    Be kind to yourself @independent_. Making meaningful change in your life requires other things to fall into place too - it's not just willpower.

    @AnonymousToe thanks - I will do, but I'm just so sad because the NHS are going to discharge me because I'm refusing antidepressants as I keep saying, and that my whole life is falling apart because I can't get the right treatment I need - even my parents defend the NHS that it's my fault I'm not getting better

    Glad you're feeling safe @IainJammyboy <3

    I noticed you mentioned that the NHS lied about getting you an appointment with the early psychosis intervention team and the support they can offer you. This sounds so frustrating Iain, have they just said they can't offer you this referral anymore?

    I'm really sorry that they aren't offering you anything outside of antidepressants - you deserve to be supported with the right treatment that works for you.

    Let us know how you're feeling today <3

    @Gemma for me it usually takes days or weeks for the mental health team to do any referrals or anything I ask, but whenever my GP phones on my behalf it's always done on the same day - just getting my GP to speak on my behalf this morning too

    @IainJammyboy that's so frustrating that you have to push so hard to get the help you deserve. You should be so proud of yourself for continuing to advocate for yourself - it's not an easy thing to do.

    I hope your GP is able to make some progress - keep us updated and be kind to yourself <3

    I’m so very sorry @faolan that’s awful, please take care of yourself, grieve however you need to. I’m always around for a chat if you need one, but I know it can be really hard to talk so I’ll just leave this here. <3

    I feel like crap. And I can't sleep. But I'm in a very weirdly good mood 🙃 I don't get it

    Sometimes when Im feeling really bad, for some reason I'll be in a very good mood. Can anyone else relate to this? Or am I just weird lol

    Can't get a sick note or an advocate to not get kicked out of college, and my GP can't put in a referral to the early psychosis team despite the actual facts and the information on the NHS website that it is possible
