Night Shift

Re: Night Shift

@Former-Member  feel free to ask me questions about NDIS if you want.  I've done so much reading about it and am in social media groups about it so I have gathered quite a lot of information over the last 4 months.  Even tho it's frustrating me I do think it's worth persevering, jumping through the hoops,  and would encourage you to try.  What things do you need help with?  Have you looked at the NDIS price list?  It's a good way to see what is possible and also helps work out your needs and goals.

 

 

Re: Night Shift

What is NDIS?

Re: Night Shift

@outlander  Your mother doesn't have the right to deny you treatment if you are 20.  But I understand if you live at home it must be very difficult to get treatment independently.  Feel for you.  

NDIS is the National Disability Insurance Scheme.  If you google it there is a ton of information available.  There is also a "Q&A Info Session//Ask your NDIS questions here!" thread on these forums.  I'll go to that page and tag you so you can see it.

Oh no @outlander, that's awful!  Smiley Sad Not to mention dangerous. Apart from not having that support, stopping meds cold turkey can be scary. Do you have anyone else who can help you? Are you able to contact your psychiatrist and explain what is happening? Or a GP or something? Even psych triage at your local hospital? I'm so sorry you're in that situation. Smiley Sad

Re: Night Shift

Yeah i know. Tell me about it @eth shes a bi**ch
She threw all of my anti depressents and anti psychotic and sleeping tablets and anti nausea tablets out and yelled at me saying i dont need them and what i have isnt real and i only think (ive been diagnosed) i have it because the *stupid _ her words the stupid psychitrist is just being a money hogger and not helping me

Re: Night Shift

Oh ive never heard of it @eth sure ill take a read of it

Re: Night Shift

@outlander try to see a Dr as soon as you can and tell them what your mother has done.  I think it's abusive and probably not legal for her to deny you treatment.  You are over the age of consent.

@Former-Member
Besides health professionals i do t have anyone. Its a pretty lonley life only talking to mental health people.
I see my gp twice a week and a psychologist every week
I wont be seeing my psychiatrist i dont think. I wasnt happy with the last session i went to and its awkward now because she rang my mother and disclosed things i said not to abd has made my situation even worse now

Re: Night Shift

Im stuck cause if i dont tell them i have been taking them and they find them ill be in deep doodoo and if i take them home and they find them thwy will throw them out
