lockdown making her feel shit. My sisters told my mum that if my dad can’t take responsibility for things he’s done, she doesn’t want him being involved at all.
And I sent a very huge text message into the family group chat, telling them exactly how we all feel. I had wrote a lovely one last night, but fuck it. This one was rough |

If your dad has that attitude and your mum sounds like she is struggling it may be best to get your sister away from their negativity. Could see stay with another member of your family? One who is less judgemental and more sympathetic? |

I’m so sorry lovely, this is so awful for you.
Your sister is lucky to have you fighting her corner, but make sure you’re looking after yourself too.
Sending you massive hugs xx

She can come stay with me, or my granny and grandads. Don’t know what she wants to do (she’s currently at the beach with her friends and her family)
She spoke to the GP today and she’s going in to the GP on Monday for a face to face appointment |

I hope you don’t mind my comments but in my experience your sister my be feeling confused and guilty about what she did and may not relate how she truly feels when she sees her GP. I would suggest you try and talk with her and gauge her true feelings and intentions prior to her seeing the doctor, than offer to go with her to the appointment for morale support, that way you can encourage her to be honest and open with the doctor, otherwise she may play down her true feelings. |

Excellent advice right there QL. People who are potentially suicidal are very good at hiding their true feelings.
Hope things improve for you all RQ x |

You are going through a very tough time and it's difficult and sad that your parents aren't able to offer much support so make sure you get support elsewhere, I'm sure your hubby is helping and hopefully other family and friends are too. Keep in touch with your local MH team and hopefully they are being supportive too.
Plus look after yourself, do things you enjoy, spend lots of time with your baby, do fun things as a family, have relaxing time for you, work out what makes you happy and give yourself time to do that.
I have serious MH issues, i also have awful problems with part of my family but I've learnt to step back a bit and look after myself, i love music, reading, watching sport and i make sure i have time to enjoy them. Also (this really shows my age) i love sitting in my garden, listening to the sounds of my neighbours, children playing, lawn mowers, birds etc, it calms me, makes me feel happy.
I hope things look better for you soon x |

Its so hard isn't it.. I hope you can reach her
O e of my friends has attempted suicide twice this year... I'm terrified to leave her on her own.. We've taken all the knives out of the house. She now has 1:1 counsellor that she can call anytime, GP and mental health nurse. Every day I'm frightened that this could be it and i should have done more to support her.
One thing i do know is that to help others, you've really got to take care of yourself and build your resillience, because you drain your resources really fast.
Wishing you all the best x |

God I feel for you, I really do
My sister is 16, works 50+ hours a week and she lives in a flat with one of her friends, who she works with as well. Her and another work friend found my sister, phoned the ambulance etc.
They have a wee outhouse and they hid anything that could be a danger, including the kettle. My sister got home from hospital at 5am and wanted toast and a cup of tea but obviously couldn’t. The fact they hid the kettle made me smile
