I took the leap and made a gp appointment today. Showed them what iv put on here.
They've done a urgent referral to the mental health team and specifically the psychosis team. I should expect a phone call today.
I'm absolutely terrified.

What are you terrified of?

Well done for going to the Dr.💐

I’m not sure if I saw your previous posts but a massive well done, that was an enormous step and you should be very, very proud of yourself for doing this. I know it is very scary but this means you are going to get the help you need x

Well done, OP. That must have been hard. You’ve done the right thing in seeking help. X

Well done. Try not to be scared. I’ve had psychosis and people are generally very kind.

You’ve done exactly the right thing. These are professionals who only want you to be well and safe.

You'll be referred to EIP and given fantastic support. It's for 3yrs and then you get passed to the community mental health team.

Psychosis sufferer here!
