"Asking for help."

About: Dr Gray's Hospital / Emergency Medicine

(as the patient),

I went into A@E Dr Grays Elgin Moray as I was desperate for help as I was suicidal. I had no where else to go and this was my last hope but instead of helping me they handed me a complaints form and asked me to leave. As I am disabled and find it hard to sit down or stand up for long periods of time I was limping and crying for help and I mean crying my eyes out I had to leave. I would hate to think that anybody else would have to go through this sort of treatment I want to tell my story. They would rather hand out complaint forms instead of help.
