Good to hear about plans for overdose prevention facilities in Teesside. People struggling with addiction should be safe and not at risk of prosecution. BBC North East @petermit @smiturt

Isolation perpetuates addiction. If you’re angry about the impact of addiction on society, don’t have it in for the addict - otherwise you’re basically promoting addiction. Compassion is addiction’s kryptonite. Use it wisely.

On #WMHD2019 we’re demanding that more awareness is raised about the reality of addiction as new research by @ngi_solutions and QuMind shows that 1 in 3 people believe addicts ‘brought it on themselves’ This couldn’t be further from the truth roadtorecoverytrust.org.uk/blog/2019/10/1…

Thanks for sharing this important research. Stigma needs to end.
