TW 'Leaked NHS figures reveal 15,000 died in care of mental health trusts in one year'-that is NOT including those who have been off-rolled, were inpatients / crisis care / EIP. Nearly 1 in 10 of the patients treated by crisis teams died under their care. tinyurl.com/2w63jxzz

All my love and strength go out to Fern's family over these next three weeks. Fern was a special and brilliant person, and I miss her. I hope her truth can be heard 💜

Thanks for the mention!
A big thank you @nailseadi for coming along to our Advocacy Group to talk about their work supporting with forms, assessments & benefits. The implication that someone struggling is also lazy, not trying, pretending can be damaging to someone's already fragile mental health

Highly distressing opening scenes with a young woman being arrested for causing a public nuisance, put in a spit hood & pepper sprayed from close up while handcuffed ... after trying to take her own life This is the criminalization of mental distress

💜 Emotional abuse is so hard to recover from. 💜 #watchyourmouth #emotionalabuse
I'm all for reducing coercive practice but this trend in mental health services to place all responsibility on patients is dangerous and heartless. Expecting people who are scared, ambivalent, or just too unwell to know they are unwell to not only advocate for their own care 1/8
This message is our most popular post this week. Please reach out this Christmas, to someone you know who may be struggling. Thank you 🧡 #youarenotalone #givelove #givehelp #givehope
A huge thank you to @QuartetCF for their continued support of our Thinking Out Loud peer support program #northsomerset #MentalHealthSupport #MentalHealthMatters
I'm fed up of politicians arguing for #mentalhealth funding to be diverted to prevention & early intervention Any functioning healthcare system requires ALL THREE of the following: * Prevention * Early intervention * Ongoing care for folks with long-term conditions All three

@fidouglas I hate these modern systems of creating hoops to jump through and weeding out ambivalence so that only the most motivated (not to mention with the ability and means to use the technology - what's that about equality?) survive the waiting list.

This is the 6th #WorldAutismDay since my #autism diagnosis. I don’t just accept being #Autistic I appreciate and enjoy it, in spite of the enduring stigma, prejudice, discrimination, ableism and inequalities. We’ve come a long way, there’s so much further to go. #autismAcceptance
All my love and strength go out to Fern's family over these next three weeks. Fern was a special and brilliant person, and I miss her. I hope her truth can be heard 💜
Fern Foster @ElyssaLeopard Fern's inquest commences this week. Her family would like it amplified as much as possible. Our thoughts with all those who loved and cared for Fern. #JusticeForFern georgejulian.co.uk/2024/04/02/fer…
Thinking about narratives around “growing out of” self destructive mental health stuff and wondering how much of what looks like growing out of it is just hiding it better, and how much is that older people are more likely to accumulate access to more material resources
TW suicide My thoughts this week with the much missed Fern (@ElyssaLeopard), her family and friends as the inquest starts. Fern was autistic and serially let down. It is obvious she was an amazing mum. She loved bead crafting, literature and architecture. 👇from 💜@GeorgeJulian

Every day seems to start with another media story on "mental health" #Mentalhealth is now synonymous with mental well-being, willpower, happiness & mindfulness, subsuming mental illness & psychiatric conditions "Mental health culture" signals the demonisation of disabled folks

There’s no better way to get professionals to doubt the stability of your identity than to dye your hair a bright colour 💚
A study in 1984 showed doctors interrupted patients in healthcare settings 18 seconds after they started talking. What would you say it is today, and why?
Message to MH Trusts: Complex trauma is NOT a personality disorder. Trauma informed care needs to be so much more than another buzz phrase that is used to appear caring & progressive, but in reality is just the rebranding of PD services with the same hateful attitudes and stigma
my dog died and I am so so so sad and I have no idea what to do with that because I was already depressed.
Difference between pd and autism assessment
In total I saw 3 psychologists, 2 psychiatrists, & 1 SALT for 8 hours of assessments - this is about as thorough as I think you can get. Meanwhile they gave me PD during a 1 hour meeting with a nurse and 20 minutes with a psychiatrist who believed all women with trauma have PD
