Thinking of you! Well done on going to the doctors*hugs*
Hope you manage to go to the group.

I dont know about Cobweb, in fact that I have never heard of them. I only know about the CMHT, which I am under and that MIND do counselling (I have had counselling from them). Oh and I went to some place by the bus station that was crap that I cant remember the name of! I do wonder if it is them, but they have changed their name since.
I have heard about SHARDS, but never used them, so I cant help you there - I am much in the dark about them as you are!
I do know about CAIS (local drug and drink counselling agency) if you need them to give up the booze as I have been there due to my problematic drinking. If you need a referral to go there just simply go back to your GP.

I'm glad that today's been so productive, albeit scary. It sounds as though the GP and MH teams have taken you seriously and that's brilliant. I think the Shards and/or Cobweb groups sound very promising and I hope that you start seeing them soon. Well done for getting through today, it can't have been easy.
Thank you, Belle, I must admit it wasn't the easiest thing i've ever done but it has to be done and all that..

This isn't likely to be something like they don't like you but say it was a christian based group with an emphasis on religion and you were an atheist or it was a group for overeaters and you were anorexic that kind of thing.
Ah ok, that makes sense, still a bit worried about it, thank you though!

Ah you know more than me about all this stuff, I didn't know there was a place by the bus station D:
I know the Shards group is on Grove Road and in the same place as a drugs and drink place (Swn-Y-Coed) so maybe it's the same as what you're talking about, who knows haha.

Ok, I seen my mum today for the first time in like a year (my fault not hers) and I was pretty open about everything with her, wasn't the easiest and in the car she just turned about and said 'get over it'...That kinda shocked me and hurt a little.
Anyways, we talked about things in more detail when we got to hers and all that and it was fine.
I have found today to be pretty hard though, I don't know why, me and my family (Mum, mums boything, brother and his girlfriend) went out for a meal today and it wasn't the easiest :/ When I went outside to smoke I just kept thinking about burning myself and I was pretty close to doing it, I don't know why I did't, to be honest.
Hugs mike, sorry ive only just seen this!
I think cutting down on the drink might be a good idea, my doc says i need to and sounds like you drink a fair bit more than me, and for the wrong reasons (i stalk your rv :p)
It does make you feel worse, and it causes troubles with meds too

No need to be sorry.
Mmm yeah, I am starting to realise this, i'm going to try and cut down.
I think it'd be wise :) though i get that its tricky when you feel bad

Thats a good plan! I find that not having any around works quite well for me because a lot of the time i feel bad at a time when its tricky to go buy some

Whether you do or dont, its not helping though, right?
And maybe its potentially a problem?

Sorry sweetie, I've been lame today and I didn't check my phone til late! I'm sorry to hear things were difficult with your mum but you got through it which is good :) also, I know you don't have a drinking problem but as scaredy cat (sorry I've forgotten your name!) said, drinking won't help. It's a depressant and it's not good to fall into a new habit. You're doing really well :) xxxx
You can't lose hope when it's hopeless.
You gotta hope more,
then put your fingers in your ears and go,
"Blah blah blah blah!"
