hi, been hanging around for a while, decided i should say hello.
erm, recently diagnosed w/ major D + psychosis (phew, sounds bad just writing it...), been out of work for two or three months due to this (still waiting to here back from a couple of potential employers) and nearly abandoned degree, friends, relatives, all of it; on a couple of occasions too. Don't think thats the last diagnosis i'll here either, pretty sure i've been manic on at least one occasion...but self diag is a bad idea from what i here so..
found the NHS to be pretty poor on mental health going on my experience (judgemental, disbelieving), of the six or seven times i've been to my GP i've been prescribed platitudes, patronised and generally fobbed off at least five of those times. While i understand the limited resources available to the NHS I feel i've done my part (and more) concerning my ment health
anyway, hi again, comforting to know there are people out there who understand this kind of thing, hope i can give something back and post a few more times
