Trapped in supported accommodation

I have various people on my team supposedly helping through my depression, and other issues I have. They requested I go into a care facility for a one month stay. Which I agreed to fully expecting to return home about one month after. As soon as I mover in to the place there attitudes changed. All of a sudden I had to stay in the supported accommodation. Because I was not going to be supported in my home. Even though the support I need is available from various agencies. Around Melbourne by various counsels or privet agencies. Providing attendant care and home help. I believe I should be eligible for funding for disability. I have raised this with the people who are my advisers. But get caned every time I am not consulted. About the decision I am told just sit back do as we say. When your ready we will help more then. The plan i am not consulted on it's not working it's just stagnating. My family are no help. I am that fed up where I am. I am rely contemplating ending it all my life has no meaning in here. Just a worthless piece of meat that gets treated like a 3 year old. I know a warehouse full of stuff. That no one can now use. I cannot help anyone in here not even myself I'm not aloud.

The psych is pretty well switched on we have chatted and she has been made aware of my misgivings. But it still puts my nerves on edge. I just want to get home. So if I need a doctor I get one, If I need medication I get it on time

When I did PCA work I did it with dignity. and gave my clients dignity. I did it without fan fair unless required . If I had to raise the roof it was then when finished I would ask if that was high enough if not it would get raised higher. Some times the organize would have to ask me to slow it down because I was getting dangerous. But that was then this is now. No more fast cars, or even faster women.

Dear Kanga~
I'm so pleased about the lump, until it was identified it would have been a big worry on your shoulders

Well I was not stressing about it at all the in emergency dep doctor was more stressed than I was. I am beyond most of it now. I have made good with the people I have to. I have said what I have had to say to them I have made good. My path is clear Still have to get more people to smile so there is purpose left for me. Even after one of my mentors has now gone to the great stage and movie screen the director called him up for a command performance. with his old mate Dean bye Jerry make them laugh you old fart.
