I don’t know how to find someone to talk to. I’m afraid to call one of these hotlines and come off suicidal. I need to find a psychiatrist to go to directly. The last time I tried the gave meds and sent me home. I need to figure this out.

There are a lot of charities on line to talk to people, I myself work for one. It is for people who are lonely, or depressed, one man I talk to is not able to go out. He has a carer, but he likes me to ring him once a week. We have a chat about things in general, we talk for about a half hour. He says he looks forward to me ringing.

Good evening,I hope that you are doing okay this evening. I have a few great resources that you can try that I know work very well. I know that you said that you are afraid to call the hotlines, but do you know that they also have texting and email that you can try? National Suicide Hotline: text; HOMETO7474 email: suicidepreventionlifeline.org>talktosomeonenow - Focus On The Family; email: focusonthefamily.com - Go to the talk link and they are great counselors who can help you sort through your troubles. I will be praying for you.

Hi KittyR15. What's going on?

There are places online to talk. Give this a try. There is a free chat, or paid therapy here.
