Checking in...any luck with this??

I placed a complaint with the patient advocate (on Wed). I have received one call(yesterday) since making the complaint, to get "more information". I have yet to hear anything further.

It was nice of you to ask.:) It's always to have someone care enough to ask!:hug:

Checking in...... Just wondered if you'd looked at any online counselling options?

 

[WonderingWhy]

No,:no: I would have to pay for the ones I have seen and I just don't have that!:( I am hoping that where I have been getting my care (It's based on income and for me that means free) with me having lodged a complaint about not offering comperable care for "ALL" that something might come through for me.

Where does that leave you? What options are open to you?

 

[WonderingWhy]

:trapped: I guess unless my complaint accomplishes something I am without therapy!:cry:
It stinks,:furious:, but without money, or the ability (now) to work I am out of luck.:banghead:

You can still try on your own...
What do you think? Will it be too hectic? Or do you think you can work through things slowly at your own pace? I don't know how you feel about that idea? Would you be able to cope with it?

There are some great CBT type of workbooks out there. You can work through them at your own pace, and could be of great benefit. One that comes to mind is called "Mind over Mood" I think :thinking:
But you could have a look at the [DLMURL="http://www.ptsdforum.org/c/pages/book-recommendations/"]Book recommendations[/DLMURL] that are linked from the home page to PTSDforum , or maybe do a search on Amazon?
