“She was resilient, but resilience alone cannot counter the isolation & depression that come from the repeated hits of inflexible rotas & hostile working environments.” Deeply moving from Jonathan Phillips on Lauren, his junior doctor daughter’s suicide. theguardian.com/society/2019/o…

#MomsNeedToKnow that perinatal mental health problems are common, can be serious, are not your fault, don’t mean you’re a bad mum, that it’s common to fake being ok when your crumbling inside. And that the darkness can pass, that you can enjoy your baby and thrive.

"I was told I wasn't allowed to ask him any questions, which is a really good sign this was a PR stunt. People who work in this hospital know the reality of cuts. They were all really angry." This med student totally nails @borisjohnson's latest stunt 👏 mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…

The worst day at work after nearly 20years within the NHS. Emergency care is completely broken and in free-fall, as are the staff. My heart goes out to our poor poor patients, today I couldn’t look them in the eye. #weareNOTok Royal College of Emergency Medicine

You just can't make this up.

Just finished night shift, covering acute admissions At start of the shift both RESUS & ITU were full We ran out CPAP (ventilation) machines halfway through shift Really infuriates me there’s people here with big platforms downplaying this, as if this is some exaggerated joke

Todays scrubs shrapnel. This is not normal jobbing geriatric medicine. It is so much worse than the first wave. And our spirits are breaking. Please stay home. Please. #maskfacespace

You don’t get to stoke the fire at the beginning of the tournament by labelling our anti-racism message as ‘Gesture Politics’ & then pretend to be disgusted when the very thing we’re campaigning against, happens.

Awesome day Pennywell Farm as always and I didn’t lose any of the kids in my care 👍🏼

"We need a fully funded plan for mental-health services, backed by a long-term workforce plan, as the country comes to terms with the biggest hit to its mental health in generations." Adrian James on behalf of Royal College of Psychiatrists bbc.co.uk/news/health-60…
