   Went to camhs in 2021 and they were awful and were seemingly annoyed because I felt too uncomfortable to talk to them. And I briefly went back in July and the lady I talked to said i hid my self harm, I had never met this lady and I do not hide it and she ignored me when I told her she was wrong. Then she asked if I needed the sharp objects in my room/house to be out of site from me and I told her I didn’t (because I in fact, did not). And when my mum came in the room she started saying how me and her both thought it was a good idea if I couldn’t get to the sharp objects.

   I’ve been at camhs since I was 11(I’m now 17) this place DESTROYED my mental health I was told that I was “being over dramatic” and that “there’s nothing wrong with you” after I confided in them about my self harm and feelings and they said that because my family member (who also went to CAMHS) didn’t visibly or physically experience an assault they’re younger sibling went though they and I quote “ can’t have PTSD since you didn’t see it and it didn’t happen to you” even though that family members was OFFICIALLY DIAGNOSED BY A PRIVATE COUNCILLOR.if you really want your child to get better look up youth trust it’s just down the road and was the only thing that helped me.I’ve warned everyone I’m close with to NEVER go here because of how bad it is.

   The Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS) on the Isle of Wight is underfunded and inadequate. During two visits, the mental health practitioner demonstrated a lack of competence and knowledge regarding Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC) and associated risk factors and comorbidities. Additionally, my daughter's records were lost. The service's threshold for providing assistance is notably high, limiting help to those who are actively self-harming or attempting suicide. As a result, we pursued a private assessment through PSICON, which provided the necessary treatment. The quality of mental health services for children on the Isle of Wight needs significant improvement.
