I’ve was being supported with a community psychiatric nurse via my gp surgery.
I spoke to the nurse about ADHD and she assessed me and booked me a face to face appointment and made a referral for a diagnosis and today I received a letter saying it’s been rejected.
This was such a disappointment as the nurse had already identified traits in my behaviour and we discussed my childhood etc and she was confident her referral was strong and would be accepted but today I got the blow that it was rejected.
I feel so lost not knowing how to move on, this was required so I could learn and cope better but back again to square one.
I'm feeling that Ayrshire & Arran mental health services are so disappointing and really failing me. I work hard and contribute and when I need support and help to work out what’s going on I just got dealt the blow I wasnt expecting I don’t know how to challenge this.
