Can't see a Light at the end of the Tunnel PDF Print E-mail

I have been waiting to see a psychiatrist now for months. The letter came today 3 in the afternoon and the appointment was for 10 this morning. I am so pissed off, I really need to see him as my head is in a dark place. Nothing seems to be going right. I feel to numb to cry or I would. My boy is going through a hard time, he is still in bed with the blues. This country is falling apart at the seams. Money is getting tight, jobs are going in the thousands, men are cracking up and killing their own families and then themselves.

 

My life have changed so much and now I am ill. I don't want to do anything but stay in, eat chocolate and smoke. I got no job, the government wants to cut my benefits. Life sucks in Britain. Why people want to come here beggars belief. Now that conservatives are in people like me will pay for bankers mistakes. While they live it up, we the poor struggle to make ends meet.Why was I born in such a state of poverty. Being ill doesn't help and things will only get worse with the governments cuts. Wales budget is being cut by half. NHS hospitals are not coping either. Life is a drag .I am not being fair to my self really but I can't see a light at the end of the tunnel at all. How long will this last I wonder? I need to pour my heart out on here hoping to find some kind of peace. My back aches, I feel sick. I wake with dread in my heart and don't know what to do with myself. Aaargh HELP ME PLEASE.

light-end-of-tunnelI too have thought of suicide as I can't see any light at the end of the tunnel. Oh god, I want to scream. I know I have made my life like this but how do I change to make life more happy for me and my son? No work, no money, my health is deteriorating. I can't be bothered with life the way it is. Am I so thick that I can't live life the way it should be lived. My mate has got it all, nice women, nice well paid job, travels a lot, got all the mod cons and I am the opposite. I know I am whining but for too long now my life has been crap. I am meditating that is one good thing that is helping me cope at the moment. My son smokes pot, that is better than him drinking like his friends do all day. What can I do to get free from poverty. I have no bank account now thanks to being £7.50 in debt with my bank and they took £40 odd off me in charges. The only people that will be surviving is bankers as they suck the wealth out of people. They live to rip people off. If I could I would smack one silly.

Don't know how things work for the british national health service 'cause I live in the states. But on my plan, if you're just a fairly simple case of depression, a psychiatrist is the worst way to go. They're competent all right, but getting an appointment with one is a bear. If I made an appointment now it would be in like next August, I kid you not. The psychiatrists are all busy with the truly bad cases, people who are violent or suicidal or whatever.

But if I just go get an appointment with a regular general practioner, he can do the diagnosis and get me on meds in just a few days. It was much better. See if somebody else can get you started faster, the meds are cheap and you don't necessarily need a full psychiatric specialist. Hell, go to the gray market if you have to, just be careful of side interactions if you're on any other meds. But try to find somebody who'll get it done now.
