Can I have a private post please ?
Sorry, this post is not baby related but I find it hard to open up, and when I do it is never taken seriously.
Since the age of 16, I have been suffering from depression and anxiety but it has never been properly diagnosed. Many times I have visited the doctor, but it has never been taken seriously and today, I’m feeling worse than ever, everyday can be a struggle and I simply want it to stop.
I wake up early hours in the morning with my stomach in knots and my thoughts racing everything is a constant worry and I question myself a lot and what others think of me.
It’s something I have been able to accept, but I really need professional help. For years I have tried to get to the bottom of my feelings. The last time I went to see a doctor, I was told to “hurry up” as she didn’t have enough time for me. I left in tears, frustrated as ever …
What can I do or say? I need someone to take time and listen to me. I have a little girl and I want to be a strong mother for her but everyday is a struggle 😥
Any advice welcome. Thank you .

You can self refer for counselling now- my doctor told me- n I did it. They make an apt to do a telephone assessment over the phone then they help make a decision on which way would be most beneficial to u. I’m now in psychotherapy…. if u ring ur docs n ask what ur local mental health ppl r called u can get the number xxx
You can refer yourself to outlook southwest for counselling and I think go to your gp and say you need some tablets. I use anti depressants and they really help with my anxiety. You don’t have to suffer alone! I know you feel like your the only one in the world going through it but there is support out there x
Speak to your gp about referring you to counselling x
