It’s not a waste of time - advice is something you need right now

[Suzi]

Definitely not a waste of time! Call them and get some proper advice love.

[john82]

I'll give them a call tomorrow.

Just found out the guy I've been working with the last 2 days tried to end it last night.

[Paula]

I’m so sorry, love, that’s something so hard to deal with when you’re struggling yourself

[Suzi]

That is hard when things are tough for you too....

So I went to see the mental health practitioner today and asked for what he could offer me now. He couldn't offer anything well he said he didn't want to I volve the crisis team yet as he thinks that would just make my anxiety worse, he's put me on buspirone for the anxiety and told me to take as and when needed but warned me about a small chance of serotonin syndrome.

I'm seeing him again in 2 weeks.

Finding it really hard to get up in the mornings at the moment.

[Paula]

Buspirone is good - and while he did need to give you the warning, and we’re all different, I was on 2 ads and lithium with buspirone and was fine.

[Suzi]

I've been on 2 anti depressants for a while and it didn't have that effect on me. Just be aware that it is a very small chance. They have to give you warnings like that.... We've had quite a few members on it and it seems to have been good for most of them.

[john82]

Well that was a waste of time just been to the pharmacy to pick the buspirone up and they've no prescription or message and there's nothing I can do until monday

[Suzi]

OK, an annoyance, but it'll be sorted on Monday. Try not to let it upset you this weekend...
