Experiences with

Counselling

Hi Has anyone ever had preconception counselling and if so, what exactly does it entail? I had PP last year with my first baby and we’re hoping to start trying for another sometime soon.

Ive had some experience with NHS counselling which I went to a good few years back.

I have a therapist but she is just general counselling service. Any help would be great thanks.

I was left with the impression that I had overstepped some boundary for failing to find the counselling offered useful.

Hi, i am still suffering with post ICU delirium images from July 2024 (2 week intubation) and Oct 2024 (2.5 days intubated) , I am waiting for counselling but had a call yesterday from the ICU checking in how I am , while my health has improved I still continue to have random flashbacks / images popping

week I fall into minutes of despair, lonliness grips and stabs me hard yes , writing poems helps just need human interaction that I trust, I am a mini philanthropist, got a listening ear so I mask my pain being trained to listen attentively, been thinking of returning to that zone of venting a type of counselling

I cant find anyone to help me with counselling etc as the support network here in n ireland is non existent!would love to hear peoples experiences!

I have accessed services to start my healing and counselling. I am now back at work on a regular scheduled phased return for the next month. Onwards and upwards 🙌

Any help, advice or counselling would be gratefully received

I worry about taking this medication as no counselling before it started just a leaflet I was told it would stop in a year from start date which is in a weeks fine Thank you all

Response to ksxo, comment left re counselling.... I can listen and try to support you

In the counselling session that I received follow our recent failed cycles it was also suggested by the clinic counsellor that my partner may be on ASD.

Has anyone used counselling before the received donor eggs. I am waiting for FET and unsure if I need counselling, don't know how I feel apart from very emotional.

But I have tried counselling and I am on tablets, yet it hasn't changed how I feel in these social groups.

For patients it could be talking to a nurse who explained hallucinations, reading your diary about the stay in ICU, attending a support group or getting counselling.

Can anyone tell me what IVF counselling is like that is offered by NHS? What does it involve? And did it help? Ive had two failed rounds of IVF so far and have one more chance which I will do probably in October.

I am abroad in a non English speaking country, but looking for a telephone or remote counselling service to help with post natel depression. I understand recommendations should be DM only but would appreciate suggestions to get someone to talk too quickly.

I had my counselling for a CRT-d implant this week and I’m anxious and not sleeping much. Apparently it won’t help me with my AFib symptoms and I won’t feel any better when it’s been wired in than I do now?

If anyone tried CBT or other counselling, would be great if you could share your experience. Thanks everyone!

My option is finding someone off the BACP counselling list, who has tinnitus listed under their areas of experience, and seeing if they are recognised by my insurer or going with the pre-approved organisation as above.
