I'm sorry you are feeling that way. I hope you feel a bit better after taking some time to unwind.This is a good idea, thank you!
I suffer quite badly with depression. I had therapy today and it's wiped me out. All I want to do is lie down to a point where being on Tattle is a productive alternative! That combined with the effort and energy it takes to get up and shower and I'm wondering how other people hold down full time jobs!
I know it doesn’t feel like it but the wiped out feeling after therapy can be a positive thingThis is a good idea, thank you!

Maybe write down your thoughts and show what you've written to your doctor? That's what I did. I express myself better in writing than in spoken word.This is a good idea. Really sorry all of you have to deal with this horrible illness everyday. I have decided I’m finally going to ring the doctor about my mental health. But I’m so scared. Can anyone give me advice on what to say to the doctor? I’m afraid I’ll clam up and my mind will go blank
Not sure if it would be of any help but you can get free therapy on NHS through talking therapies I think it's called, they do a phone consultation and then determine what therapy is best (CBT/counselling) it runs for a 3 month period before ending, but after 3 months from it ending you can reregister. It might not be ideal for everyone but it helped me learn techniques to better deal with my mental healthI’ve been wanting to talk to my GP or a therapist for a long time because I’m worried I might have a form of depression (or that something’s not right with my thyroid, as some symptoms are very similar).
However, at the moment people keep telling me it’s “normal” to feel bad because we’re in the middle of a pandemic. So, I’ve been putting it off, and only have a look at some therapists every now and then but whenever I see someone who I think looks “nice” (for lack of a better word) they usually don’t offer any appointments within the next 6 months

It’s not normal to feel bad to the point that it’s affecting your daily life. Please don’t put it off, it’s always best to seek help if you feel you’re not coping.I’ve been wanting to talk to my GP or a therapist for a long time because I’m worried I might have a form of depression (or that something’s not right with my thyroid, as some symptoms are very similar).

Are there any mental health charities in Germany who can help you?Thank you
! I should have mentioned that I live in Germany, so this sadly won’t help me but hopefully someone else reading here!
I’m not sure tbh. I know my university offers a session to help you find a therapist but even they are fully booked for the next couple months. Covid really hit us all hard.Are there any mental health charities in Germany who can help you?
Nice to meet a fellow Welshie by the way. I live in Swansea myself.
It's good to see you all being open and sharing your experiences.
I can understand that. I find it very hard to be open in "real life". It's just so much easier when you are talking on anonymous forum. I also find you can put more thought into what you are saying and articulate yourself better than you can face to face.I’m not sure tbh.

I find it somewhat easy to talk about it on here but could never offline
