But when I'm not well, when I'm itchy, when I'm not sleeping
well, when I can't concentrate, when I'm distracted, when I've
got such brain fog I can barely remember what my husband
and I discussed we're going to have for dinner tonight, it can
be really hard to then remember all the different
appointments you need and to communicate to my specialist
what I was talking with my cognitive behaviour therapist about
and how that affects my health. So, integrated care feels, to
me, the best fit, logical and the most efficient and probably
effective for people with - especially in my case - numerous
physical health conditions and mental health.
Stacian: I've had good and bad interactions in talking about mental
health. One example is being in the clinic where I see the
specialist nurses. There's no system in place for her to talk to
us about our mental health condition, but she'd incorporate
that in her consultation with us. So she could detect when I'm
not well, when I'm down and how much of an impact that has
on my physical wellbeing as well.
