Default Depression help...
Hey guys, some girl online was speaking to me tonight and erm...well, to cut a long story short she's very depressed etc etc. So I had a big talk with her and said I'd try find her some help, thing is she lives in England, Doncaster, so I was just wondering if anyone knew if anywhere in that area or any good places in general she could go to if she wants to try and get her life back on track.

I realise I'm not giving lots of information but if it's required to get anywhere then just say ofcourse...rather strange thread I know :/

Thanks in advance..

GP should be able to provide counselling to start with and can monitor her progress. If she doesn't get on with her GP she should try to find another. That's what they're there for.

Touche is right, her GP would be the best place to start. She could also get in touch with her local "Mind" sevices to see if they can help. Even if they can't help her directly, they will be able to provide information on other local services that can:

I would keep in mind that a big part of breaking free from depression is breaking out of the cycle of negative thinking.

I think you are suffering from a superiority complex

How old is she? Counselling is often not available free to adults.

ive been suffering from depression for about 15 years now, im seeing a phyciatrist which is helping also im on tablets. Im all for the breaking the cycle of negative thoughts but the thing is, its easier said than done, best thing to do is to see your gp and get some advice, they wont have all the answers but they will put you on the right track and may refer you to a pro.

Make her talk to the psychologist. I wouldn't recommend her a psychiatrist cos all he's gonna do is put her on powerful **** like Zyprexa, Zoloft or some other neuroleptics.

Here is a site I found interesting .
GP or if it's a bit more to do with bervment/split up etc ,The Samaritans.

Also all treatment should be free, this is the UK.
And not all tablets turn you into a zombie .Some just help make you feel normal (not like this ******* forum ,beware of ass hats ,they are all over the place ).
