Why might 26% of young women screen as having a 'personality disorder'. Could it be cos 62% experience sexual harassment, bullying, or verbal abuse? Because domestic abuse rates have never been higher in teen relationships? Because the precarity of doing girl right now..

Everything they are doing to the NHS, they did to British Rail. Underfunded it, exhausted the service, got the public angry, and then said privatisation is the solution. Please RT if you can see what is going on.

Let me be clear here: removing care coordination will be deadly. I've been around severe mental illness literally all my life. Relatives. My own. My patients. When one unravels, careco has a very particular, essential function of continuity.

One of the most rewarding things I'm privileged to do are school careers days. In so many ways I get to say: I have such a cool and rewarding job.. but you definitely can do it, or anything else you're interested in! #volunteering #CBT #therapy

As a disabled person and a consultant clinical psychologist, I demand an end to the inhumane benefits system that makes people suicidal. We need a new politics of uplift, starting with stopping the divisive rhetoric between those in work and those not. #DisabledPeopleDemand 🪧💜

“People generally understate their own level of disability.” This is SO TRUE. I’ve done a lot of forms with people over more than a decade and I’ve never met any who don’t underestimate their disability.

They don’t. Believe me. Why do you talk such utter shite? And why are you morphing into a sovereign individual anarcho-capitalist narcissist with fascist leanings? Some journey you’ve been on.

They are traumatic and humiliating, with long lasting effects such as anxiety, depression and lower educational attainment.' 🗣️ Our Stephen Walcott on why we're calling for an immediate end to the strip search of children.

If you feel like giving up, please remember the reason why you held on for so long. It may take bravery for you to talk and to ask for help, but please do it. Please hold on and you will make it through. #WorldSuicidePreventionDay #WSPD #SuicidePrevention #WSPD24

I don’t like this trend to not people help if they’ve had ‘a lot of help before’. That’s not really how mental ill health works. Having ‘a lot of help before’ is often an indicator of needing ‘a lot of help’.

Professionals often 'diagnose' BPD within minutes, driven by a 'hunch' rooted in centuries of misogyny. A deadly ignorance of autistic masking has misdiagnosed and trapped countless autistic people in this baggy, over-inclusive character assassination #AutismNotPD #ActuallyAutism

My special love to everyone who is in hospital or rehab over the Christmas period and new year. You’ll be in heart and mind tomorrow in a ‘been there, done that’ non-intrusive way xx

Dr Jay Watts Women suffering from abuse present as emotional. When a woman has told you she’s being abused believe her. Don’t stigmatise her with a label, don’t question her veracity to hide failures in the system. She’s not an experiment, so many professionals need reminding of this.

Empty words cannot hide the truth: your government is complicit in genocide. We are an unstoppable movement for peace, for justice and for Palestine — and we are never, ever going away.

It is over for the genocide deniers. Even the BBC is now splashing on the UN commission of inquiry concluding that Israel has committed genocide. Those who supported Israel's onslaught: You backed a genocide. You will never scrub the shame away.
