    What help do u get?

    Hiya all

    I was just wondering what help people get, who they get it from, if they pay for it and how long they have had to wait for it.
    Many thanks

    Hi Blackie

    Over the last 8 years i have had councilling, phsyciatric Care,,Community Care, Anxiety management,Occupational Therapy and CBT through the NHS, i have also had Hypnotherapy which i paid for myself.

    I dont think i could have got to where i am today without all the help i have had from the services i have used and also support from this site, im very greatful that where i live i havent had to wait months for appointments.

    Love

    In the beginning I had to wait ages for any help. After visits to my GP, she finally referred me for specialist help in the May and I began to get that the following February!

    That was an occupational therapist who I had for 6 months. That was in 2005 and I've a few more sessions with her this year too.

    I'm paying out for psychotherapy and I've been regularly for well over two years now.

    Take Care

    Hi Blackie,

    I've had psycologists, and a psycotherapist both did CBT with me, but currently I have an occupational therapist and a home support worker who takes me out usually once a week.

    All therapy has been through the NHS, although the home support service is social services. I was referred to that service by the NHS.
