@MayaHope go back to your doctor and explain that ask if he can get you referred to IAPT services. Or self referral to local counselling services. Talking therapy is probably your best approach if you don't like the drugs but good counsellors will tell you to see your gp before you change your dose.

@MayaHope seriously approach your local mind charity. Where I live they offer low cost long term therapy which isn't just tyke 6 weeks cbt where they just need to show you improve on scores like PHQ or GAD. Longer term therapy will use different techniques and should be driven by you at your pace.

@MayaHope Please please take them properly and go back to your doctor and talk to him/her .

I’m too tired @Rhodesianman

@MayaHope I'm surprised they did not refer you to community mental health services the guidelines say they should. So tell your gp that and ask for a referral.

I’m not sure if there’s any point @SW-User
