Did you go to the hospital alone when you were suicidal or did your family or friends get you to go?

I am afraid to go alone but my boyfriend dosen't really want me to go. He doesn't undersatnd that I just can't go on like this.

Hi luvkittykats,

the first 3 times I went, my mom took me. I was forced to go. It was after my mom found out that I was self injuring and having suicidal thoughts. I didn't really want to go, but I was underage, a danger to myself, and so I had to go. I don't think I would have been able to get myself to go alone. I understand how hard that is. I needed someone there (my mom,) to help describe to the doctors what was going on.

And the last time I was in the hospital, my boyfriend took me. I actually wanted to go that time because I felt unsafe, so I told him to take me, but I would not have been able to take myself.


Im sorry your boyfriend isn't being too supportive. Is their anyone else you know that would be willing to take you to the hospital?, like a family member?


You could always call 911 and they'd send an ambulence to come get you, but that would cost about $400 or $500 just for the ambulance :shock:
the last time I went to the hospital, I was taken to the nearest emergency room, then they had to have an ambulance take me to the psychiactric hospital which was about and hour and a half away. I had to pay about $500 for the stupid ambulance.



Good luck. Im sorry things are so rough for you right now. :(

You are lucky that youre parents forced you to go when my parents found out that I had been self harming they didnt even talk to me about it but then on the other hand my girlfriend has been really helpful and tries to make me go to hospital every time the most minor things happen. I know I should probably go and she has tried but I really cant and I hate hospitals so much. I just wish someone would force me to go. I guess thats maybe why I overdosed last week.
