I would also say that getting a referral from your GP would not be an issue - alternatively if you would feel more comfortable having your mum be present in the conversation with the GP, I think depending on the situation, it is sometimes easier to just ask your mum to sit in on the call or appointment so that she can equally understand your thoughts alongside the GP. But if you feel comfortable enough to speak to your mum beforehand, I think it could be encouraging for yourself to go into the GP appointment knowing that somebody already understands what you are feeling.
Sending lots of care!
Feel free to private message me at any point if you are unsure how to go about speaking to your mum
