Anxiety

About: Crisis Mental Health / Single point of access team (SPA) & Emotional Wellbeing Service (EWS) South Yorkshire Housing Association Limited / Connect 3

(as a service user),

I attempted suicide in Oct 2017 after many years of suffering anxiety.

I was moved from the hospital to a Rethink Crisis house for 2 weeks.

Then moved to St Annes Hostel Woodhouse eventually staying 18 months. Initially the hostels GP did not follow the psychiatrist's advice and no treatment was forthcoming.

I moved out of the hostel into a council flat after just completing 18 weeks of  CBT that enabled me to at least get out of my hostel flat. I was then referred to Sheffield Mind/Connect3 by St Annes.

Hello,

May I first say that I am sorry you feel your experience within mental health services has been less helpful than you would have liked. We are constantly looking at how we can continue to develop our team to make it more responsive to the needs of the people we support. Can I ask that you contact Marie Bailey, Single Point of Access Service, Senior Operational Manager if you would like to discuss any suggestions you have for improvement
