Hi, I’ve been diagnosed and tritated by psychiatry uk.

I’ve now got a shared care agreement with my gp.

I’m finding it wears off early afternoon, so my sometimes difficult home life doesn’t benefit.

I asked several times about boosters or split doses, but was refused with them quoting guidelines.

Other providers do, I’ve checked.

What can I do?

I can’t afford to pay for private prescriptions long term.

I have written an initial post but when I click on Create a topic I get this:
An error occurred: You are not permitted to view the requested resource.

Is there a delay between joining and being able to post?

Please advise, thanks.

Same question. I also can’t create a new question.

Hi, I just got my diagnosis (nhs) and the wait times for titration is 12-18 months. Could I switch titration to a different provider?
