ER visit

[kw41716]

went to the er last night . they didn’t say a word just told me to see my psych doctor again , the one who gave me more meds . so why ask for help when i can’t get it ?

Do they know you have been abusing your medications? And what medications you have abused?

[kw41716 in reply to Hidden]

yes they know , pain killers and anti depressants

[Hidden in reply to kw41716]

Seems so odd they are so dismissive it's rather worrying. Do you have a therapist / counsellor separate to your psych?

[kw41716 in reply to Hidden]

yes i go friday to my counselor

[Hidden in reply to kw41716]

Ok that's one thing, please please don't over do your medications it's so dangerous and I worry

[kw41716 in reply to Hidden]

thank you for being concerned , that’s very appreciative of you ! but i try my hardest not to get into the meds when i have a bad day

[Hidden in reply to kw41716]

It's ok I will be honest I have been there before myself it isn't a good place to be. Please look after yourself and if you need to talk or vent because you are tempted to over dose come on here and talk to us
