    Hi Lisa I would suggest going back to your GP as your first action and take it from there.

    Your GP can reassess the situation and then get you back into the system, and depending on how quick you need help they will get you seen asap. In some places you can refer yourself. Do you eknow which PCT you belong to? Look it up on the internet and a lot of them now have sled referral options.

    I'm afraid that it is just a sign of the times that we are living in.

    If I were you I would book an appointment with your GP and put your case that you feel you still need support, and see what they can come up with.

    I do know that doctors do have quite a bit of clout with whatever mental health services are available.
