Today could be the day I CTB. Currently in my local Rural hospital because my work colleagues bought me here on Saturday worried. I have been trying to get the help but am constantly blocked. Have been on meds, seeing a psychologist, trying to do everything right. Have had the suicide thoughts but not the intentions as such although that has been changing over the last 2 weeks. Even my cats haven't been a reason anymore to stay and they were my ONLY reason.
I have been co-operative and open on how I feel and even came very close yesterday. I have been put under the local mental health team based 45 minutes away and yesterday there was talk of transferring me to a mental health unit (I'm not in the US) But then the last thing they suggested was to go stay with family for a couple of weeks and that pissed me off. It's like putting a band aid over a stab wound. It is pointless. I decided then that if I don't get the help I need and have been screaming for, then I will follow through with my plans.
I have a couple Of plans depending on how much time I will have to complete them. Always good to have contingency plans. And I am at peace with my decision. I cannot make it any clearer to my team that I want help. I have tried all I can and if they cannot hear me, then that is it. I'm tired of trying and tired of being the only one fighting for me.
So I will know by 10am what is going to happen and whether I CTB today. I am happy with either option and to be honest have now started hoping they don't listen and that I CAN CTB to just have this all over. But I have also always said I will take the help if it is offered, just so I can say that I have tried.
