3 Frequently asked questions This leaflet is for any young person who wants to find out a bit about what to expect from Doncaster Children and Young People s Mental Health Service usually referred to as CAMHS. What is CAMHS? The Children and Young People s Mental Health Service was previously called The Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service which is usually shortened to CAMHS. Will people think I am mad if I go to CAMHS? Some young people feel uncomfortable seeing CAMHS because they re worried that people might think they re mad. If your feelings or behaviour have started to get in the way of your day to day life, you are not alone! One in every 10 young people will go through problems to do with their mental health and wellbeing. Many of these young people will be seeing CAMHS to help them understand and cope with their feelings. What is mental health? How do I get an appointment with CAMHS? We usually know what we mean when we talk about physical health, but mental health is often less talked about and less understood. Mental health is to do with how we feel inside, how in control we feel and how able to cope we are. The first step is usually to speak to your doctor, teacher or school nurse. They ll ask you to tell them a bit about the kind of problems you re experiencing so that they can think about what sort of help you might need. You can also refer yourself by telephoning the duty team on the number below. 3
4 How long will I have to wait for my first appointment? Who will come to my appointment? CAMHS will see you within three weeks of a referral. If you need to be seen urgently we will see you on the day you are referred. Is there anything I can do while I wait? If you re under 16, it s helpful for your family or carers to be involved in the process. There will always be an opportunity for you to speak to CAMHS staff on your own at the appointment. If you re 16+, you can talk to CAMHS staff about who you would like to come to the appointments with you. There are lots of websites and helplines that offer information and support to young people. These may help you to start understanding more about the problems you re experiencing. Have a look at our list of useful resources at the back of this leaflet. The person who referred you to CAMHS may be able to give you advice on helpful things that you can do while you re waiting to be seen ask them if they can suggest something. You might find it useful to think about the things that you d like CAMHS to help you with, maybe write down the things you want to say and things you want to ask before you come to your first appointment. Who will I see? There are lots of different staff in CAMHS. This includes doctors, nurses, psychologists, primary mental health workers and other therapists, such as psychotherapists, family therapists, art therapists, as well as therapeutic social workers. 4 A young person s guide to the children and young people s mental health service
5 How do I know if I need help? Will people find out I m seeing CAMHS? Who will know what I say? Some things you might be experiencing include: Lack of appetite, not sleeping very well, feeling scared, feeling sad all the time, feeling out of control. These symptoms sometimes pass after a day or so, but if they don t and you don t know what else to do then it could help to contact CAMHS. Generally, the only people who will know you re seeing CAMHS is the person who referred you (e.g. your doctor) and in most cases, your family or carers. CAMHS will ask you and your family for permission to discuss your care with other professionals (like your school). Very occasionally, if staff are concerned about your safety or the safety of someone else, they may have to speak to other professionals without your or your parents permission. What sort of things will CAMHS do to help me? There are different treatment options called interventions. These might include things such as different types of talking therapies or taking medicine. The options that are open to you will depend on what sort of problems you are experiencing. How long will I be with CAMHS? This depends on the kind of problems you re experiencing. Some people only need to see CAMHS a couple of times. Others will need to see CAMHS for several months and some for a year or more. 5
