Thanks to all you who commented on this post. I really appreciate your input. I am off to bed and hopefully I will be able to see a doctor in the next few days. Will let you know how it goes. Good night.

Farah at Moving Forward is Canadian and does CBT, which is really effective. She should be able to fit you in quickly, and does couples and young people as well as regular counselling. However, she's a psychologist not a psychiatrist so can't prescribe The problem is that I really need someone who can prescribe. Then I will move forward with a psychologist. I will keep her in mind. Thanks for your help.

There is no private message facility here WW Okay then, Sabdein. If you still would like to try and get an appointment with Dr. Amer this week, I can call the DCHC for you and tell them that a fellow American urgently needs an appointment with Dr. Amer. I will then post a generic message for you on this forum to call DCHC and follow up with them in scheduling your appointment. You won't know my name and I won't know yours - totally anon. Your kindness made me cry. Literally. If you think you could get me in then go for it. The sooner the better. I really appreciate your concern.

So, I called DCHC to make an appointment with Dr. Amer and his next appointment is one MONTH away. Seriously can't wait that long :-( I made an appointment at the American Center for next week with Dr. Saiqa Ismael - kind of a shot in the dark at this point. Honestly, I think I am more concerned with finding the right psychologist or counselor soon just to help talk me through this episode and get me back on the right track. Basically just need a doctor to get me back on my meds. In the mean time, I will probably just stay in my room away from all other human beings. :-/

Ladies, I need a great psychiatrist/psychologist. My family is suffering and it is time to seek help. I prefer someone who studied in America because as an American I feel that I will be better able to relate to them. I need medication as well as intensive counseling. I know because this is not the first time and probably won't be the last :-( Any guidance would be appreciated. PS. Looking for a female doc. <em>edited by sabdein on 29/04/2013</em>

Yes, I don't mind paying the extra 5-10 dhs an hour if they are REALLY worth it. Are they?

The only maid service I have used and gone back to is Housekeeping co, run by a British lady expat, and they are very good, 043489445 ETA - the manager comes round and visits your home before she sends the cleaner round, you tell her exactly what you want to be done and it is! She tells you what products to buy for the cleaner. I leave notes each week, in case I want something new/special doing and they are done to exact description! edited by pollydxb1 on 20/03/2013 Any idea how much they charge per hour?

DD is in her second and final year of GCSE's but was just wandering if we needed to move would it be very difficult for her to do the final year back in England... I know this is going to sound awful, but we are moving to Dubai in the fall and I desperately need a seat for Year 13 for my son - it is his final year as well. I was wondering if you decided to leave and if so, what school was your daughter attending?
