"Poor service"

About: Pendine Community Mental Health Centre

(as a service user),

Pendine mental health is not fit for purpose from my experience and feel that advising my GP to prescribe anti depressants to a professional driver is an easier solution rather than actually assessing the situation at hand. Not even an assessment was given,  had they have done this they might actually of found out

I drive many hundreds of people around each day but antidepressants is the way to go yeah. There is no help or support from this service and only help in causing more frustration for people who genuinely need that help and support.
