"Rejected"

About: Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust / Adult Mental Health Services - Community (County)

(as a service user),

I’ve contacted the crisis team in the Mansfield area on more than one occasion due to my multiple mental health issues which causes me to make irrational decisions and puts me at risk at major emotional points in my life, due to the fact I can explain myself in a rational and controlled way at anytime I speak with them they dismiss the fact I’m mentally unhinged and need help, I’m now at one of the lowest points I’ve ever been in my life and I’m struggling to cope with my emotions which has led to me drastically loosing weight which in turn has effected my strength and mobility and I’ve not left my home in months, I lost faith in the mental health services a long time ago but still tried to get help but as usual I’ve been push aside due to one fact I’m able to explain what is wrong with me so the assumption is I’m mentally capable and their services aren’t required. So now I’m very ill and have no support from any health professionals when I need it most.

Let me start by saying that I am sorry you are feeling this way and disappointed that you don't think the team have been helpful, that you haven't been listened to and that you feel rejected. So I can understand your experience so far and help you to find the support you need please don’t hesitate to contact me.
