I have a ( non French ) friend who really needs help and while I think I could do something if she was in the UK I really don't know where to start
She has seen a generaliste who obviously realised there was a problem but didn't want to prescribe anything as my friend is quite new to the area & she didn't have the full history, but referred her to a psychologist - the appointment is not until January. Is this the way it would normally work?
I can't help thinking there is something that can be done more urgently. Are there, for example any mental health charities who can offer help or a befriending service?
I am really worried as I think this girl is really severely depressed and has really noone locally to help
Although I also lived in France for a long time I have absolutely no experience of this sort of thing
Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated

can anyone in France tell me about mental health services?
