i’m 16 in april 2022. i’ve been on the waiting list for 4 years of my life for CAMHS UK after being rejected twice and i firmly believe that if the doctors and CAMHS would’ve believed me when i first raised my OCD at 11/12 years old that it would’ve been able to be getting better by now. not only that i’ve developed a personality disorder in the space of 3 years because of childhood trauma that i’ve never been able to process and as expected, the MH service cannot help me with this. even after raising a diagnosis for EBPD (early bpd), the woman taking my camhs assessment went on to disregard it and say it was stemming from anxiety along with my OCD. i genuinely feel like telling my mum to pull me out of the system because i feel so disregarded and alone. let alone the 5-12 month long waiting list for psychiatric assessments or 1to1 counselling, if i even get accepted into camhs after my assessment. i genuinely don’t know how long i’ll be able to keep up with it especially as i’m still SUPPOSED to be in full time education and sitting my exams in May :/
