She said that the course they run at CMHT is recommended by NICE and very effective at preventing anxiety and depression coming back in people who have suffered multiple relapses as I have. She’s given me some stuff to read and so far it sounds very interesting.

just in case anyone is reading this and is interested here’s the link to the website she gave me
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mindful-Way...s%2C147&sr=8-1
and this this the book recommendation, the first few pages sound amazingly like me
That's a very positive attitude, Jo, and I hope this therapy helps. Mindfulness acts to "reset" our chattering and catastrophising minds but requires practice, persistence and determination.
Sure you will do well
