I was directed to MhIST by my GP following my release from hospital after being sectioned for 2 suicide attempts. To register I was accompanied by my daughter as I couldn’t go out alone.
I signed up with MhIST for 2 sessions a week to help with my depression, anxiety, paranoia and overall mental health. I was surprised to meet like-minded people sharing their experiences.
I shared my feelings and my reasons for wanting to die or kill myself with the group. The person that followed me was there because her child had committed suicide and my eyes were opened to my actions and how my family would feel.
The sessions helped a lot. From just talking, asking questions to mindfulness and information and help. Please, give them a call.
