just read that you are having hallucinations and are responsible for children, have you got direct payments to pay for help? if not tell your GP that you need to be referred for an assessment for them. on the grounds you are unable to carry out your duties to your children. I am not sure in your area who does the assessments, but here in Richmond it is the recovery team who assess you, be careful, here they assess your need, then deduct all but £20 of your care component of DLA before paying you the rest, you then have to account for the full amount including the DLA bitwith receipt/invoices! if you qualify then it is worth doing because then you can employ help or reward those who support you at present. if you want more info on direct payments look on the RUILS website (Richmond Users Independant Living scheme = RUILS)you can claim for help with things like cleaning, child care, help keeping you safe when alone, assistance to get out to shop, socialise etc, respite for your primary carer etc. tell your GP or the crisis team/ your social worker how bad the hallucinations really are, tell them you are scared, tell them about your mum taking the children .... it all will help your case both to get therapy quickly and to get help from direct payments in the mean time.
