Hello my name is Bellat,

I am 38 with two young children who thankfully are at school today as feeling really low with lack of sleep and flashbacks. I have been diagnosed with complex PTSD, depression and DID (dissociative identity disorder).

My mental health issues only began to show when I had my daughter 6yrs ago and suffered severe PND & from there all my past trauma came flooding out and I could no longer suppress it. I've been in and out of psychiatric hospitals over the 6yrs and in the last year very little support from my cmht until begining of this year when referred to a brilliant consultant who has had my back in support since. After several professional meetings the cmht are now looking for a longer term specialist inpatient unit which although scary...finally hopefully the right support.

However in the mean time, I am struggling and big time with my *sh*. Not long ago through this I nearly lost my life and had several operations in such a short space of time and been told they cannot do another operation on it which I am holding onto will be enough for me not to do it again but struggling as no one in cmht offers me support in this area.
Sorry for such a long post.x
