Hoping someone can help me here.
I recently made a disclosure about abuse I suffered as a child to a healthcare professional.
I understand child protection issues & was aware that she had a legal obligation to pass this information on to the relevent child protection agencies.
Last week I was contacted by letter by the local constabulary where i lived as a child asking me to contact them re; information they had recieved.
To be honest, this has freaked me out a little bit. Ive been very ill recently with issues surrounding my abuse, hence being in contact with mental health team in the first place. <br /> <br /> Can this health care agency give my personal details out ie, name & address? I Didnt think this was allowed?<br /> <br /> I
ve had such a hard time getting help & feel this "mis-use" (?) of my disclosure has been massivly detrimental to my well being. I have made previous complaints at a local level regaurding my care, but feel that this is possibly a step too far & maybe I should complain to a higher body?
I hope that makes sence? Its quite hard for me to write about this stuff.
