You shouldn't allow yourself to be put off applying for CHC by one social worker. The final straw when my brother was awarded it was that he was incapable of looking after his own health, on the contrary, his conduct without help would have been dangerous. Of course, cases vary and councils vary, but without trying you will never know.
My difficulty seems to be that mental health isn't viewed as a medical need, but I disagree.
