Hi all,

I'm currently in the process of finding a new form of therapy that fits my issues.

I already have a history with therapy and if something ended because it didn't work or wasn't fitting my problems I was used to getting a referral to something else.

A few weeks ago my latest therapy ended. This time because some of my issues have gotten better and it's time to deal with them in real life. I fully supported that decision because I also realised therapy wasn't going to further that cause. But in the meantime I still have other areas that need help with and I've voiced that several times in the last sessions I had. Nonetheless they just ended it from their side with no advice or anything on those other issues.

Recently some of those issues caused me to break down, not because my therapy ended it was just a coincidence, but it went as far as me calling 113 suicide prevention last Sunday because I was panicking I started to lose myself.

I have help from a social worker so I also contacted her. She came immediately the next morning and we called my GP for an appointment on the same day.

GP basically didn't do anything. He prescribed some calming meds and told me to go to the POH-GGZ for advice on what to do. Had a meeting with her, told my story but we didn't have enough time to actually go into what might be a solution. There is a next meeting scheduled in 3 weeks but in the meantime I can't shake the feeling I'm not heard, even from my social worker who's doing their best but doesn't come with ideas.

Unfortunately I don't have family and less than a handful of friends who also don't know what to do.

I'm not looking for a solution right away and I'm well aware that actual help can take some time. The only thing I'm actually looking for is someone/something that can help me feel heard. Who actively tries to think alongside me so I at least have something to hold on to whilst coping with my daily issues.

If any of you have been in a similar situation or have some advice on where to go I would greatly appreciate it. This extra stress is not something I can deal with for a long time. :/
