I’ve been feeling really down for quite a few months. I drive along the motorway to work and feel like driving I front of a truck sometimes, or I think about different ways to hang myself but I’ve not actively tried anything yet. I referred through my gp and had a assessment with someone but they said I wasn’t suitable for the cbt as it’s actual things in my life that are causing issues and if I had the cbt the issues would still be there so it wouldn’t work.

Hello OP, we are really sorry to hear you are feeling this way.

We hope you don't mind, but when these threads are flagged up to us we usually add a link to our www.mumsnet.com/webguide/mental-health Mental Health resources]]. You can also go to the www.samaritans.org/ Samaritans website]] or email them on [email protected]. Support from other Mumsnetters is great and we really hope you will be able to take some comfort from your fellow posters, but as other MNers will tell you, it's really a good idea to seek RL help and support as well.

We also like to remind everyone that, although we're awed daily by the astonishing support our members give each other through life's trickier twists and turns, we'd always caution anyone never to give more of themselves to another poster, emotionally or financially, than they can afford to spare.
