Anxiety Support Group
Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another. However, such feelings that linger over time and are very difficult to cope with, and which lack a clear cause, may indicate...
Hi there,
This is kinda an oddball question, but when does it get to the point where I just go to the hospital and have them help me out.
I know it's only been 21 days on the meds. I am NOT suicidal, but I am obviously very uncomfortable most times of the day. Crying, chronic anxiety, I've been feeling like this for THREE + weeks.
Yesterday was a good day. I had one other good day last week. Now its back to feeling hopeless like I won't ever get better.
I have a friend who went to Good Samaritan where they keep you 72 hrs. group therapy, watch over you, etc.... I know this might seem pretty extreme right now, but she said it helped.

If your feeling like their is no way out.
If your really not feeling well, not sleeping or eating for what seem like days on end.
chronic anxiety.
If your hearing or seeing things.
If you feel out of control or your behaviour is unncontrolable or your a danger to others.
To me these are some of the indicators you need to be in hospital.
If your feeling like you need help, their is no harm or shame in it, sometimes it can be a real turning point in your life, the help in hospital can be very valuble, the more you put into it the more you get out of it.
If you feel like you need to go i would go, i hope you make it through this rough patch, dont struggle alone, everyone is here to supportt you.
Hugs And Feel Well Soon.

I've called up crisis teams etc feeling suicidal and been told its not a 'crisis crisis' :s
I think here they only really take you into hospital if your REALLY bad. I got admitted to hospital when I had caused a massive massive gash in my arm and my friend got admitted when she threw herself out of a taxi on a dual carriage way.
I don't think they take you in unless there is a risk to your life.
By the sounds of your issues, severe depression etc you need to go visit your gp and get them to sort you out and decide whats best. But its generally not up to you whether you go to hospital its up to medical professionals to decide.
Big Hugs!.
Here in the UK treatment for ppl with anxiety/depression is abysmal, you really have to be very bad, taken an overdose or slit your wrists before they do anything. Or if you phone for an appointment to see a ps doc, you're told they don't have enough docs and there are no appointments.
I hope you get the help you need, hugs
