For example, if you're bleeding or in serious pain this wouldn't be the place to come for help.
If you're looking for advice, consolation and perhaps some fellowship then this might be the place to look.
This is not rocket science. What kind of help did you imagine you would get here? 🙂

I do apologise if my comment seemed rude. I definitely misinterpreted your question. I thought you were implying that these forums were useless.
I shouldn't have been so presumptuous. I've had people react to comments of mine in ways I thought were a bit rude and I know it's not nice.
I should have considered your question more thoroughly before leaping to a conclusion.
I hope you do find what you're looking for on this forum. Please accept my apology for being too quick off the mark and a bit ignorant.

Of course there is some of that, and actually at times that is very helpful, well it is to me at least.
But there is much more to the forums. I've been able to get feedback about specific medications. I've got advice from people about what helped them and coping strategies they've found helpful, this kind of feedback has actually helped.
Also, as far as the depression and anxiety forums go, I have found it therapeutic communicating with others that share my experiences. Reaching out to others in a similar position and offering advice and kind words has been proven to be therapeutic for people suffering depression and anxiety.
So, yes, I've found these forums to be of real help.

what you've gone through sounds horrible! Thank goodness for that locum doctor! Pulmonary embolism is extremely dangerous.
I admire your courage and tenacity.
Ive had art therapy before and found it to be one of the most useful and effective therapies Ive ever had. My local NHS trust won't fund it anymore.
I hope things start to look up for you.
