CMHT came to call

One day mental health services lady came back as she said she would. This time husband was present but also this time she came along with another lady, a Community Psychiatric Nurse, my now care coordinator.

I was not happy. I had said I didn’t want to be referred to the CMHT. I felt ashamed that as a psychologist I was being seen in a service I used to work in albeit a different locality but within the same NHS Trust. I asked to be discharged but they said GP would be unlikely to take responsibility of the care of me.

I was even further into the mental health system now. The care coordinator arranged to see me again.
