intact. Mr Cordell could see that most of his problems flowed from the very difficult set of
circumstances he finds himself in and that he did not think he is "crazy".
Opinion:
Mr Cordell is a 33-year-old man presenting with anxiety and suicidal thoughts over the last
nine months in the context of having a pending court case with no clear date or outcome yet. I
would agree with Mr Cordell's own assessment that he does not have a major mental
disorder. He has symptoms of anxiety in keeping with the stressful circumstances he finds
himself in. He also displays a number of maladaptive psychological coping mechanisms,
which likely flow from his difficult childhood with a violent father. His suicidal thoughts and
acts have been a long running feature, becoming particularly acute at times of involvement
with the criminal justice system.
Management:
We agreed a crisis plan today should Mr Cordell feel inclined to act on his suicidal thoughts.
We agreed he would either call the Crisis Team (0208 702 5060) or the Samaritans (08457 90
90 90). If these sources of support did not work out, I said he could always call an ambulance
in an emergency. We agreed that he could try an antidepressant medication if he chose to,
although he remained ambivalent about this at consultation. Sertraline 50 mg OD increasing
to 100 mg OD after one week, continuing as long as necessary would be appropriate. I also
discussed psychotherapy with Mr Cordell today. He was not sure about this at present. If Mr
Cordell would like psychotherapy the IAPT (Improving Access to Psychological Therapies)
service would seem like an appropriate place to get this. We have not made plans to follow
Mr Cordell up. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Yours sincerely

Subject: FW: Regina v. Simon Cordell for mention re disclosure issues 6th March 2014
Hi Josey
Simon date has been moved forward to see DR Jervis psychiatrist at Barnet Enfield and
Haringey Mental Health Trust 58 to 60 sliver street, EN1 3EP to tomorrow morning at
9.30am. Also can you please give us an update to the below emails as Simon would like to
fully understand what went on in court last week as to the discloser and if any more discloser
has been asked for, he wants to know if you will be trying to get the discloser from the
pictures to the Feb 2013 case and if you will be trying to get the information as to what
inspector went to the building before the party started and more times on the night, and the
invoices as to what stock was there before Feb 2013 after Feb 2013 and before May 2013. as
he really is not 100% sure what he is being charged with as to what damage and the amount
of stock he was meant to have taken. And also, to know what can be done with his bail
conditions if he cannot get a letter from the DR right away, he is scared as it a new Dr they
may not give him a letter right away until they have had more sessions?
