Auberon has had problems with anxiety and depression, and sometimes self-harmed. The doctor he preferred to see was very supportive, tried to go the extra mile', and booked him in for double appointments.

Shane was diagnosed with anxiety and depression. He was prescribed a high dose of antidepressant medication and overdosed (self-harmed) one night. He is no longer on medication and has weekly informal counselling with a GP he likes. He also takes part in events organised by a local charity.

Mohammad had a heart attack in his mid-50s and was found to be diabetic at the same time. He had a stent put in his heart, which later collapsed. He is on a minimum dose of metformin, which means his diabetes is mainly self-managed. He is very satisfied with the care he has received.
