I might be losing my CPN and Community Worker. At the start of February my CPN said he was thinking of discharging me. I know this means I'm stable and better. This has been all I have wanted for years to be stable that is. Today I told my Community Worker and she said "oh right I might be discharged from her service too" she says she works under my CPN's supervision. She says if Psychology input is still there then she will possibly be able to stay. As she will be under Psychology supervision. Then today I saw my Psychologist and I asked her how long I'm seeing her as she is a Trainee.... I have her until May. I struggle with closure and need to know when I have endings.

Today I feel frustration and annoyance I struggle to cope with every day things. My family don't know anything cause I think they wouldn't understand. I have had all these life lines and now I'm feeling lost :-(

I'm sorry to hear this

I hope you can find some other good support (although I'm in the uk and have no idea what this would be )

It's sad to me how the NHS struggles to cope (and often does not succeed)

It definitely needs more resources

I'm so sorry your lifelines and support is being taken away before you are ready. It's like teaching a kid to swim by kicking him off the boat. If it teaches one kid to swim, it's worth all those who drown in some people's eyes. I hope you are able to get some assistance. We are here if you need us.

Good analogy.. NHS kicking kids off the boat

Some do survive but live? Not with that "treatment" (imho)

Maybe if you speak to the care co ordinator? (Is that what they are called?) they could give you some assistance... it's great that you're stable and have made good progress but simply removing the support and life lines they had given doesn't seem like the best idea

Hi Fuzzybear,

I'm in a Bipolar Support Group which meets monthly. I don't want to take up resources if I don't need it from other people who are struggling. The services won't just pull straight away they'll with draw slowly I have been reassured by my Worker.

Hi ElsaMars, I guess I'm ready to move on but it feels as though I'm just starting on my journey to recovery with Psychology.

I'm just feeling really sad and like I'm losing the only people in real life who understand me
