I came into a&e and because I had took a overdose they told me I was next to be seen by the sphyc at 2am all my bloods came back they came back at 3:30 am still no mental health tea I was told if I let the hospital the police would bring me back was took to ward 37 and dumped in a chair even tho I explained I have sever back problems i had to sleep in the all night which obviously i went to sleep i took a overdose of sleeping pills. I'm still sat hear at 8:30 the next morning and now my son has missed his morning medication which are controlled drugs and my son is disabled so he can't take them himself and if he goes to collage with out them he will be kicked out and he has only been there a week. I was told if I left I would be returned by the police!!!! This is absolutely disgusting even tho I've got my community mental health nurse coming tomorrow to see me.
Something better be done if I was to go home nothing would of happened my ex partner was staying.
