Riverside adolescent unit, in Bristol. I'm the UK too. They confuse me on this site with the American brand names. I told everyone about my terrible paxil withdrawal symptoms thinking that paxil was the American name for fluxovamine. Actually it was paroxetine which I gave up with no trouble at all. Whoops.
Hello again Edward
You must be awfully young ... mind you, I imagine that you will think me really old (34), but I don`t feel any different than I did when I was in my teens (i.e. dazed and confused).
I`m at the Royal Victoria Infirmary in Newcastle-upon-Tyne. I actually live in Leeds, but this is a specialist research unit for treatment resistant depression and eating disorder sufferers. All the patients there have been several times around the block treatment-wise, and have been referred there by baffled psychiatrists. I`ve had depression on and off for as far back as I can remember, and have been in hospital 3 times prior to this admission. I completely swore never to go back into hospital after my previous admission, and had to be talked into going up to N`castle (about 200 miles away) because I didn`t want to face the same disappointment again. Which is why I`m really f***ed off about my discharge in 3 weeks` time.
There is a woman up there with me who has been referred from Somerset.
Anyway. Just thought I`d tell you.
Anna.
