"Disgraceful services"

I was refered to Malham House due to my recent suicide attempt and my concerns regard extreme mood swings from severe depression to extremely high moods accompanied with delusions. I was given an appointment with a mental health nurse where i discussed these issues. I described extremely low moods (an my recent attempt of suicide) and my extreme high moods where I feel euphoric, don't sleep for days on end and have delusional thoughts, that if acted out could lead to severe injury of myself. I was told by the nurse I do not have a severe metal health disorder and that I should self-refer to counselling. I was also told by the mental health nurse I would not be allowed to see a psychiatrist.

I do not see how this is acceptable. I clearly show symptoms of a severe mental health disorder, especially considering my family history of bipolar disorder otherwise why would I have been referred in the first place. If severe depression (leading to suicidal ideation and attempts) as well as severe high moods accompanied by delusions, which make me lose touch with reality, do not constitute a mental health disorder then I do not know what does.

To further express the disgraceful service of Malham House, the mental health nurse was not supportive and was rather dismissive and almost argumentative.

Completely unacceptable service.
