We are delighted to announce our 2024 Annual Debate:
How Can Sociology Engage with the Major Challenges of our Time?
As wars rage and the climate crisis looms, what can sociology offer? Four eminent sociologists will tackle this question tinyurl.com/5n7cxbs9 Katherine Twamley
We are recruiting the final few participants for this online study evaluating a new 3 session therapy to address intrusive and distressing thoughts and images after #suicide #bereavement . This represents a collaboration between UCL Psych & Lang Sci UCL Psychiatry Imperial Psychiatry Support After Suicide Partnership
My final thought - we need to learn the lessons we can and on future, if we are faced with a need to contain such a threat again, keep schools open as a priority and #playfirst Prof Sam Cartwright-Hatton. & even now, continue to prioritise overcoming loneliness AND improve access to mh help
(2) loneliness increased e.g. we can see this from OxWell Study data from 2020 thanks Mina Fazel Emma Soneson Galit.Geulayov who found more than 1/3 felt more lonely during lockdown pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36124048/
And using cospace study data thanks Cathy Creswell 💙 Polly Waite 💙 , we also examined loneliness in cyp in uk in early stages of pandemic finding that young people who were more lonely also had more mh symptoms sciencedirect.com/science/articl… thanks Eoin McElroy Dr Bettina Moltrecht on this one!
Then we published specifically on papers from young people with pre existing mh problems - in same pattern bpspsychub.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bj… BPS Journals Dr Emily Hards led this one
Back then, we Nina Higson-Sweeney Shirley Reynolds Roz Dr Eleanor Chatburn et al rapidly reviewed the literature to see what was already known about how social isolation and loneliness impact mh in cyp - published v quickly thanks to JAACAP jaacap.org/article/S0890-…
