I spoke to someone at the center again today and was told August before I could see a member of the health team.
When I said this is ridicules I could be a lot worse by then.
I was told they have to many patients.
I said no you have not enough doctors, too which she disagreed and again said too many patients.
Now the NHS has saved my sanity in the past for which I will be eternally gratefull.
But this turn of events has made me worry about my future, not just my imidiate future but if I was to become seriously unwell in years to come.
I asked what should I do if I feel I can not wait that long, and I was told to present myself at A&E.
After much protest I was given an appointment in June, but an assessment by a health worker not a psychiatrists.
When did NHS mental health services become spread so thinly.
As preaviously said before 5 or so years ago I rang them after feeling unwell for one day and was told to come in the next.
One of the things that bugged me was she said the was no record of my speaking to them a week ago despite who ever I spoke to at the time saying they would.
And then later she said we only received your referral two days ago to which I replied that was not true as I was told the week before they only received it two days before then.
So are they that stretched they feel they have to lie to people.
Rant over.
