and they have told me they are discussing me tomorrow and making a decision about what help they can offer me. The admin lady I spoke to said I will be seeing an intensive CBT therapist and probably a counsellor in addition.

Just the thought of all this scares me.

Hello Trapped.. I still have another 10 months on the waiting list for CBT so turn that fear into excitement if you can. You now know that your road to recovery is on its way :) x

Good luck with your CBT, Trapped! :) I have found CBT really helpful.

over a week later and no contact, NOT a good start. Why promise to call and not do. Looks like they will be as hopeless with me as they are with my son.

That doesn't sound too good. If you don't hear from them within the next couple of days, maybe you could try calling them to see what's happening?

Hi

Do not be anxious about the CBT its really good i did mine via a computer based course with 9 booklets to accompany it with a weekly telephone support call.

Also counselling can be good as it forces you to confront things in a positive way and to be open about your feelings.

I know certain mental health areas have problems with huge demand,but i would definately contact them and give them a very gentle nudge.:)
