Emma is a paramedic who has a complex post-traumatic stress disorder. With cuts to mental health services, she says, “It’s been really tough, fighting for the right to get better. There’s been no community mental health support available to me. So my care plan has either been sporadic outpatient appointments with a consultant, or crisis support, and nothing in-between, and the only way you can access support is when you’re in crisis. So you have to get to a very low point before you get any type of support or help.”
