Rejected from Greater Manchester Psychology service
I was diagnosed with BDP two years ago. I got help through private health insurance but it was discontinued when I changed jobs as it was considered a pre exciting condition. I have been having some difficulties lately and went to my doctors mental health team in the beginning of September. They only offer counselling and CBT. The diagnosis letter states I require DBT. The mental health team agreed I need referring to Greater Manchester Psychology team who today have rejected my referral stating that there is nothing on the NHS in Manchester to help me and I am not high enough risk. The lady who called me from that team put the phone down on me when I said how disgusting it was. For somebody who can’t handle rejection and who is desperately trying to get better, it’s an absolute disgrace. Is there anybody I can write to on this matter? #Greatmanchestermentalhealth #bdp #MentalHealth #DBT #Dbtskills #DBTIntake #Rejection
