Absolutely terrible hospital. Actually made my mental health worse. Was manhandled by staff and left with bruises. I had a patient who was kicking me and pulling my hair and staff barely did anything to keep her away. Bare in mind I did not go near this patient she would go out of her way to find me. In the end they moved me and not her but I'm glad they moved me.because cygnet was much better. The NHS has become a joke. also the doctors barely helped and didn't prescribe me the medication for my condition. I will say I was a hostile patient but I never hurt anyone I was abused by both staff and patients. Absolutely terrible place

my friend recently lost his brother and father in the same month leaving him with no remaining immediate family. he has battled severe depression all his adult life but naturally this loss has driven him to the brink of suicide. in desperation he volunteered to become an informal patient at this hellhole but he immediately realised that he had made one of the worst decisions of his life. after being there for just 24 hours he had already witnessed sights and experiences out of nightmare with clearly disturbed or outright deranged patients completely left to their own devices as they ranted and raved, or argued and fought with each other and him. he managed to stick it out for a week but by then he was in a much worse state than when he had arrived and so, knowing that if things continued he might not make it out of there, he asked to leave, as he had been told he could upon his voluntary admission. this was met with an appalling betrayal of trust as three members of staff tried to bully him into staying with threats of involuntary committal and the purposeful attempt to provoke him into a reaction which would be used as a pretext to forcefully detain him. for an hour and a half they mercilessly harrassed and cajoled him, contantly changing tactics as they relentlessly hammered at him from three sides, completely destroying any sense of trust and safety from these supposed care givers. he is such an emotional wreck that he has had to move in with me as he doesnt trust that he wont do something drastic if left to his own devices. in this modern age this place is more resembling of bedlam than a modern mental health fcility where people would pay tuppence to watch the chained up lunatics fling their excrement at each other.... SHAME, SHAME, SHAME.

the one star is only because zero stars is not an option, now i shall go see about contacting my M.P and some journalists.

Absolutely disgusting care of someone suffering severe Mental Health Anxiety attacks. The staff need training or go work in a baby ward. They do not answer emails. DON'T LET YOUR FRIENDS OR RELATIVES BE SENT HERE.
Update! Family member had a full anxiety attack due to uncaring staff giving him information he shouldn't have been given. He was also BULLIED by another patient but strangely the staff said he didn't report it (we know he did). They had him arrested for assault on the staff, the Police could find no evidence to this and he was acquitted. Everything has been swept under the carpet, no surprise there.

One of only five G I.C's in England and it's an invaluable source for trans people, but you know what everytime I have rang up so far all you get are grumpy receptionists.
Also you can't actually talk to anybody to confirm appointments etc at certain times of the day.
Now depending on the hours you work and you don't manage to get through, you can get struck of far to easily and referred back to your GP far to easily and that's dusgusting when your whole life could so easily be hanging on a thread with reference to these appointments.
How long it takes to get these appointments and so easily you get threatened for not confirming. If you get your letter whilst abroad and there is no way you can confirm it, what then?
This needs sorting out...
