Having mental health problems and attending The A & E department as was left to feel like a second class citizen. The nursing staff judged me, where rude to me and left me lay on a trolley. Not one nurse or Doctor came to see me. They assumed I was intoxicated without examining me when in fact I had had a fit. I left the department after an hour as no one came near me and I asked if I could go home and the nurse said "it's a free country". Please use another A and E dept if you are vulnerable and have mental health problems.
