24th June, 2022. Vicky Long and Wanda Reynolds continued to conspire with each other until the events of the 25th September, 2022 but it took me several long weeks to realise that I was still being covertly monitored and likely misrepresented by both of these managers. I had immediately complained about the misrepresentation of me in my medical records disclosed by Sothern Health on the 15th June, 2022. Vicky Long replied

Dear Mark,

I am sorry to hear that the notes have caused you distress.

I have discussed with colleagues how we can rectify things and there was consensus that we should put on record that you dispute accuracy of certain reported events. You have written a response to these events and we will attach your word document to your records to ensure that your account is recorded too. We have also reviewed whether the areas you dispute have been used in a way that changes how the service supports you. We have not seen that there is any evidence that these disputed events steered clinical decision making in a different direction, which means your referrals were not dealt with in a different way than they would otherwise, had the disputed information not been shared.

I hope this is an acceptable resolution for you with regards to the records issue.

I am very conscious that accessing your records may lead you to want to add to your existing complaint and you have sent a few emails to me and Wanda with further new concerns. There is an option for us to pause and allow you to add any other issues to the complaint so it can be dealt with in one report. This will mean your concerns can then be addressed clearly rather than lots of different emails that can get lost and not responded to. Please let me know if you feel this would be helpful.

Kind Regards

Vicky Long

Meadows CMHT Service Manager’

For the record I still robustly dispute the shared consensus between Vicky Long and her colleagues that ‘We have not seen that there is any evidence that these disputed events steered clinical decision making in a different direction, which means your referrals were not dealt with in a different way than they would otherwise, had the disputed information not been shared.’ I was to meet with the Associate Director of Southern Health, Karen Cleaver, later in 2023 and it was Karen’s professional opinion that CMHT should have accepted me into their service much sooner than they actually did.

Vicky Long was absolutely correct in recognising that I might want to add to my existing concerns following access to my records. My list of grievances drawn up against CAMHS, Bramblys Drive and CMHT, The Bridge Centre and presented to Wanda Reynolds and Vicky Long during the meeting on the 20th May,2022 was about to be reformulated and heavily expanded upon.

In the meantime I directed enquiries alongside a considerable amount of my psychological distress to Wanda Reynolds. The following email extracts perfectly demonstrate the extreme duress that I was under.

Dear Wanda,

I’m going to need help processing the information I’m reading in my medical records from the Bridge Centre. It’s really affecting me badly. There’s so, so much that’s wrong and I don’t have an obvious pathway to address the inaccuracies or the false perceptions written in these documents. For example there is a quote from Sally during the ‘professionals meeting’ of the 9th February that says, ‘ SM to discuss with senior management re; police involvement. Flagging concerns just in case future call needs to be made to police. Factual evidence we have of concern being shared with police.’ There’s lots of quotes like that, Wanda. I’m being treated like a criminal behind my back. There’s no getting around that! There’s earlier references to ‘stalking’. Stalking is a criminal offence! I am categorically NOT a stalker. I never stalked Sally. I Googled her. People Google other people all the time. Any information I came across was in the public domain. I have never stalked Sally. Her home address details are online. She had a private practice for everyone to see. I Google every healthcare professional that I encounter for the first time, either for myself or on Meg’s behalf. Good God I Googled YOU. I’m not stalking YOU. I want to know who I’m dealing with. I followed Sally on Facebook until she made her profile ‘private’. It was information that was in the public domain. I’m appalled that people have considered me a risk. I can’t cope with that. If I had been allowed to have had that meeting with Sally I would have put her mind at rest on the matter. I didn’t have pictures of her pinned up around the house and I wasn’t expecting her to be a ‘surrogate mother’ to Meg and join our family. The most that was ever said about that was one quote from Meg who said, having just met Sally for the first time that she loved Sally and that ‘she could be my second mum’. I thought that was really sweet of Meg to say and thought it a nice thing to share. And there’s so, so, so much in these medical notes that are not right. They are deeply upsetting. You might say to me ‘why even ask to see your medical records’? I want to know the truth, Wanda. However painful. There’s real injustice here. I feel wronged, to the core. I’m now beginning to wish that I’d never met Sally. I could have avoided so, so much pain. I only agreed to art therapy because I thought it was going to help Meg and yet nothing that happened during my three months with Sally has been of any utility where my daughter is concerned. And now my medical records from Camhs are to be disclosed to me this coming Monday. I don’t want those documents diverted. I need to read them. I expect to be appalled by them. Indeed, I’m expecting worse but I still need to read them. I expect further distress and humiliation. What recourse do I have? How do I tell my part of the story? How do I redress the inaccuracies? What do I do about the mischaracterisations and the misquotes? How do I live with myself? Am I really a monster or am I sick and don’t understand that I am sick? I’ve been watching tv with my daughter over the last few weeks, mostly crime dramas with mentally sick villains. Or even, more recently, the Stacey Dooley documentaries about stalkers. Is that me? Am I a villain? We’ve been watching a crime drama that centres around a man who abducts women. Is that how people now see me? It makes me sick to my stomach. I feel guilty and yet my only action was to fall in love with somebody. I thought that Sally was having marital problems. I thought she was available. She stopped wearing her wedding ring after our first meeting together. It took a lot of courage to make myself vulnerable to Sally. It took even more courage to dare to even consider asking her out. I made every effort to be polite and respectful but at the end of the day all Sally can think about is ‘sharing factual evidence with the police’. She was sometimes frustrated with me during art therapy. I now think that the frustration was the tip of an iceberg and that she harboured real displeasure at being forced to work with me. It seems obvious to me now, especially while reading these records. She once said I carried an aura of disgust about me. It seems obvious that I am a disgusting person. That’s what people are saying in these records. I really, really wish that I hadn’t been intercepted by Dorset Police on that day back in April. I really, really wish I had kept my suicide note on me rather than email it to you, Wanda. Deep down inside I thought I was a decent man with strong moral values and a deep rooted ideas about honesty, integrity and honour. I am clearly none of those things. Now. Who should I turn to that might help me process these abhorrent feelings? I’m probably still a couple of weeks away from my first session with Basingstoke Counselling Services. Is there any process whereby I can tell my side of the story? Correct the medical record? Rebut the erroneous statements? Should I even be writing to you, Wanda? I am writing to you in good faith and have some inkling that you can be trusted. I mean you were obviously privy to all the information being withheld from me. You were also somewhat disingenuous in claiming my meeting with Sally couldn’t take place because my daughter had been discharged from Camhs when the reality was that you knew the meeting was to be denied me for completely different reasons. Maybe you really do have honourable intentions and are sincere in helping me. I’m in a really bad place right now. I can’t do anything negative while my daughter is here. So I’m caught in an impossible place. A really bad place.’

Hi Mark,

Thank you for your emails and I am so sorry that you are so distressed. One thing I have been thinking about a lot is that professionals that don't know a person will make judgements on information that gives one perspective and there is always more perspectives.

Do you think it would be helpful for us to have a conversation after you have seen the records today? Unfortunately I have quite a few meetings in but I have a gap for 30 mins between 4.40-5pm - do you think that could be useful?

Wanda’

The ironic thing about Wanda Reynolds written statement, ‘One thing I have been thinking about a lot is that professionals that don't know a person will make judgements on information that gives one perspective and there is always more perspectives’, is that it was self-referential. Wanda Reynolds now had the opportunity to get to know me and make better judgements informed by a clearer perspective. However, this would be an opportunity that Wanda Reynolds would, perhaps wilfully, fail to grasp.
