No one truly understands depression unless they’ve had it. It is nasty and they have stop smoking support! There needs to be a national NHS campaign to support depression and educate others.
I think there needs to be more support in the work place for people with depression. I also think that the NHS in Somerset needs to buck up its ideas when it comes to talking therapy. I’ve been on a waiting list for over a year and there’s not been so much as a phone call.
Same me i been waiting awhile its on joke i been throw alot .😂
The NHS in Taunton for Mental Health is a joke. Long waiting times for therapy, Drs seem fed up to see you and quickly push you back out the door. I've BPD and meds dont work for me so I struggle day in day out. I've stopped going to the Drs as they cant do nothing for me. If I'm having a bad day I suffer alone as hate making phone calls, hate asking for help and dont want people close to me know I'm struggling as dont want the attention.
Don't forget entry for our Driving Challenge is now open! Go to mindinsomerset.fullonsport.com/event/driving-challenge-and-family-fun-day-2019/profile to find out more and enter. #fundraisingisfun #mentalhealthawareness #somerset
