RE: Another way of looking at depression

(This post was last modified: August 18, 2016 at 7:28 am by robvalue.)
I just had my telephone session to determine what kind of therapy might help me this time around. The woman was very nice, and I feel a bit better already just unburdening how far I have fallen. My depression is really bad and my anxiety is through the roof. But being strong enough to seek help gave me a little boost, and I flipped the bird to anxiety and managed to do a few things this morning. (Even if one of the was falling over outside and giving everyone a good laugh.)
She will be getting back to me about what kind of help I can get. I'm hoping to do it over the phone if possible, as traveling wears me out.
I did this through self referall, my GP gave me the number.

Can you Skype? Visually reading the other person I think would be beneficial.
Best wishes.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Rob my inbox is likewise open, for you or anyone else. I'm glad to hear you are hooked up with a therapist. I hope you find it helpful. Recovery is a real thing.
