jinny,
It's good you got to go when someone cancelled. I hope you are feeling better real soon.

On a side note-- I had a question. Is it that the NHS is totally free-- no charge for visits and so that is the reason for such waiting lists? I've read that there are psychologists and counselors readily available(only have to wait a few weeks as opposed to several months) when one pays a fee... is that correct? It's the FREE service that is so difficult to navigate... is that the problem with mental help there in the UK?.... I was just wondering.....if you don't mind me asking......(I've just always had to pay when I've been in therapy-- here in the US)

Take care and I wish you much healing.
