I had an assessment that was passed to Multi Disciplinary Team (MDT) who decided after my assessment I was to wait and have my ADHD assessment. Despite us already knowing my suicidal thoughts have nothing to do with potential ADHD, I told them my thoughts of suicide are terrifying and there is no help, the staff acknowledged this but were stuck.
I felt they were dismissive and forgot to pass on vital information, which led to a cancellation of my space on the waiting list.
Working full time and not being able to go off sick means I cannot access the online courses they asked me to do about a positive mindset.
I still have no date for an ADHD assessment, which understandable as NHS has no funding to provide extra staffing so assessments for ADHD can be completed on time.
I felt there was no compassion and little safeguarding practice.
