Moving from CAMHS to adult services
I've just been told that I have a CPA on the 18th August to decide what adult services are gonna do for me. My psychologist told me that he thinks I should get 'someone a bit like him' to talk to there. I'm terrified, I've only just been able to open up to him after 6 months of 3 x weekly sessions, how on earth am I going to deal with a new person?!
I've heard so much bad stuff about adult services, it sort of makes me not want to get referred there. Especially as I feel if I couldn't tell them about the abuse etc they would think I was just wasting their time. I know these places have long waiting lists with loads of people who need to be seen, so many people need psychologists more than I do, it's not fair on them If I get one just cos I've been in CAMHS a long time.
I just wanted to know what people thought about adult services (cmht) really, if anyone has moved from camhs to cmht what are the main differences? Is it really as bad as everyone says? Any replies would be greatly appreciated x
