Sorry to read of your situation. You've got to look after yourself before you can look after anyone else. So glad you have a referal to a Psyc. They specialise where a GP has only a smattering of experience. (Had a GP make matters worse by prescribing the wrong drug.) I hope your daughter recovers quickly and your quality of life improves with it.

My advice is: not to follow my advice.

Please do not financially feel unable, last I checked there was no shame in simply chatting with a say Cognitive Therapist for 12 X sessions paid if needed

A GP can assign a "mental health plan' that is covered by medicare for 12 initial visits then extended as required. As @MB suggests, the services are avail, however no doubt there may be a waiting list within the public health system.

Thanks guys, means a lot
It's going 2 be a long hard slug, daughter is booked in for a Psychologists appointment on Tuesday ( I don't really want her on mends ) but I'm hoping it will control her anxiety enough for her 2 see past the self harm and thoughts of suicide. We had had another call from her school the other day where she threatened suicide again
Cheers again guys for the support here

Hi Bloodyaussie,
I'm new, literally just signed up. I'm on the tail end of an identical situation. I know yours is 10 years ago now, but I thought I'd check in and see how you're travelling.
I hope you're in a better place, but happy to talk if needed.
Regards,
Rob

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

She's on meds and doing better, still has her lows but the self cutting and threats off self harm are a lot less frequent, unfortunately a man approached her while on her walk 2 school the other morning and said something on the lines off " do you go **** high school ( she was in school uniform ) and then said he would be at the school that afternoon she didn't talk back and ran 2 school. Freaked her out and now on edge
How have you been mate? I haven't been on the forum much these days

So gut-wrenching when something like that happens and it causes a relapse.She's on meds and doing better, still has her lows but the self cutting and threats off self harm are a lot less frequent, unfortunately a man approached her while on her walk 2 school the other morning and said something on the lines off " do you go **** high school ( she was in school uniform ) and then said he would be at the school that afternoon she didn't talk back and ran 2 school.

I hope it's a quick heal this time.
Yea I've been good. Been a while since I've been here but plan to stay in touch a lot more.
How about yourself bloke. Are you keeping well?
