In 2014 I was feeling suicidal and very anxious. I went down to the Basildon Mental Health Department and they were clueless, unprofessional and very patronising. I went home with Lorazepam which made me feel worse. When I got a home visit, the cpn was very unhelpful, all she did was sat there saying nothing, then later on when the Psychiatrist came round he prescribed me mirtazipine which I already told him that they make me angry but I was ignored and prescribed it anyway. I will never see a Psychiatrist again as they can’t be trusted
