    Morning, hope you're feeling ok this morning.

    I'm sure other users will have an opinion, but as a mod I do have to encourage you to seek some support and help where you can, so yes I do think it is a good thing. People of course have mixed experiences with the different services, but unfortunately it is very difficult to get any support without going down those channels.

    Have a read of a couple of articles which may help - in particular Going to see your GP might help set your mind at ease. If you self harm, this article may help too.

    It's important to try and tell yourself that these people can help you get better and if that's something that you want then although admitting you need help is very difficult, it could be the first step on your road to recovery :) In the meantime, look after yourself and don't forget about self care.
