Should I go to the hospital
I’m feeling so low. It’s making think of bad things. Would going to the hospital be helpful? I’m in the UK and not sure what to do

Your best bet is to contact a charity like CALM or mind and to speak to someone on the chat line. If things are getting bad phone your local crisis number or dial 999. When you go hospital they’ll ask you if you want to voluntarily section yourself but only if they believe your high risk enough. You need to book an appointment with your GP even if it’s next year because you can’t get access to mental health services without them referring you.
I don’t know where in the Uk you are but nhs should have a mental health team where you are with a crisis line, you can self refer or phone 111 and they should be able to refer you
If you're feeling suicidal and have a plan to act, a hospital is the best. Call NHS 111 (for when you need help but are not in immediate danger) Contact your GP and ask for an emergency appointment. Contact the Samaritans (details below) Use the 'Shout' crisis text line - text SHOUT to 85258. Finally, it helps to do ERP for SO-OCD. Here are some providers in the UK: https://www.ocduk.org/overcoming-ocd/accessing-ocd-treatment/accessing-ocd-treatment-privately/finding-a-private-therapist/
My anxiety is so bad right now should I go to the ER ?
For the past 4 days I’ve been waking up severally depressed and feeling unemotional. I feel weak and my head hurts so much, the past week I was struggling and crying all day due to intrusive thoughts. I cant even fight them now, I know I won’t do anything but I used anxiety as my safety barrier. Now that it’s not there it feels like something terrible will happen. I overall do not feel okay and I’m scared to go to the hospital due to being hospitalized since I have suicidal intrusive thoughts. I just turned 17 and I’m scared but my therapy starts tomorrow. I just feel so weak and depressed I can barley think right since I just woke up
I’ve had some seriously disturbing images going through my brain. Im debating on admitting myself. The thoughts are so traumatizing I can’t stop crying I don’t know what to do
