It was a bit of a blur for me. I was put on antidepressants at the time but I had to speak to my GP about my mental health. He could see the state I was in and agreed I could have help. I was signposted to different organisations and put on a waiting list to see a counsellor. My GP warned me that I would be flagged by social services. At one point I had my own family support worker who organised weekly food deliveries. This was over the pandemic. It was a while before I saw a counsellor online and I only had 6 sessions before they stopped. I received support quickly and was grateful for the support I received. I’m not sure about now. I think there have been lots of changes to the system.
