Abandoned at 18: the young people denied mental health support because they are ‘adults’It is one of the most tumultuous periods of a person’s life. Yet, when children with mental health problems turn 18, they are dumped into the chronically underfunded adult system, sometimes with devastating results Because once you turn 18, you're magically able to solve everything on your own. 😬 Assuming they're lucky enough to get it before they're 18 in the 1st place. Shocking lack of mental health support in my part of Devon. My son; twice referred, twice rejected, having to make do with GP & peer support + medication. It's not good enough. LostGeneration I work in mental health. Adult mental health services are massively underfunded. Children’s services receive more. more staff, more resources, etc. The problem is that as soon as children reach 18, services aren’t equipped to step in. We need more funding.
