When I took a brave step and went to my GP when I first had depression, he said "What do you want me to do about it!" He wasn't helpful at all. Thank goodness he's now retired. I had a second opinion from a different doctor, who thankfully was more understanding and helpful.

I am contacting my doctor on Monday morning for another appointment. The last time (first visit) she gave me pills and a card that had a contact number on to speak to someone but I didn't use the card. I wish now that I had as I am feeling a lot worse. I'm a fool for not doing so. Its just that I am so embarrassed. But I need to do something about it so I am contacting the doctor in the morning. The problem that I know I will have is that it will be another week before I can get an appointment. Sorry to say all this as I realise you have your own problems. I wish you the best of health and thanks in advance for reading this. Its been a step forward for me to send this so sorry if I cause any upset.
Hi , First you shouldn't be sorry this site is for people with various degrees of Depression and Anxiety and as far as I can see has helped a lot people to write stuff down about their inner feelings .. I hope you got an appointment and be able to talk in detail in how your feeling and get some help ..Good luck
You're not a fool it's the illness what's doing it.I'm the same as you are and sit in my flat thinking you should be doing this or doing that and i'm still sitting there at 4 o'clock in the afternoons and haven't accomplished a single thing.I feel for you and think we're all in one boat. Hope things will get better for us all if you have such a huge problem nobody wants to listen anyway because they don't expierience the same like we do. They might think we're just putting it on but for us it's real and it won't go away with one fingerklick.
