Just went to A&E to be sectioned

[Noworryjonny]

Hi guys I know recently everyone has been fed up with me moaning about my back and I've been having thoughts of ending my life, so I went straight to a and e to section myself, they haven't done it but hey have given my diazepam, and also I talked to someone about my fear of AS, they told me it's not even that bad of a disease and that if i do get it I can live a normal life and with medication and exercise I won't feel that bad.
My apologies to anyone I've annoyed on my posts

I did the same thing as you three nights in a row last year. I was assessed each time, and given diazepam. Then I was sent home. Each time, the reassurance that I wasn't going crazy lasted long enough for me to get some sleep, but then I returned the following night. I thought something terrible was happening to me psychologically. In my case, I was just getting started on an SSRI, which I think contributed to how I was feeling.

In any case, there's no chance of being sectioned unless you're in the throes of a major crisis, or you're seriously mentally ill. The team told me that I really didn't want to be sectioned, and that it stood a high chance of making me worse. They were right. It wasn't what I needed. I needed to give my SSRI time to work, and I needed therapy.

I'm sorry things got to be so bad for you jonny. I've replied on one or two of your threads and you haven't annoyed anybody. I hope you get the help you need.

Be well

I'm sorry things are rough for you right now. I hope you can get some peace of mind!

I was inpatient for anxiety in 2013 and it was the best thing for me at the time

Hey Jonny,

I tried that multiple times. A&E wouldn't section me. I did get sectioned but I also nearly got charged with a crime at the same time. Was lucky I wasn't. I've been in your shoes mate. This will pass.

Keep positive

I hope it does I've never been this bad this whole ankylosing spondylitis fear has spiralled me out of control when if I actually researched it properly it's not even that bad and with medication and that I can control it and live a normal life

Your doctor said you didn't have it so why worry about it?

"I was terrified it was ankylosing spondylitis but docs said it's just because I'm 6ft 2 and work a desk job and my stress and anxiety has made it worse and it will go eventually but will take time"
