Discharging myself from CAMHS

Has anyone discharged yourself from CAMHS? I'm thinking about telling my cpn on Thursday that I want to discharge myself because it's just easier going to a gp if I have a problem.

    If you think this is your way of moving forward then, I can't honestly relate to this as I've only been with camhs for my austim diagnosis and then left in the dark,

    You need to have an strong think about where or not if this is your way forward, everyone on the mix will be here to support you when you have your down days and when all hope is losed, their are people out their that will care and support you,


    this is the question you can answer only, deep down do you think you can manage your issues now and move on with life?

    Hope this helps

    That is really great that youre wanting to make those choices for yourself! :) youre in control of your care and hopefully theyd support your choice too if they feel they can. 

    Have you thought about the pros and cons of doing that?

    I manage my issues with CAMHS. They don't help so I might aswell be without them that is why I am going to tell my cpn tomorrow I'm going to discharge myself.

    Hello @Sham

    I haven’t had any experience of discharging myself from CAMHS, however I hope that it goes well for you and helps if you think that’s best for your recovery 💗
