I was referred by my GP to the Short Term Assessment and recovery Team at St Ann's mental health services in late September 2009 due to depression and anxiety and the fact that my privately paid for therapist believes that I may be bipolar II. Four months later, I'm still waiting. My GP has followed up twice and so have I, being told that they will call me back, but haven't done so. It's a good job I'm not suicidal. Having said that, my mental (and physical) health is getting worse. I could go to the walk-in, but I feel so depressed I can hardly leave the house or even get out of bed some days. I'm currently off work with physical health problem possibly brought on by feeling exhausted, run-down and depressed. Maybe I have to go completely crazy before anyone will help me?
