I am writing to express my deep frustration and confusion regarding the service I have received. I have encountered numerous issues that have left me feeling unsupported. Firstly, I was informed that I had been discharged from the service in June. However, my GP has not received any letter confirming this discharge, which raises serious concerns about the accuracy and timeliness of your communication. It is perplexing that despite the discussions about my discharge, there was no mention of this in our communications last week. Furthermore, I made it clear that my lack of engagement during the titration period was due to my observance of Eid. Despite my honesty, it seems that no allowances were made for these significant life events. The lack of understanding and flexibility shown by your service in this regard is disappointing, especially considering the additional challenges posed by ADHD and dyslexia. Moreover, I have heard of other patients being discharged abruptly, with the excuse of medication shortages. Now, I fear that I am being targeted similarly, with unsubstantiated reasons being used to justify my discharge. This is incredibly concerning, particularly as I have already endured a lengthy wait for medication that, in the end, did not work for me. It feels as though, after years of waiting, I am being dismissed without a valid reason. One of the most distressing aspects of this situation is the impact it is having on my education. I had put my studies on hold, hoping that the new medication would enable me to return to university. When I was informed that I would be trying a new medication, I re-enrolled, expecting that I would finally receive the support I needed to succeed in my studies. Now, with the threat of discharge hanging over me, my academic future is once again in jeopardy. Additionally, I have encountered issues with accessing my letter, as I am unable to open it using my date of birth. This further adds to my frustration and sense of being neglected by your service.
