What a waste of time.
I saw them last year in July and in August and they were exactly the same. Pretty much sat telling them that I felt seriously suicidal and that I am an impulsive person and so I have no idea if I'll still be around tomorrow, but they just sat there going "Okay, okay... someone will be in touch later today." and "You can call if you feel like you're going to do something." UH. Would you ring a crisis hotline if you wanted to end your life? Probably not. Moron. They couldn't leave quick enough. Someone is apparently going to ring later today to arrange a doctor to come round tomorrow. I don't understand the NHS. I was in hospital for an overdose (general hospital), I saw the crisis team for two weeks, every single day, yet I still ended up in hospital for a second overdose two weeks later. And then they still said that I didn't need to go into hospital. What does it ****ing take to get some help. I'm at the end of my wits. I'm getting passed from person to person, my CPN is on a holiday and I don't see her until the 1st of April, God knows who/if I'm even seeing anyone tomorrow and whether they'll understand mental health and suicidal thoughts a bit more than these idiots that came today. Honestly, I felt like I was a display at a museum and they were just gawking at me. I hate the NHS and the mental health services. I think I'd literally have to be standing on some train tracks in order for them to finally realise I need more than some ******** talking sessions with a mildly qualified nurse. I am honestly at the end of my wits. And if anything, that session, a long with a really bad meeting with my CPN yesterday and my boyfriend forcing me to go to this drop in centre (that started the crisis team thing), I feel more suicidal than I did before. -- EDIT: Okay, so the said they'd arrange for someone to ring me today about arranging a doctors appointment tomorrow. Turns out, that isn't happening and now I have no idea what the hell is going on. I'm so just, at the end of my ability to cope.

The "NHS" ("mental health care") can seem like a sick joke at times

I have no faith in, nor respect for Mental Health workers in the NHS. Sorry you are having to face incompetence when you are so ill.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
