July 10th, 2009, 01:34 AM
today..
i decided to discharge myself.
from everything.
the hospital, the inpatient treatment centre.
because i am 18 and i control my medical decisions.

this isn't working for me, being in here.

i am going to go live with my older brother who lives in america for a while.
and i am going to try and get better over there.
because it clearly isn't working over here.

and then once i am better, i am going to come back home, and live with Coop.
and things are gonna be soo good again.

Do what you need to do. Only you know whats best for yourself. I hope you can get the help you need. I hope that when I turn 18, I'll be able to get help too. :)

Lol ok so, after being found unconscious, surrounded by broken glass, blood, vomit, with a wound near your wrist and sleeping pills scattered around the place you are put into suicide watch.

THEN you decide to discharge yourself from it (sort of defeats the purpose, being put on suicide watch but being allowed to leave at any time lol).

But by all means, dont stop, I wanna hear what else happens! :D

You shouldn't go back to your abusive boyfriend, it wont get better, it will get worse. Unless ofcourse he changed. But if he hasn't everything will just be downhill.

I disagree with that statement also. Highly.

Things don't work unless you try to make them work. You need to put in the effort try your hardest to make sure you get better.

Good luck in America, just don't go back to old tendancies.

Well then correct me so I can see where I'm wrong. I'm not trying to be rude. I just thought that if someone understands that they're behavior and way of thinking is wrong, then they have the sense to know what they need to do to help change it and better themselves.

Oftentimes people don't know what's best for them.
If someone with an eating disorder, for example, knew what was best for themselves then they wouldn't be in that situation in the first place because they would have known how to address their eating before it became such a serious problem. They would also take opportunities to get better seriously and not resist the ones offered to them.

Hmm...I'm still wondering why the doctors just let you walk out of there...

Think about the money that Cooper has supposedly spent on this inpatient treatment centre. You are letting it all go to waste. It is a lot and you are wasting it. If you want to get better then do it here. That way he can see that his money is being put to good use and isn't just being wasted by his neurotic girlfriend who decided that he wasn't enough for her to want to get better.

How are you paying for your plane ticket btw?

I completly agree with this. Especially the last question on the plane ticket.
I'm sorry, I haven't been very up-to-date with whats been going on, but I have been reading a few of you're threads. There just seems to be one problem after another.
Write down a list of all the problems in you're life that you want to fix. Then gradually, work down the list to fix each of them. However much time it takes. You have you're whole life ahead of you.

the doctors don't have control of me.
they gave me a massive speech about how it is in my best intrest to stay here and get help.
but they aren't helping me.
they put me on frickin suicide watch!!!

my big brother is paying for it.
i am going to stay with him over there. (he lives with his kid and wife)
and i am going to get better.

i see how much i am hurting coop, and it kills me.
that's why i want to do this away from him.
because i can't bare to see him hurting any more.

Suicide watch was the least of your worries.

In reality, the doctors would have sectioned someone like you - not just let them waltz out the door.

sienna.
July 14th, 2009, 03:07 AM
they didn't just let me watlz out the door.
but it's my life, and my decision.
not there's.

in the end, i do what i want!

suicide watch is the leat of my worries!!
what do i have to worry about then??

Sapphire
July 14th, 2009, 03:21 AM
You've missed my point.
Someone in your situation would have been sectioned at least once throughout this sob-story.
The most recent point this would have happened would have been around the time you posted this.

sienna.
July 14th, 2009, 03:29 AM
what do you mean by sectioned?

me discharging myself isn't that dufficult to understand.

Sapphire
July 14th, 2009, 03:34 AM
You really think we're stupid, don't you?

Discharging yourself from an inpatient treatment center for eating disorders before you are even partially recovered and after a few days supposedly on suicide watch is bound to be difficult.

You would have been sectioned if this were all actually happening.

And the fact that you don't know what being sectioned is is proof that this is all a load of bull.

sienna.
July 14th, 2009, 03:38 AM
i didn't say it wasn't dufficult.

yes i wasn't in there for like a month!!
but i was in there for more then a week.

and when i was on suicide watch i was placed in a room.

then after they took me off suicide watch, i decided that i wanted to discharge myself.
yes i took alot of energy, a lot of talking and a lot of arguing.
but i am 18, and i volentarily went in there, therefore i can volentrailly leave.
i am incharge of my own medical decisions.

the doctors don't own me, they cannot tell me what to do!!
they can't force me to stay, and i don't know why you don't understand that!

Sapphire
July 14th, 2009, 03:44 AM
Lol, that is proof that you really are not granting any of us with any relevant knowledge.

Yes, they can force you to stay involuntarily.
They can even force you to undergo different therapies.
With you being so unstable, not even partially recovered and having been on suicide watch they would not let you leave voluntarily.

sienna.
July 14th, 2009, 03:47 AM
see, i'm sorry.

but you don't know. it didn't happen to you.
it happened to me!

i'm not lying, but think what you want.

Sapphire
July 14th, 2009, 03:54 AM
Lol. Sienna, post whatever you want if it makes you feel better.

