About: Millbrook Mental Health Unit / Orchid Ward

(as a service user),

I went to a dark place, I used to laugh mental health off at work. Then one day I got so down I went missing thinking of ways to commit suicide. Luckily I backed out at the last minute. I ended up in Millbrook mental health unit for thirteen weeks. I had seven   treatments of ECT. On the last treatment I showed vast improvement and was released. Then 65, Northgate took over my care for the next 18 months. The service I received was great

thankyou for taking the time to post your feedback
