Λrden on Twitter: ""A clinician who currently works within the NHS GIDS, told the BBC her patients are now being left alone to deal with distress." Can't prescribe blockers ≠ can't give mental health support. Why are they being left alone? Does GIDS not even offer other forms of help? Useless."

  Exactly!!! They should be supporting these kids, but it appears to be PB blockers or nothing. Appalling.
