is it a alternative to therapy

Hi @ellie2000

It depends on what for and what your needs are. Your GP would be your first point of call!

Though, as you rightly identified, self-care is an important part usually alongside support offered

Would you like to expand on what you would like support with?

This would enable us to answer your question the most effective we can

Hi @ellie2000

Thanks for providing us with some more information to allow us to understand more about your situation and how you are feeling. I am sorry to hear you are having such a tough time.

I would recommend talking to your GP if you feel comfortable talking to them about how you are feeling and what you are experiencing.

Other than this, Samaritans can help. Mind and the NHS also have some self-help strategies that you might find useful. Some links for these include:

Hey @ellie2000 How are you feeling today?

Worksheets can be helpful to help you to maybe work on specific skills or some people like to have worksheets to look at when they feel they need to take a look at them. But it’s whether you feel they are helpful to you or not. What types of worksheets are they if you don’t mind me asking?

It sounds like you’re experiencing some pretty tough things at the moment, and you have done fab too share those with us!

The recourses that @Laura_tigger82 shared may also be helpful too you also, but let us know how things are
