"Left me feeling worse"

After initial assessment involving deeply personal irrelevant questions nothing came from it, I was threatened to be discharged after 3 appointments because i cannot focus on reading tasks which is part of the depression (figure that one out for me), unhelpful staff who would constantly put me down and disagree with me without explaining, would ask how they could accommodate my own needs then complete blank over them in their reply.

As someone who cannot stay focused on unbroken paragraphs of paper and being given no instruction on what i should be doing this was just not for me as my "care" worker would not interact with me in a way that wasn't patronising and would not move me onto one on one counselling without having going though CBT which i just could not do due to my illness.

Would not recommend if you want to keep hold of anything resembling some self worth.
