Fab cake made by Rachel on Ribblemere MBU today for a mum’s birthday! Action on Postpartum Psychosis

This is at the heart of what has led to the maternity scandals of the last 3 decades, that clinicians find it unacceptable that women might ask to for a caesarean if they knew about the risks of planned vaginal birth. In other words, that women might exercise their own judgement.

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our wonderful team. Take a look at the Change Talks Educator position here > lscft.nhs.uk/vacancies#!/jo… Naomi O’Grady Mindset By Dave Any questions, give me message!

We are keen to encourage more women from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic communities to access information about postpartum psychosis.

New mum seems strange? Seek help.

It could be postpartum psychosis, a treatable medical emergency.

Help make an urgent appointment with their doctor, midwife, health visitor or call 111. If you think there is imminent danger, call 999. With help they will recover.

I really think there has been a lot of awareness raised about low mood and anxiety the last few years. Is it not time we moved on to raising awareness and sharing lived experience from people with more severe mental illness? We are constantly left out of these conversations.

Looking after one’s “mental health” doesn’t mean it can prevent a mental illness from happening.

Very grateful for the opportunity to present at The Mental Health in the Workplace Conference next week.

Thankyou to Rory Stewart & ALASTAIR CAMPBELL for discussing birth trauma on The Rest Is Politics. It means a lot to have this important issue raised by you both. Our Parliamentary inquiry will report tomorrow to the Government with recommendations on how to improve maternity services.

To all our nursing colleagues Lancashire & South Cumbria NHS Foundation Trust enjoy your day, reflect on the huge impact you make daily, in whatever role you have within the Trust. Thank you! #InternationalNursesDay

“I am the expert of me”

If you’re in London Bridge go visit the Science Gallery “Experts by Experience: Who Knows Best?” exhibition with King's College London “If research is going to be authentic the only way to do that is to involve people”

Absolutely agree and this can only be achieved by listening to people with a lived experience and their families and networks #peersupport #opendialogue
