I haven't been on the forum for 5 months, last time I was on, I was having problems with my mental health nurse who took me off her patient list saying I wasn't trying, I wasn't opening upon to her, she sent me a letter stating the things that I hadn't opened up about. I rejected each one as I'd been very open about my depression, eating disorder, anxiety and hair pulling. I spoke to my consultant psychiatrist about her, how on numerous times she had me in tears, was cold and made me feel worthless, he didn't do much, so I brought it up again and I had my say about the letter she sent out to me. During this time my anxiety and hair pulling was getting worse and I found it difficult leaving my home. Even when I did go out it would take up to 2 hours to brush my hair over the bald patches.
My consultant informed me he was leaving, had got another job and that was in June. I'm still waiting to be seen by his replacement even though he said I'd be top priority. My GP is useless and doesn't seem to know much about eating disorders and anxiety.
Sorry for going on but I feel I've been judged for having mental health issues by mental health staff.
