Got referred by my gp for talking therapies. Had to wait for this appointment on the phone for 16 weeks! Had a phone call and then had to wait over a week for someone to get back to me to then be told that them and their supervisor felt like that couldn’t help me. I feel like they didn’t listen to me properly and that they are just passing on the problem. Sometimes we know the reasons as to why we feel the way we do, but just because we know the reasons doesn’t mean we want to be referred elsewhere. You say you want to support people with anxiety, depression and other mental health issues, but obviously you don’t. I have depression and anxiety and I feel like I was not listened to properly at all.
