Has anybody heard of these people? Social Prescribing sounds a lot like them.

Hi @Franstrahan, they probably are closely linked. Wellbeing can be looking at the whole person, with social prescribing helping to get people involved with the community.
Have you had any support from wellbeing?Scope -
Inour are we have something called Staying Well...it`s for older folk....getting out into the community.

Hi Chloe. The local vicar put them on to me last winter but they were no help at all.
I'm going to give Social Prescribing a go. Think my counsellor can arrange that tomorrow. -
Sorry to hear it wasn't much help @Franstrahan, I hope tomorrow goes well.

Thank you. Will let you know.

WellBeing is a new marketing ploy by the NHS for the locations where those marketing their so called support services work.
-
They didn't support me. They didn't do anything. Hoping Social Prescribing will be better.

Not just me then. They should be looked into by whatever body governs all this.

Due to the corrupt nature of the NHS complaints options, you can register a complaint, which is then totally ignored. Thye never investigate any complaints it is just one big fraud, run by the current government.

Is this the “Wellbeing Service” you are talking about? I’ve just signed up with them to do some CBT so hope they can help me.

One of the problems form my experience is that CBT does not even begin to address the complex nature of my disability.
Hopefully you may gain some benefit -
I’m staying open minded but I have had good and bad experiences with mental health professionals in the past, probably more bad than good sadly!

Hi @66Mustang, CBT can be beneficial for some people! I really hope you find it helps you.
