Thats brilliant news, well done you Matt and everyone that has helped. I expect that this will help Matts mentel state no end. I am sure with all the support Matt has he will cope well with the conditions of the ABC and this story will have a happy ending. give Matt my best wishes.

All the best for tomorrow, I'll be thinking about you and Matt I hope thing go in Matts favour.There is a local group in suffolk called ESAN, East Suffolk Advocacy. I know they only work in Suffolk but they may know of a simular group near you.They also have some links to some national groups that may help. Yu can find them on google Again all the best for tomorrow

I found this thread by accident having read though I felt I had to offer my support and wish you ever success. I live with my husbands mentle health and dealing with authority is always difficult, there is far to much lack of understanding and empathy for anyone living with mental health problems. Matt syptoms are so much like my husbands it brought tears to my eyes. I also have constant battles with various departments. I am trying to get his dal renewed at the moment. I will be following your story there are not many that would do what you are, and I want to pass on my thanks to you on behalf of suffers and carers alike. To know that there are people like you is inspiring, I would also like to offer my condolances for your loss.
