serene1983 Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 hi...I went to see a counsellor at my uni today, and we talked for a bit and he seemed ok... but then he sggested that I ask my GP to refer me to the comunity mentalhealth team, which could take about 4 weeks... the thing is, he didnt offer to see me while I'm waiting for an appointement from them, he just said to come back and see him if I have any problems there.I don't think I can wait 4 weeks without talking to anyone, thats the whole reason I went there. Now my mind is telling me to carry on acting out for the next 4 weeks, until the appointement comes through..this is stupid...I feel soo tired and lethargic now..I just don't know what to do with myself...

Rael Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 can you speak to him again and mention about having someone to talk to until the appointment comes through? im guessing he doesnt want to risk starting talking about things because the mental health team could want to start with something different and he may be concerned that it will do more harm than good. it is worth asking him though if you can see him in the meantime until the mental health team can provide support.xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rael Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 hey its not about being a burden on anybody. i know when you are feeling low you feel like that but the most important thing is you getting help. sometimes you do have to push to get things you need, and its how i lost support too, i couldnt ask for it, felt bad for doing it. but they are there to help you, its not about what they want to do, its about what you want and need to do. you are definitely worthy of the helpxxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
