Parents, children and struggling to get the help that's needed. This has to change.
The Issue
This is so true for so many parents. Not enough help is given early on for parents and children. Makes me so angry.. ��
It's time waiting lists were a lot shorter, and Timescales were quicker and more helped needed earlier to help struggling parents get the help they need for their children, and for parents to not feel like they are left on their own. It's the struggles they have when nobody can see. This needs to be addressed. They need the help. This includes children with epilepsy.
This is what I'm talking about and raising awareness for the struggling parent.
Enough is enough
�Parent: I'm Struggling...�
Camhs: Your not Struggling enough yet.
Services: You seem to be managing realy well.
School: There fine here.
Parent: OK seriously im realy Struggling please help me...
Camhs: Ok, we will help in 18-24 months.
Services: You are coping so well its brilliant.
School: Still fine in school.
Parent: I'm begging you, I cant do this...
Camhs: Only 12-18 months left to wait.
Services: Your not parenting right, take a parenting course.
School: We dont see any issues apart from the fact your always late.
Parent: My child is out of control and a danger to themselves and others, I can't cope, im Struggling, please help me...
Camhs: Fine your on the urgent pathway, see you in 4-6 months
Services: You can't keep you child safe, we are sending a Social worker, you should really be trying to help your child.
School: If they have anymore time off you will get a fine, they cope fine once they are here.
Parent: Why is no one helping me?...
Camhs: ........................
Services: .....................
School: .........................
Parent: Omg we finaly got here...we are going to get the help we need!...
Camhs: Yes they have Aditional needs there is a diagnosis report on its way in the post.
Services: Heres some leaflets.
School: Ok thats fine we will continue to do what we have being doing, we will just tick a box on some paper.
Parent: So what now...Who do we receive help and support from?
Camhs: ....not us sorry....
Services: ....not us sorry...
School: ....EHCP? No you don't need that, also not us sorry....
This is reality of what these parents go through, the truth, the Struggling, the lack of support, empathy and general lack of resources and the loneliness. The constant fight to be heard.. if you too are going through this, Im sorry, just know you are not alone, keep going, one day the clouds won't be as heavy.
This needs to be addressed and changed to a better system with less waiting list, quicker diagnosis and more help readily available
