Nikki has had some very difficult times with mental health issues, including self-harm, and often felt that GPs didn't listen or take her concerns seriously. Things started improving when she started college, made new friends and moved house. Campaigning for better mental health services has also helped.

Siobhan went to see the GP because of problems with eating, low mood and self-harm, but found it hard to talk about her feelings to someone she hardly knew. She advised GPs not to just give young people leaflets and put them on tablets if they had depression but to offer other options too. She was having online CBT as well as taking medication, and had started feeling better.
