My mental health has been horrific for years but has gotten worse since having children. I have reached out to receive support multiple times and then gotten a bit better but needed help again.
I attended an appointment with a nurse and was told that I’m going round in circles and they asked what I was expecting to get in I felt, a horrible tone. I have been suicidal and coming to these appointments takes a lot of courage and to not feel supported is awful.
I can’t fault every other nurse I have ever seen as they have been fantastic but this particular member of staff has made me feel like a time waster and that be basically can’t be bothered supporting me.
What’s the point in training to be a mental health worker if you struggle to support the mentally unwell?
