Hi there,
What a year! Daughter of 17.6 yrs has had diagnosis this week.
Has been under CAMHS since 13 years with depression, anxiety, self harm and suicide ideation.
Was sectioned in June for 4 months, discharged Oct, hospital diagnosed emerging eupd. Home for 4 weeks before was admitted to local hospital for acting on suicidal thoughts and is now in a safe house for 7 days.
They want to discharge next week to home but as a single mum Its physically impossible to watch her 24/7.
They are having a mental health assessment on Monday but didn't want to go down the sectioning path and daughter would not go in as voluntary inpatient due to the awful experience previously.
CETR meeting planned for 2nd December but this is all new to me and I feel out of my depth.
Any advice appreciated please.
Thank you, I will give them a call on Monday
ok i have to go so sticking these up just in case
