Scarlett, I'm so sorry the NHS are being so rubbish with your mum. I hate that my first reaction was ''Typical NHS''. Which it is, and I'm sure you will know yourself.
It's a shambles; but, it's better than what alot of other people in other countries have for a health system.
Mental Health is still something people think is made up. I know people at work who ring up with a bad cold and no one complains, but when a friend phoned in desperately depressed (she actually had taken a OD, but work don't know this), numerous collegues made the ''oh she just can't be bothered'' kind of comments or the ''it;s all in her head, she's fine really'' ones.
Needless to say I almost lost it with them!!
