    Hey @ellie2000, I hear you. I'm sorry to hear that you've not been listened to when you've been struggling - it's not easy to ask for help when we're in that position, so I can understand how that can feel disheartening. You deserve to be heard and listened to, especially when you're struggling.

    Is there someone else that you might be able to speak to? Perhaps a service through your GP or community services? I hope that there's someone that you can talk to.

    Well done for using the boards to express how you feel, I hope that provides some comfort. We're here to support you, every day. In the mean time, if you need more immediate support at any point, these contacts might be handy:

    - Crisis Messenger - Our crisis messenger text service provides free, 24/7 crisis support across the UK. If you’re aged 25 or under, you can text THEMIX to 85258.
    - Samaritans are reachable by phone and email 24/7. Whatever you're going through, you can call them any time, from any phone on 116 123.

    Hey @ellie2000

    Just checking in to see how you are doing? :heart:

    I also echo what @Azziman has said. It's really positive that you are using the boards to express how you feel and get some support.

    Sending hugs :smile:
