Yep. And it'll only get worse unfortunately.

Thanks for posting @Dimity
yep @Ed1975
ED is not the place for mental health issues.,,. On repeat….til someone pays attention.
CATT teams could have been the node or pathway to better referrals within the community, and should know the current local services, but they don’t.
Wish it were better, and sensible and not a waste of taxpayers money, and causing harm.

Yeah, but how many of us voted for these clowns? Greens are the only main stream party with a reasonable social justice policy, and they’re not getting the votes. Most Australians voted for Liberal or Labour, which means most Australians are complicit. (I’m not a Greens supporter, btw)

There just aren't enough psychiatrists to handle a crisis.

On the missing middle, and lack of community care..

I’d support the previous post if the site would allow it. @Dimity I have valued your advocacy. I think it is important for Sane, and generally as well.
