Join me as I share my personal journey through the complex world of mental health care in England. After eight years of waiting, I am finally set to see a psychiatrist. In this episode, I provide a candid look into the challenges and systemic barriers I faced, including dealing with gaslighting and navigating different trust areas. I discuss the importance of speaking up and advocating for oneself, drawing from my experiences within both the military and civilian mental health systems.
Discover why it took so long to receive appropriate care, how moving to a rural area influenced my mental health journey, and the role neurodiversity plays in my life. Despite the hurdles, I am committed to transparency and sharing my story to empower others in similar situations.
