I went to the doctor yesterday to tell him about my depression/anxiety and he didn't ask me anything or want to hear any symptoms or anything he just gave me a phone number to a mental health place, is this normal?

Last year the doctor just said I was depressed then gave me a number for a mental health place. Put me off so I never phoned or went back.

Phone it, I wish I did.

What sort of mental health place?
Happy birthday Poncho! :smile:
Been kept really busy today, think it's actually helped my mood. Either that or my increased dose is finally having an effect that's good. Got up before 10am (with assistance) and sent lots of important emails, went to my lecture, handed in a very important form. Cooked actual food , and now going to work :eep:

Well done hun!

So far today, I made myself some lunch which wasn't instant noodles (OK, so PART of it was instant noodles :getmecoat: ) :king1:

I'm having a PJ day and will do some reading eventually. I said I'd start working after lunch. Then at 1pm. Then 1.30pm. Then 2pm :colondollar:
And Riku, I can identify with both those things, though I don't think it's wise to have further discussion about the second one on here, lest we trigger anyone accidentally! PM me if you want. I'll be reading but should be here on and off :yes:

There's alot of essay writing at A Level but the concepts aren't too difficult :smile: Degree level is a whole different story. I'm basically learning latin as I read more about the brain :tongue: I have no idea either but that's exactly a bad thing :redface: :lol:
Ah, alright. I regret taking Economics really, no wonder I dropped out when there's more interesting career avenues for me in support work/counselling/sports media, instead of being like a banker lol. Ooh do you have to latin, is there like certain terms that you have to use? Haha, you must have some "macho" influences though :tongue:

Nope, I don't have schizophrenia: I have schizoaffective disorder :tongue: It's a related but entirely separate condition.

E is someone who I was in an abusive relationship with (for lack of a better term) at uni. Sorry, I forgot that not everyone here would know what/who I meant by E :colondollar:

My friends let me down coz it was kinda public knowledge that I was being abused and no one really thought to do anything :erm:
My apologies :redface: Anyway I hope your condition improves :smile: Ah, ok thanks for that & that's not very nice, they should have been supportive, even if they were a bit busy with their own lives as that's what friends are for :erm:

No worries. I'd never heard of it before I was diagnosed :o: Thanks very much! Hope you're having a good day :h:

Yes to the first one, no to the second. I do agree with TLG about the second one though, don't really want to trigger anyone so probably best to keep to PM :redface:

I just had to read that several times before I realised you said 'what' was in the oven not 'who'- was thinking 'what on earth is Wolfie doing to those mice?' :lolwut:

Edit: On second thoughts, they'd be 'what' too.... I think my brain went on strike :facepalm:

I have experience of both of those, the second one not any more but when I had my first big mental health blip when I was 15 I did and it really scared me. It's not something I like to talk about :frown:
