Not much mental health support

Posted By AD1175

"Not much mental health support"

About: Goldenhill Resource Centre Mental Health / Community Mental Health

(as a service user),

Last hospital stay I was told losing my meds because my doctors were not happy with my psychological team that put me on pregabalin.

I feel mental health system is broken, not much support in the community as there should be and I am scared to phone the crisis team incase they tell you to have a bath or go walk multiple times a day.
