hi. i don't know quite how to say this but i need some help i think? i have had counselling for years. i am currently with a place called Leicester counselling centre but was told yesterday not to communicate with people between sessions, including the centre that are offering counselling anyway. why? and how do people cope between sessions? i am not wanting to ever go down the route of anti depressants but feel stuck. my counsellor has kindly? suggested 3 more sessions. we are talking loss and assault here not anything really important? they have complained that i've spoken to Loros around the anniversary of my dad's death and that's a problem why? i am 47 and have both dyslexia and dyspraxia. i feel shut off and ignored! what do you think.? i am being a rude pig and selfish? what would you do? i am not happy at all! 😢

just a quick update, i spoke to my counsellor today and she asked me how i'd feel without their support. what on earth should i do? i feel just confused and quite sad. i let this counsellor know something i have never told anyone today. i feel so numb..... i also need to ask if i had to speak to someone about community mental health would they just put me on antidepressant and i am terrified about this - i do want to have ivf abroad if they think the have had counselling then surely they will write me off? how do i get round this? how would you? what could you advise?

Hi Sam, Sorry to hear about how you are feeling. I don't quite understand why you aren't able to contact anyone between sessions. I think if you need the help and you are coming forward about that then they should really be putting the work in and trying to the best of their ability to help you, I mean that's their job after all ain't it, I would maybe try speaking to someone in a higher position about that as I don't think it's right. I take antidepressants myself and I think if it wasn't for them I would not be here. they aren't everyone's cup of tea but some people need them, would you ever consider giving them a shot ? Sorry to hear of the loss of your father, you have probably heard this before but he would want you to be happy. I don't think you are being rude or selfish, you are asking for some additional support and your needs are not being met, I would also be upset by this. try and speak to someone in a managers position to voice your frustration. Best of luck.!
