On Call You & Yours we're asking if you've noticed any difference in mental health services where you live. In recent months a series of reports have suggested a squeeze on what is being provided, with seriously ill patients being sent to hospitals miles from home because of a shortage of beds. Now an eating disorder charity says that anorexics asking for help are having to lose even more weight before qualifying for treatment and a mental health charity says child and adolescent services have been cut by £35 million in the past year. All this is in spite of government commitment to put mental health on equal footing with physical services If you or someone you love uses mental health services, have you noticed any difference in recent years? Perhaps things have improved with greater willingness to talk about such problems? Email youandyours@bbc.co.uk and leave a number please so we can contact you.
