Mental health services. Well, you tried at least. I'm a very complex case but I think truly listening to patients is essential. I have been diagnosed with congenital brain damage, but generally cmhts will conflate neurological issues with psychiatric disturbance. I have severe difficulties accessing all of the NHS and my NHS utility decreased dramatically during using the cmht and at the end I left because I couldn't take it anymore. Medical and nursing schools, and social work do not seem to train mental health oriented staff that neurological injury is far more common and physical causes for mental health can be rare and not in the bog standard list. In "behaviour" has a reason, even if the person is 'choosing' it, why are they 'choosing' it? Find out. I have now been diagnosed with severe cPTSD due to a childhood I wish on absolutely nobody, and my adulthood continued to give me no reason to trust anyone and no reason to go to services for 'help'. "There is no help but my own ability to DIY my life" I say to people. I have recently found a charity who saved my sanity and life from being destructed. Honestly the staff in NHS mental health are humans and will respond to their environment and training, and I don't see aberrant personality in more than I do. But, improve medical education systems in mental health. Physical illness should be treated as a priority no matter what the persons diagnoses are. High intensity users have a reason and behaviourism does not work. The behaviourist method drives us away into an off the radar lifestyle. Listen to us. Respect us. Don't make assumptions. I am fortunately extremely good at self teaching and have extremely high ability in STEM topics. I never was able to get a job but I got a pharmacology degree against all the odds, in 8 years. My uni was more helpful to my mental health than the cmht. The cmht caused my mental health to get so bad that self discharging improved my mental health a lot. However now I cannot tolerate any official support and find my own in the charity, private when I can afford it, and online. Medical / mental health education needs to improve, and pay too. That's where it all starts. Also mental health is not a vacuum. It has causes, genetic, physical, trauma, neurological.... The number of studies I've seen that have found genetic/physical/neurological issues in "mental health patients" who would generally be treated like a mental health problem is shocking.
