Went to a and e last week at lowest ebb and came out so much more optimistic following promised care plan was given. Only it's not worked out like that. Been called by uclh psych team but no appt given, had daily calls from Barnet but again no actual offer of support and today social worker called and insisted on appt this week at home will need to miss work for. 100% all this is b responsible and needed in that of course part of the role of mental health services is to check on my safety and of course the baby's and so far everyone v nice etc but feeling far far more inspected than supported. At the home visit was asked if felt could control people's minds, if I knew what year it was etc and of course appreciate they need to check for everything but basically just very unhappy and anxious and want support as can't afford private sessions any more and been told that that is coming but in mean time feeling weird combo of scrutinised and abandoned. Wonder if Barnet and uclh each think the other leading on support? Does this sound like normal follow up?
