This is the state of our mh system. We get told to reach out, and this is how we are treated. Disgusting

Mental health hospitals don't have to be like this. We need to act. Now. Write to your MP, and invite them to our #RaiseTheStandard event 👉🏾 bit.ly/3Xg9idu

An autistic 16-year-old spent SEVEN MONTHS on a busy hospital ward due to a lack of suitable children's mental health services. This is horrifying snapshot of the human rights crisis facing autistic people (particularly children) in need of support. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-655316…

How can the system leave anyone like this ? Trapped in an acute ward without the support they desperately need. If anyone knows anyone who may be able to help lydia, please message her, she deserves so much more than this 💜

4 yrs ago, @BethMatthewsz was so desperate she did the unthinkable A year on, she'd bravely opened up in extraordinary detail. I'll always be proud of her, and how hard she fought. I'm so sorry they failed you. All we can do is hope her story will continue to help other people

Despite government promises to reduce numbers of people with a #LearningDisability or autistic people locked up in inpatient units, the number has increased again to at least 2,045. 🔒 People should live in #HomesNotHospitals. Take action with us: secure.mencap.org.uk/homes_not_hosp… 👈

Read this comment, and sign the petition. My 20 year old autistic daughter was placed under section in a London hospital because she wasn't coping with life. She was massively failed by the so called professionals who were supposed to help... chng.it/8xpLNv9g via @Change

The only person who gets to decide if something was traumatic, is the person who experienced the event.

The abuse our most vulnerable children have received is not restricted to one area or one group - it’s a nation wide scandal involving multiple providers

One of the greatest concerns in health care is the normalisation of watching patients dying preventable deaths from treatable illnesses Of all the doctors involved, not one spoke up to say this is wrong It is imperative to support the development of moral courage in health care

I was in huntercombe Stafford 2016/2017 sadly for me it was one of the better hospitals I was placed in as a teenager. I say that with a heavy heart as it was still abusive left to clean up my blood on walls etc.I've witnessed so much abuse it became normal to me.We need change

It is torture, There is no other way to describe a psychiatric ward for an autistic than torture. The drugs, the staff, the lights, heat. The manhandling, constant supervision and automatic disbelief of every word uttered by patients, the alarms and the screams. I remember.
