For the 2nd time both my GP and my private psychologist urged me to present at hospital. My GP, again for the 2nd time, wrote a letter for me to take to give to the hospital staff explaining my conditions and state.

Again I waited at the hospital (a different one to last time) and was able to have a brief meeting with a clinician. She listened to me as I went through all my physical and mental conditions (I had prepared with a list). She wasn't interested in the letter from the GP at all.

After the 20 minute consultation she just told me to call a mental health NGO.

I'm scared sh*tless of how bad my mental and physical health is becoming and I'm trying to do my best to do something - anything - about it, but I'm failing. I don't actually want to go to hospital, but I don't know what else I can do.

How am I meant to get help?
