Hi Paul

I don't know how it works with vets partners as I'm not one.

I know that as a non military spouse that if you need or want help then the only way you can get it is to find & pay for it yourself.

I was very luck that my bro works for the gov & has access to provide me with free appts with a psychologist. Not sure how long I am able to do this but I usually see him every 3rd month or so just to vent & get things off my chest.

I did try to seek other support before my bro arranged the appt for me. Most places have waiting lists to get in & you can expect to pay about $50 + per visit.

If you do have a good GP that you feel comfortable with, start there. If possible they may be able to refer you on to someone that can help.

Good luck!
