I'm kinda worried about myself and my safety. I hope that doesn't sound too weird. I'm afraid to tell my therapist what's going on because I'm afraid she'll freak out and over-react. I know my psychiatrist well enough to know that she won't if I tell her cuz I've worked with her for 6+ years. Then again, when I told my therapist I self-injured she didn't freak out. I'm really not sure what I should do.
I've thought about hospitalization but I don't think I need that, at least not right now. I know I'm not stable though. I'm struggling a lot with attachment issues, mood fluctuations, self-injury, suicidal ideation, abandonment issues and feeling impulsive. I'm really messed up right now.
I've thought about talking to my psychiatrist on Wednesday (this week) about getting put on mood stabilizers to help avoid me needing to be hospitalized but then again I believe I should be able to manage these symptoms on my own without the help of medication. I have a lot of resilience.
I felt like emailing my therapist a suicide note as a way of asking for help but I know that it's not the most mature way to ask for help. It would be more mature and responsible to tell her directly that I'm struggling and that I need help when I meet with her this week.
I feel so tormented, frustrated, confused and alone. Can someone plz give me some guidance as to what I should do? What would you do if you were me?
