Struggling with therapy/social prescribing homework (social situations mentioned)

Stevie

I’ve been given homework by both Talking Therapies and Social Prescribing. I find it very difficult to start, and even harder to finish.

Part of my agreement with Social Prescribing was to try attending a low-stakes art class at a community space called the Hub. I couldn’t even make it through the door and ended up just sitting outside.

I’ve also tried multiple times to join a Ramblers wellbeing group, but each time I wasn’t able to go through with it.

The social side of the homework is where I get stuck, especially when it involves being around people I don’t know.

  • There is a website called "AccessAble".  Sometimes public buildings are listed in there.  You could check using the "Near to..." search box to see if your Hub building is listed on that website.

    I have used it to see photos, information about entrances and facilities of a building, who to email to find out particular information I want to know - about a building which is new to me (before my first visit).

    Not absolutely every building is in the website - but many helpfully are listed.  I have used it e.g. when attending an appointment at a new-to-me hospital.

    It is also a good prompt for what else is around in an area of a town / city a bit unfamiliar to you - I have used it to help me arrive early in the area and chill out for a while at s nearby library.
