These days everyone seems to be involved in updating and ticking boxes on their computer (He types into his computer). This coupled with the time restrictions placed on appointments does not make for a good relationship. I sometimes feel like an interruption to their day, rather than the reason for them being there. I don't know about your GPs but it is close on impossible to get the same Dr at mine. The need to phone up at 8am that morning to get any appointment, instead of being able to book them in advance is a real issue.

So annoying! Can you change GPs? If you haven't got your GP on your side then you don't want to be fighting him/her as well as anxiety. I've had the same problem in the past and it really didn't help and made it much harder for me to cope. Good luck and best wishes.

Hi andy, mabe you should change gp's or even surgery, i did and its alot better where i am now and im seeing a doc whos actually human!!!!! she listens and does what she can, and if she thinks she cant deal with it herself then she refers me to someone who can. its really belittling when your told to relax........if i could bloody relax i wouldnt be here!!!!! i had a support worker come to my home today to help me get out more, she asked me if i want to get better which i found totally insulting, who wants anxiety and panic and depression.....silly bitch! hope your enjoying the sun and looking after yourself.x

Hi andy, I've seen several doctors for my anxiety and have faced similarish situations

from GPs who are incompetent and/or just don't care. I know how extremely difficult

it can be when you have severe anxiety to do the things people take for granted like changing GP or practice,however you owe it to yourself to get the best help possible.Don't allow substandard GPs to drag you down. Good luck.
