Thinking of you Lottie.
I find the crisis team to be hit and miss really. When I see them there are a couple of people who are really supportive and understand me, and the rest make me feel upset and frustrated because they demand things from me that I can't do, or dismiss how I'm feeling and suggest everything would be fine if only I did x, y or z.
It's great that you find writing a release- maybe you could carry a journal with you and write about things you notice, what comes into your head etc. My CC told me that if I wanted to write about something painful and didn't want it to seem to real then I could rip it up after and throw it away.
I don't know how it works where you live, but years ago when the only consultant psychiatrist at my CMHT made me cry and insulted me I put in a formal complaint about him and requested to see a different psychiatrist. Because he was the only consultant for my area I was referred to a consultant in the next area across, about 30 minutes away. I saw him regularly and he kept my team updated. Could you ask about something like that, except with a new CC/CPN?
