Thank you for replying.
I think some of it I can start to challenge... But am wary of doing too much too soon and compounding the problem.
The more I've learnt from the website, forum, books, articles etc the more useful it has become. I appreciate its only theory until you put it into practice!
They basically sent me away with a basic booklet and a three month wait, no acknowledgement of my problems or any tips on managing the depression. I had the scores to fill in and having done them previously I know it wasn't the low score! It just doesn't feel adequate and I worry for other people having a similar experience.
