Fund better mental health care for personality disorder in England.
In Cambridgeshire mental health services are structured differently to most of the UK. I have EUPD, yet I couldn’t access any support as the adult locality team / primary care won’t take PD cases? When I lived in Surrey I was able to get care.
Now I have moved again I am able to get care, but just because I originally moved county does not mean I don’t deserve support anymore, did not mean I was no longer unwell. Yet access to support is a postcode lottery. It is not OK for one county to accept all conditions under CMHT but another to discriminate. BPD is known as the most painful mental illness and 1/10 sufferers die by suicide. Why I am less worthy of support than someone with depression or bipolar?
