Seeing your GP

Symptoms vary considerably for different mental health conditions, but here are some broader signs that you may need support from your GP:

  • excessive paranoia, worry or anxiety
  • prolonged sadness or irritability
  • extreme changes in moods
  • social withdrawal
  • big changes in sleeping or eating patterns

 

Seeing your GP is an important step to getting the right support. When you speak with your GP, you should be as open and honest as possible about how you’re feeling – this will allow your GP to fully understand your experiences and get you the right help. Feel free to take a family member or friend along for moral support if you feel like it will help.
