I am sitting here wondering if im the only one feeling this way .

The confusion when you need support physically and mentally due to impairment. But not receiving this because you need all this but don't quite fit box for there criteria.

I feel there is a long way to go and improvement needed with services with invisible barriers.

Because I have had a career and a life which came to halt and destroyed due to trauma of horric even. I will scream if somebody else in service says it's all in ur head.

I suffered torture and abuse for 3 years. I was locked up and I won't gointo any detail but a lot of horrific things happened.

I was in intensive care which saved my life which I nearly lost.

Have ptsd and many other things and due to trauma cannot gave cameras need support with calls and severe fear of males.

So what do cmht do try and enroll me in group therapy on Internet with a camera

I can't leave my home due to paranoia ptsd an. Need support with all communications.

Uc is just as traumatic, I m not in a place I can be responsible for myself. I need to support to contact them and do not seem to understand I have a fear of males and male voices are traumatising . But yet calls have all been male , although each time I advise them and raise reasonable adjustments.

Any one else sometimes just want to scream .... or am I the only one

    Hi @charlie72 No you are not the only one that sometimes want to scream with sheer frustration.

    I had to fight for everything my daughter needed. Then you would get it for so long and then have to fight again for it to continue. Sometimes I would be on my knees with exhaustion and think I cannot do this anymore. By the next day I would have had some rest and start again.

    Now though you do not expect anything to be straight forward or anyone to do what they say they will. We no longer seem to have any service at all.

    It is actually very sad when we think we have had a good day because someone actually does what they say they will.

    I am so very sorry you have such a lot of challenges in your life and so little support.

    Please take care of yourself.
