Well, it's been hellish, the past few days. I'm pulling through. Feel hurt and disappointed. Booked to go away on a short holiday to see old friends. Hopefully my social worker can do something on my behalf while I'm away to smooth things out with the folk over at the community. It's been a very clear example of the them-and-us kind of an attitude that pervades the whole mental healthcare system. Not that that is necessarily bad - it just makes for more difficulties when things go wrong. Friends suddenly change into members of the organisation and there's the whole issue of a united front to deal with. Me? I just keep listening to my Ian White tapes and try to pick my way through all the nonsense.
See you in May. Alan.
