Hey guys, had a little trip into work today to see the occ health nurse (I'm on leave not off sick) and I really can't believe how useless they were!
My manager refered me to see if I could get cbt any quicker as the nhs waiting list is 7 months, anyway after the nurse being 15 minutes late for my appt she eventually took me into a room and tried to convince me that I have panic attacks/anxiety because of something that happened in my childhood and after I repeatly told her no she implied that I was in a crappy relationship - neither of which is true!
The end result is that I've been refered for counselling, not cbt as they don't offer it and I have to do a well being at work assessment. If only paperwork could make me better ha ha!
I had nothing but praise for them when I broke my arm but it seems that unless it's physical they don't know how to deal with it..... I do have a load of leaflets on depression to add to the recycling pile tho!xx :blush:
