Hi,

Sorry firstly if this is in the wrong forum, but I felt this one was the most relevant.

I was wondering if anyone has had experience in dropping out of treatment with the NHS and any experiences? I feel like my current team are not helping, and have said a few things to me that you would not say to anyone with a mental health issues. (i.e. 'Its all in your head' etc etc!)

If I could have my way I would drop out of care with the NHS, stay on my antidepressants and seeing my counsellor once a week. I am also not working, but I am a full time student.

I just feel my current treatment is actually making things worse, and over the summer I didn't see them very much due to their holidays and actually started to see a reduction in my symptoms.

If anyone can help with this I will be very grateful as I feel completely stuck and out of my depth.

Thank you in advance!
