Hello I was in to day after taking a overdose on fat burning tables. I have also a long history of mental health problems. But I felt and so did my mum that because I took an overdose the staff that treated me where not very pleasant no where they friendly. I felt because I was in there for what people assume on my own account that I was treated poorly. Yes I took an overdose but I surver from mental health!! I was left on a bed for ages the nurse took my blood but did not come back with my results after lying there from 11 to 3 they moved me of my bed and into a meeting room considering I still feel shaky sick and my belly is really hurting me. I was never offered a drink in my whole stay. I was left in that room with a police officer for a longer 2 hours without a nurse checking on me considering we where informed on arrival my pulse was in regular. Whilst in the meeting room I became to feel extremely unwell I became extremely hot and felt extremely sick and started having very unpleasant pains in my tummy. The nice officer left me to go find a nurse they returned without 1 and said I'm sorry the nurse said to just open the door thank a lot I was scared and in pain but what because I took an overdose I was what a waste of time. I was sick twice in that hospital. My mam got mad and brought me home no one even realised. I'm home now and writing this review as I lay in my bed still feeling poorly and still being sick when we left I was sick again and my mam said oh god it has blood in it. I still feel really unwell. I hope your staff are pleased with the line of care they took. Bunch of horrible people I'll tell everyone I know about the not care I was not given.
