As some of you may recall my problems with my social care worker a couple of weeks back in my Done With Mental Health thread i had a phone call from him yesterday and his disdain for me was so obvious in the way he spoke to me i was quite taken aback he couldn't have been more inconsiderate if he had tried ( the urge to tell him to just F%&K OFF was on the tip of my tongue ) all because i missed a home visit and didn't tell him ( i left a note on my door but my phone had bust and i lost his number ) so now he won't come to my home i have to walk half a mile to bus stop then walk another mile and a half at the other end ( most likely hes peeved because i complained about him as well i always assumed that NHS staff were compassionate and understanding but obviously not )
why is mental health care in this country so crap
I hope a bit of gallows humour is to your taste. My apologies if not, but this seemed fitting...
The original is here on the Scarfolk Council Blog (very good if you like your humour slightly left of very dark.)
ive bookmarked that page to browse later
it's a disheartening thought but you're probably correct tom
I was a punk at the beginning of the Thatcher years. I was only thinking what a dismal time in our history that was... until I was reminded of today. Mental health, as you say, is crap - especially if you're autistic. I honestly think that if you chuck more money at it, all you'll end up with is better-paid and resourced idiots.
ah punk rock i remember those days always wanted a bright red mohawk but could never stand growing my hair
I've not introduced it to a JC fan yet that didn't like it!
Puts me in mind of some of the agit-prop during my punk days at the end of the Thatcher years, too!
