Thanks!

Yes, it is beautiful. Although, it is not so beautiful when all you see of it for the majority of your life is the office you work in! :lol:

Thanks folks. I've been reading this forum and it's opened a big world of familiarity. I hope this will help me as I've got in a bit of a mess in my head with diagnosis or no diagnosis. I'm currently seeking help from the NHS, so let's hope they help soon!

Thanks! Actually, I work for the NHS. I am moving house soon and therefore have to change GP practice. Unfortunately, this means my collegues will probably be able to read reports sent through our office, so that's not ideal.

So I contacted my occupational health service and they refused to help saying it's a matter for my GP. I only asked about a psychologist and I have already seen occupational health about anxiety and depression when I first started.

So, I'm not sure whether to wait or not..
