    Me too. He's worried about how he'll be afterwards. I've ended up reassuring him a lot this week that if he's quiet afterwards then it doesn't matter, if he needs a nap, it doesn't matter, we will do whatever he needs to do and there is absolutely no pressure. It's taking him a lot to get used to being treated decently

    Fingers crossed it’s the start of healing for him
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    They're starting with CBT apparently as they think it will help more to stabilise his moods. I personally think he needs a medication review too but he's reluctant as it causes issues at work.

    What issues? Do work need to know?

    I was going to ask the same as Paula - why does it cause issues at work?

    Yes. Because of his position, any medication has to be run past a company pharmacist. Same with any dose change as it could affect his work. When he first started them, he ended up doing office duties for 8 months, though admittedly, the length of time was due to a failing on his then-managers part. When he went back into the box, he had to be supervised for a few weeks. He is honest with work, they're giving him Tuesdays off when he has therapy as their policy is staff don't work after a session, just medication makes it slightly more complicated.

    That's brilliant that they are being so supportive and that he isn't expected to go back to work after a session - about time employers realised how much counselling takes out of you.

    How did J get on? Is he being kind to himself?
