    There is lots of information on the website about the meds and also under the medication catagory.

    Its also not just about medication but also about some talking therapy such as CBT

    Hi Jackie

    Being prescribed medication is nothing to be ashamed of and it can help some people to feel able to deal with therapy.

    Perhaps you could also ask your doctor for a referral for CBT to help you make the long term changes to recover.

    Hi Jackie

    Just like Karen says it is nothing to be ashamed of. If you had diabetes i bet you wouldnt question having to take insulin. If they help you take them hun they are there to help us get better.

    Love Sal xx