But, rest assured the staff at an inpatient treatment center would not let someone in your condition discharge themselves.

sienna.
July 14th, 2009, 03:55 AM
well you are wrong.
each inpatient treatment centre is different.
and each country is different.

but i discharged myself.

i completely agree with Sienna Tbh, She has been on Suicide watch for some time now, and as she went in volentarily i agree that when she feels ready she can leave, and if she feels ready, then why shouldn't she leave? is obvious that suicide watch isn't the thing for her and i think that her herself knows whats best for her, also shes right, no one knows what shes been through accept from her, and if she wants to move with her brother to get better then good for you babee.

i really hope it goes well for you, but i think everyone else should maybe cut her some slack, shes trying to get better so i think we should let her, not trying to be rude by saying this:D

good luck tell us how it goes !! xxx

Yes she can make her own decisions and choices for herself but that most certainly doesn't mean that she KNOWS what's best for her.

She has got herself tangled up in such a mess in this story of hers, and it's evident she isn't exactly capable of looking after herself properly without professional help, judging from all of her previous posts during her time here.

Tbh, it won't be long until she posts another thread crying for help because of some other drama that has happened...

I apologize if this post comes across as insensitive and rude but this is all just ridiculous. You are basically abusing the fact that when help is being offered you just throw it away and ruin your chances of recovering properly, when you are at your most desperate.

good luck tell us how it goes !! xxxShe has supposedly been in an inpatient treatment center for eating disorders and then while she was there she was put on suicide watch for approximately 3 days, I think.
(I believe that normally people are actually transferred from centers like that to a special suicide prevention unit but I'll let that bit slide.)

And whether you like to acknowledge it or not, people with mental health problems often don't know what is best for them.
If a girl with an ED knew what was best for herself then she would seek help, cooperate with the professionals and work towards recovering. She wouldn't refuse feeding tubes, make herself throw up, smash mirrors, lock herself in bathrooms so she can get every last bit of food out of her and so on.

I honestly don't care if you think she should be allowed to voluntarily leave. In reality the doctors wouldn't have let her leave and they would have sectioned her. If any of her story is to be believed (which I severely doubt) then she is a danger to herself and the Mental Health Act is in place for this exact reason.

But the fact that she didn't know about the ability for doctors to hold her against her will just further illustrates that she is lying and trying to take us all for a ride.

So to get the story straight:

After being found unconscious, surrounded by broken glass, blood, vomit, with a wound near your wrist and sleeping pills scattered around the place you are put into suicide watch.

(You were allowed your phone in suicide watch? lol sounds like a very leniant institute youre in! almost as if they dont care. . .)

And now the doctors have apparently taken you off suicide watch, (because waking up in blood, vomit and broken glass is normal? safe? not threatenig to yourself? :D)
Why where you taken off? lol (if you wanting to get better results in all of the above, what would you be like if you DIDNT want to get better :P )

running off to america wont change a damn thing, instead of your loverboy being hurt, this time itll be your brother, his wife AND his child - but hey, thats a fair trade now isnt it? as long as you get better suuuuuure drag MORE people into it! the more the merrier!!!

Back to this "inpatient treatment center", upon finding you - all unconscious n covered in puke n blood n glass on the floor with sleeping pills suspiciously laid out on the floor - you werent taken to a HOSPITAL for treatment? or were you and they just brought you back and THEN you were put on s. watch?

or maybe this VOLUNTARY treatment centre is more than capable enough to treat you after your funky night, but CANT hold you against your will under the mental health act? (which is enforced in the UK, America, and a shitloada other countries. . . .so where are you where this law doesnt apply? the artic circle?)

I think theres a word that can sum this all up.............begins with B.........and ends with OLLOCKS!!!! hehehe

July 15th, 2009, 09:54 AM
You haven't let them help you! That's why you haven't got better.
How many times did you fight them when they tried putting the feeding tubes in?!

Where you are has nothing to do with this. Your attitude towards recovery is what will change things.

July 15th, 2009, 01:45 PM

alright everyone thinks im wrong but think about it, her brother obviously wants to help so why not let him? maybe being away for a while around her family will help?

and i know that the doctors can make her stay, but once you are 18 she is old enough to discharge herself,
and for those here that have said she has brought everything on herself well think about it?

how many people here are self-harming, got eating disorders etc etc, i know i do and so do alot of you, but thats because you hate the way you feel about yourself, i have an eating disorder and am recovering self-harming, but both of these is because i hate myself. Sienna Proberally feels the same as the rest of us..

i just feel we shud all wish her luck in America and hope she gets better:) x

Sapphire
July 15th, 2009, 02:44 PM
Yes, at 18 you are able to discharge yourself.
BUT the Mental Health Act gives doctors the ability to detain someone against their wishes regardless of age if the situation calls for it. This situation would call for it.

If Sienna was truly in the situation she has so elaborately described then it is safe to say that she isn't happy with herself. However, it is also safe to say that she wouldn't be jetting off to the USA because she would have been sectioned by the staff of the treatment center.
