im under the care of my local cmht. was reffered bby gp in aug, 2 weeks later had an appointment for an assesment with pyschiatrist and social worker. then went back week later to have assesment with psychologist to look at appropriate therapy treatment, then had further meeting to discuss their team meeting where i had to fill in aninventory as they think i may have borderline personality disorder. have to wait till end of month to see the results with consultant pyschiatrist and to look at best way forward.
so my expereince is positive in that they are looking after me well, bit rubbish having to be assesed but thats so they know how to help. also have access to crisis line which is nice, as they have access to my notes immediately. never really know what to say,but its nice to talk to someone sometimes.hope this helps.
