I saw my local MP after CMHT wanted to put me on another antidepressant. I have tried 9 antidepressants over 9 years and found little relief.
The MP spoke to someone who is meant to be in charge of mental health for the uk (lol, dont really believe this) but anyway that person produced a letter saying I should be admitted to the London Maudsley Hospital. I read up on the place and it looks fantastic. Although I don't like the idea of being an in patient at one of these places, this place has a fantastic reputation around the world.
I spoke to my psychiatrist about it, they just laughed (whilst holding the letter in their hand) and said it was not appropriate.
What was the point in seeing the MP?
grr
