what else can i actually do to get some help? please read

I need advice/support

i’m currently in extreme need of support and my medication increasing, but i’m struggling so hard to get any help. i’ll just put a quick timeline of events:

  • diagnosed in 2023 in wales with eupd and cptsd, started on aripiprazole and buspirone
  • moved back to england, stable ish until recently, lost in the system and haven’t seen the psychiatrist who currently prescribes my medication once since being in england
  • went to the GP for help who said they’d get a mental health nurse to see me in 2 weeks
  • 3 weeks later with no contact, i chased up with my GP who said he would look into it
  • that was three weeks ago again and i’ve heard nothing
  • took a mild overdose as a way to SH a week ago, paramedics took me to hospital
  • hospital mental health liaison team said they’d refer me to CMHT
  • heard nothing back and my GP app said no referrals, so i rang 111 for advice last night
  • 111 said no referral had been made. they said they’d make the referral themselves and also said they’d refer me to the local distress intervention team who would ring me today
  • it’s now 6pm and no one has called

i am feeling increasingly hopeless and deflated. i’ve begged for help and been let down at every turn. they know i have suicidal thoughts, they should know my history of serious attempts and hospitalisations, why is no one helping me?

i guess ill try my GP again tomorrow, but if that doesn’t work and i don’t hear anything from anyone i honestly don’t know what to do. my mood flips so suddenly and i don’t trust myself at the moment, and it’s getting worse
