Ive just sacked my social worker. I told him 20 mins of talking about himself every two weeks in my flat whilst he smokes my fags is out of order. He got quite confrontentiional and said he would find someone else. The guys a tosser. Last time he visited he peppered my toilet with ■■■■ and wandered in an proceeded to ponce some ■■■ papers whilst lighting in up in my flat.
Im just preparing a statement to email to NHS Direct.
He has no understanding of Sz and cannot take crititism.
Im having the little shits job.
I get better support down the pub then these tosspots trying to rule my life. They aint seen nothing yet outta Roger Bloody Robinson!!!
Yeah i agree - The tossers let me suffer all over Xmas with no support - yet expect me to be timid and comply with there crap when they phone. 2019 is gonna be different for me - Im absolutly sick of people walking over my mental health and my emotions. x
They need to do their job and quit ■■■■■■■ around. I’m sorry they’re not helping. I had a pdoc who wouldn’t listen to me. Just did what he wanted. I told my cw time for a different doctor.
Yeah thats exactly what im doing. Had a top-up jab today as well as the one i had in the hospital - and when i started moaning about the lack of support and there crap i was hurridly walked out the door
“wankers”.
Yeah im thinking of binning them altogether and having my monthly palipardone Jab done via the GP. Ive found over the years that they always document crap to cover there own arses (to keep there job)
and really dont give you the emotional support you need - its like there spouting supportive rubbish out of a training manual before they were
qualified.
Told My social worker he was in the wrong job and get some training
in helping Schizophrenics. Told him he was lacking empathy. Did not go down too well. The little sod became quite aggresive and confrontational. Bollox to the lot of them. The CMHT in this area is pants.
Sorry you’re having these issues with your treatment team. But i’m glad you’re standing up for your rights. Sometimes that’s the only way to get the help you need. Good luck, man.
Yeah im trying to get my Quietiapine raised to 300mg as well. They only give me 7 days worth of 100mg - but i take 300mg so they run out too early. They keep spouting that im an overdose risk so i get them weekly. But give me the properr dose im used too and i wouldnt have to take so many!
I had severe paranoia over Xmas and anxiety - it really sucked to be like that again.
Yeah i sometimes wonder whether he reads this board - im 90% sure he reads what i post cos hes seen my username and this website up when hes been over at my house. Im gonna fight it tho. I deserve better than that useless git.
I have a peer support worker who is a lot like your social worker, @Naarai. My peer support worker is bipolar and he has been known to talk about himself for three hours straight in my apartment before, believe it or not. He is his own favorite subject. Unreal!!! And as he himself says, it is impossible to get him fired because he works for the federal government.
Yeah i text him saying i wanted someone else. Funny how quick he phoned back. Yet was left to fester over the xmas period. His arrogance was outstanding considering im supposed to be a vulnerable adult.
Probably shouldnt of said ill have him if i saw him. I was expecting the police to turn up.
They called my social worker a “case manager” and I was supposed to believe that he was on my side and that I could come to him with any issue and he would help me with it. Ha! What a joke! He already had his mind made up and treated me like a child, worse like a low IQ child. I quickly learned that anything I told him made it right back to the psychiatric nurse practitioner and got turned around and used against me.
Yeah this is a copy paste email to the NHS Trust that employs him:
Dear Sirs,
I wish to register a complaint about Joseph Foote (social Worker) who works at the Bedale Centre in Bognor Regis.
I have been unhappy about his level of care for some time. Him talking about himself for 20mins every two Weeks is not enough support for me. I have EUPD and Schizophrenia.
I contacted him to ask for another social worker to replace him and got an immediate phone call where He came across as extremely arrogant and defensive. This is in contrast to the lack of phone calls where I Was left to fester whilst ill over the Xmas period. I am supposed to be a vulnerable adult but he was more Interested in defending himself and his tone of voice was offensive.
I do not wish to see him again. Maybe his dose of sertraline that he is prescribed should be increased cos His lack of empathy was outstanding. He needs re-training I believe in dealing with people like me who Are prone to mood swings and that has a dual diagnosis.
After his phone call I was placed in a state of anxiety and started hearing voices again.
I truly believe that he is in the wrong job. I do not like his mannerisms or the fact he cannot Take criticism without taking it out on myself a vulnerable mentally ill patient.
Roger Robinson.
