Can you request to be taken off their books or whatnot? I don't want to see them anymore, is this my choice?

      Hi David, yes they are, my gp referred me during an appointment, said he was worried so called them and from then on ive been in their care, don't want to go into detail on here but I don't want their care anymore but I don't know if it's my choice or whether I am obliged to see them regardless of my feelings?

    Hi Dondon it is entirely your choice whether or not you see your counsellors so  contact them direct  No one can make you unless you are sectioned.   Are you sure though?   x

      It's a little more complicated than that though but it's my choice to say I don't want anything to do with them anymore?

    Dondon why do you not want Crht?  If it helps You get back to your usual self surely that's what counts.

    what does your partner/boyfriend/girlfriend think?

    what do your friends do to help?

    Do you have someone you trust to talk too?

    Hi Dondons, you can cease any treatment anytime you want, you dont need to give a reason, however I would perhaps let them know why and go into as much or as little reason as you see fit.
