My support worker quit...

She text me randomly last week saying 'I'm pregnant and can not continue to support you' and basically quit work altogether. Her boss was furious and so was my social worker because she shouldn't have told me and it should have been handled better. I'm gutted because I don't trust easy and worked with her every week for 7 months, we had plans to do things like going to the to important things like to get me to therapy I'd waited ages for that is 70 miles away and help me into supported employment. We have a lot in common and were more like friends. I don't know where to go from here I feel all alone again I don't know if I could trust a new support worker after this. At the moment I don't want to consider it but I'm feeling the effects of lack of social contact. 

Any advice?

  • Hi all,

    As it happens she told her boss the exact time she text me but because I phoned my social worker straight away her boss hadn't seen the email so heard it 3rd hand. To be fair they were both furious with her as it totally shouldn't have been handled this way.

    For me its now a moving on issue as I worked with the support worker for 7 months and trust is a massive issue for me so now its whether I can risk putting myself through this again, and get to know somebody else again. Its already effecting my trust with other people...
