"Cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness"

Because of long-standing depression and anxiety, my GP referred me for mindfulness CBT at the Maudsley. There was a long wait - but once I got there, it was worth it.

The staff were wonderful and very respectful.

The mindfulness approach is helpful.

It's not a cure but certainly helps me take control rather than letting my condition be in control of me.

I no longer take antidepressants - so that must be saving the NHS some money in terms of my prescription!

Thanks.
