Should there be more therapy within NHS MH services

After a time of being under the care and jurisdiction of my local NHS mental health care team and doctor of which is a state run national organization to provide free healthcare and administer the care provision of clinical mental health across the borough and is a one size fits all non negotiable choice of care or type of system you naturally casually fall into, not knowing it's a wacky hill ride into heavy drugs for psychosis, insomnia, voices and so called false beliefs, and only short ten miniate appointment with your psychiatrist to be assessed and given an opportunity to recant the off the world strange unexplainable daily ride that is life, and hoping for better outcomes to occur or for a better more real explanation as to how this has been occurring within my already screwed up life.

As there was always a noticeable distance from the reality of getting to grips with this new internal perspective and adjusting on my own to a largely ignorant professional team of experts.

CBT was only offered to me once in the last five years and I had to go on a long waiting list for many months to receive the therapist I so thankfully got to know and respect.

As it dawned on me that more therapies like certain talk sessions with a capable professional has better outcomes but overtime, as six months was not really enough time to sift through all of the back log of stuff, as it's takes a while to delve into that deep for only an hour a week, as why couldn't more extra time be granted or provided as it's mainly centred around medications and drugs being the primly focus.

What opinions would your great people out there have upon this.
