If you need help now someone to contact, by country

Lesson 6 of 6 · When to stop reading and see someone

The last one

Make it concrete. Which day, and who you will contact.

The move

Making the appointment

10 minutes or less

  1. Write down how long this has been going on, in weeks or months.
  2. Write down two specific things it has stopped you doing. Not feelings, things.
  3. Write one sentence to open with. I have had anxiety for about eight months and it is stopping me driving to work.
  4. Book the appointment. Take the piece of paper with you.

If it does not work

If you cannot say it out loud, hand them the paper. That is a completely normal thing to do and they will have seen it before.

Write the one sentence

A specific plan works better than a good intention. Fill both halves in your own words.
