View Full Details of Sheffield Crisis HouseAs soon as I came into the house I felt safe. The staff are compassionate and kind while also able to maintain safe boundaries. There is a communal living room, spacious kitchen, and beautiful garden. Staff are there 24/7 so you are never alone. This is the best mental health bed I've ever experienced in 30 years of struggling with my illness.
The worst thing I did was go here. Instead of being a life saver they played mind games, humiliated me and tormented me. They pretend to care but they don't. None of them actually care. Rather then what they did, how they messed with my mind and emotions. I would rather pushed me off a bridge or ran over me, then reversed back over me because that's what they did with my emotions. They lied, called me crazy, that I was making it all up. What they didn't realise is I had a text, physical evidence. When I showed this, it was then acknowledged but they lied in the very next sentence which I didn't have evidence of as it was verbal. They make you think you are crazy, losing your mind, not thinking straight or making things up. Who's going to believe a mentally ill person anyway over them. No one. They left me emotionally unstable, I wrote a letter, made a plan, have the means, I still have these. It's shameful and a form of abuse what they did and put me through.
I needed Crisis House so much, after being in hospital after a nervous breakdown. I stayed for 5 nights. By day 3, I fell really sick with a 48-hour bug. I went out in the beautiful garden for a cigarette at 10:30 am, then went back to my bed. I couldn't breathe out my nose and just felt really rough. She said, "were you with a man in the garden". I said "No, I just told one other girl staying there I'm ill". 5 minutes later she came back, with another member of staff. She said accusingly "Is someone in your room?".I said "No". My anxiety started to creep up on me. Not even 2 minutes later, another member of staff knocked on my door. "Erm we need to run taps in your bathroom, we do it every week". I said, "You think someone's in the bathroom, have a look". I felt falsely accused. It ruined my last 3 days. I didn't feel as comfortable as I did. Staff should not accuse a person of something they don't know to be true. You have no idea what that person is going through! I did not break any rules!
I stayed at the Crisis House for 6 nights in all. (I was given an extra night due to added help needed). The House is bright and airy. The rooms are kept to a lovely standard and are clean and inviting. The kitchen is large and well adapted for every need with extra help given by the staff. I can't speak highly enough of the staff for their supportive and emotional help. I feel that I am quite stronger for the visit that I had and also knowing that I will have them at the end of the phone come day or night. A big thanks to them all for their caring and compassion.
