I first attended the Cedars Center 4 years ago, I was in crisis and very unstable after moving to Wigston from the other side of the city.
I was seen within 6 weeks of the move after a referal from my new GP surgery.
I had the assessment by a junior doctor who was being over seen by my Consultant.
I started my new medication with a feeling of dread, anxiety levels hitting the roof, after 4 weeks of being on my new medication I noticed the difference.
My consultant saw me regular and tweeted the medication to get the right balance, after 30 years of not feeling normal and being totally erratic and unpredictable, just going through the motions of hanging on I am happy and relieved to say I'm enjoying life and living it.
This service and this amazing lady have got me to the best I can be and I can't thank her enough.
Reception staff are lovely, I feel and felt totally supported.
I sill have my moments but they are bearable and workable.
My consultant is the best at what she does, you are a person to her, not a number!!! She cares and can only do so much to help, the rest must come from within, it's hard work but with a service like this you can not fail.
Embrace what is on offer.
"Fantastic service."
