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.
