741-741

This is a text crisis line that I had to use this evening. They are there for anyone in crisis, for any reason.  For me, tonight I am feeling so depressed and anxious. Feels like my mental pain will never end. I just started a new med so we have yet to see how it is going to work.

I am debating changing psychiatrists. Mine when it comes to my anxiety she has said there is nothing left she can do and if it continues I need to go in patient. Ain’t happening. At all. There has to be an answer out there. I have a friend that has a dr she really likes I am going to try for at the very least a second opinion.

I just feel so lost sometimes. And I can’t be completely honest with my therapist because she can tell my psych what I say even when I don’t want anyone else to know. Some things just need to stay between a therapist and client. As long as there is no harm in the situation there shouldn’t be a problem. I am going to check out the legalities here. Surely there is some sort of privilege.

Not my therapist, but overall I am still ready for a change. The person on the other end of the crisis line, Luri, was extremely helpful. I got a new coping mechanism. If it doesn’t involve sight, close my eyes.  Focus on ONE sense. How something feel. The way the water moves over your skin. That kind of thing. Pet your dog and focus on the dog alone. I am still not sure about how sight would work but this was so helpful. Maybe it can help someone else.  REACH out if you need the help. You don’t even need to talk to anyone. Just text. And it is a 24/7 line.
