Hi mate look at this website
Www.insighthealthcare.org
See whether you can do that? I applied last week and got a call within24 hours but because I'm seeing a psychiatrist and I'm doing private therapy they can't take me on

Based in Kent mate I do private at£45 I thought they could strange face to face? Telephony may help the ball rolling? I've done both

Sorry you're having to wait so long Bigboy. You've worked hard trying to make contacts and arrange meet-ups on here and therapy is something that shouldn't be a luxury in a "developed" country such as our own. Do you take any meds? Might help take edge off anxiety and improve mood in meantime...

Hey Thanks KK Appreciate your comments I certainly have, and it shouldn't be allowed to take that long the actual process is very tedious at times and many hurdles have to be jumped what with ignorant Gp's which I think should be given more training on MH conditions as I personally know what it's like trying to get help and I am not the only one to say that either. Used to be on meds don't think I want to really go back on them though. Once again thanks Cheers
When I was in this process my provider said 3 months. Sadly I've heard that many times. Some are far longer though, some still over 12 months which defeats the reason IAPT was even introduced.
I agree with you, Dave, waiting was hell. Sadly until the NHS catches up for mental health it's something we are stuck enduring.

I had an assessment yesterday and was told the waiting time in my area is 6-8 months!
