Oh that is an awful thing for the nurse to have said. I'm hoping your CPN doesn't think the same, I'm sure she doesn't. I sometimes believe I'm a drain on the NHS because I've been to a secure hospital that cost about 50k and I'm still exactly the same and then this other hospital is about 50k for 6 months so yeah :/ I often wonder if I'm worth it.
I remember this Doctor at my local hospital. He said to me if I lived in his country I'd get no support so I should count myself lucky that I live in the UK :( I just wanted to punch him!
You are definitely not a waste of her time. You're unwell and need her help/support and at the end of the day she chose to do that job and she gets paid for it.
