Was an RMN. Left the profession due to disillusionment of the mental health system as a whole. Too analytical for my own good. Enjoy researching genealogy.

mrs. wind up bird Like, as soon as I read a therapist refer to their style as 'warm,' I automatically think they're insincere and full of shit. I know that's my own problem and not fair, but I can't deal with 'warm.'

ECT saves lives, pass it on, and let’s wish well to those who have benefited from it rather than shame them.
People like Jan Giles are to be congratulated.

It is unethical to direct vulnerable people to unproven therapies.
It makes money for the therapist, while leading the patient further away from evidence-based effective treatments.

Some of us were campaigning against this script a few years back. It's back with a vengeance. Please call it out:

- work is not a therapy or cure
- bad work makes mental health worse
-many will never work
- structure can be great so re-open day centres
- DWP pressure is deadly

The anti-psychiatry fringe would appear to prefer to let women suffer from a debilitating and often fatal mental illness than to support those who need evidence based treatment.

The Ripon Grammar School Whistleblower(@riponWB) 's Twitter Profile Photo

I am a whistleblower. I have been abused, vilified and even arrested for reporting serious safeguarding negligence at Ripon Grammar School. Read the truth about the lies and cover up by the school and North Yorkshire County Council.

Samei Huda There is a religiosity about some anti-psychs that seems aligned with the belief in a spiritual mind, rather than a biologically based brain. To dismiss humanity from all physical illness, whether mental or physical, is a mystery to anyone who is not within their sacred sanctum.

With all the brouhaha recently about who can and cannot call themselves a psychotherapist, remember that anyone at all can use the title ‘psychotherapist’, whether they’ve done zero training, a flimsy weekend course, or a year or two of training. Major red flag area🚩

If there was a proper complex trauma pathway, a proper autism and adhd pathway, a proper bipolar pathway and a proper PMDD pathway, there would be no need to debate what to rename BPD because no one would be left unserved.

Incredible to read the responses and see just how many are thankful that ECT exists. It is imperfect, but clearly helps people in severe depression or mania.

The 'anti-ECT' crowd would benefit from reviewing what the majority are saying here.

- re the image here, the still on the right is a fictionalised representation of ECT from decades ago. Patients ARE NOT awake. It is performed under general anesthetic. If you want to educate yourself more:

ECT, done under anesthetic for a long time now, has incredible efficiency in severe depression and mania when all else has failed. Yes, it can cause memory loss, but the benefits often outweigh the drawbacks. We need to educate the public more on this.
