I'm no good talking to new people it just panics me, plus it's the thought of being judged. My homes my safe zone, one of the reasons I don't go out is fear of other people

Mate I absolutely 100% know how you feel. I’m the same way but sometimes we have to be brave to get the help we need. They’re not going to judge you but they will observe and support you toward getting better. Yeah it’s big and it’s scary right now but if it helps you it’s gonna be worth it.

Whoever is your cpn will have seen people in all kinds of situations. I promise you that this is not a punishment, it's not designed to be a problem for you, but to help you. You just have to let them in and talk to them. They aren't going around snooping, not judging, just trying to help. I know that if it wasn't for the first CPN my husband had things would have been so very different. Really, try not to judge them before you've even met them.

Finally updated my address online with my doctors the other day, had to sooner or later as my parents are moving closer to me and today I've received a letter saying I'm outside there catchment area, I'll receive a letter with surgery's closer to me or go on the NHS choices website (which is currently down!)
I'm worried as the doctors in the village is tiny and always has people complaining l, they also don't have any mental health practitioners that's the main thing I'm worried about losing
How long have you been out of the catchment area?
In all honesty, if they think you need the support you can be referred to your local CMHT. You've hated your MH practitioner messing you around anyway...

I've been out the catchment area for almost 5 years but always used parents home address.
I don't like change just worried that the village doctors won't have any mental health services, also the mental health practitioner knows about what's go on and I don't really want to have to start all over again
Every doctors has access to refer you to a CMHT if they can't support you there. Really and truly you shouldn't have been falsely have been accessing any of the facilities when knowing that you were doing so....

Change isn't nice, none of us really enjoy it or cope well with it but having your GP local has so many benefits. You may be surprised at how much actually is available and how knowledgeable your new GP is. Quite often in the absence of a specialist the GPs become very well versed and up to date in treatment options etc.

The doctors have my old address but psychiatrist and when I've had cbt etc all have my current address.Originally Posted by Suzi
Not really the point love, you've been accessing services meant for someone else who lives in that area.
As I said, you should be able to have access to a CMHT where you are now.
