NHS not keeping MH appointments

Hi I've had to come off my meds as my gallbladder won't digest them - currently waiting for operation.

I was when physically able attending support meetings once a week, when I told them I couldn't attend but would like phone sessions instead they didn't want to do this and tried to refer me to another agency for phone support the same agency that refereed me to them as they couldn't provide the amount of support I needed.

Finally they agreed to carry on supporting me as it's a temporary measure until recovered from my operation. They are meant to phone me every Wednesday but never do. I'm scared that if I complain yet again they will refuse to support me. It's difficult to complain as my MH anxiety is very bad.

I should of had CBT and I have not - all I have is a sensory cube toy to handle when I'm suffering which I got myself from Amazon. I have no coping methods.

When I explain can't take meds they have no interest in me and a negative attitude comes across from them. I feel discriminated.

Has anyone had any experience?
