Elizabeth shares her experience of West Sussex Mind

I decided to contact West Sussex Mind a couple of days ago as I live in Worthing and was struggling to maintain my recently improved mental health. I have been quite amazed by the support they were able to offer. 

I had a call back the following day. It was very easy to chat to the caller who gave me lots of helpful suggestions, such as the support worker at my GP surgery which I did not know about and who can, in normal times, give you more time to talk through difficulties than a GP can spare and help with any problems getting meds during this lockdown time.

I was also offered the chance to join a mindfulness class (on Zoom during this time of isolation) and for real later as well as many other activities run by West Sussex Mind near where I live when social contact is restored.  It was so easy to talk on the phone to this lady and I will be having a call back from her which was most reassuring. 

If you are suffering at home in isolation with increased mental health issues, I can recommend you contact West Sussex Mind for I believe you will not regret doing so.
