New suicide figures have been published by @ONS: 5,738 suicides were registered for England in 2025. 75% were in men. 1 in 65 men die by suicide. And in the details: a politically sensitive concern, a small encouragement & an important point no media have mentioned. Short 🧵

Suicide has many causes but there are often common factors: humiliation, a sense of injustice, of being trapped. I see people on here saying - harshly - that Jason Arday chose to end his life but suicide occurs when people feel they have no choices left. 1/8

I work as a peer educator here in Houston. I think so much of recovering from whatever we've experienced is about finding community and caring, thoughtful, nonjudgmental relationships. #BPDChat

Thanks, Sue. I think that's an excellent topic. Since it's the last chat, I'd love to hear what people think and also love to hear from anyone who has been on the chat in the past and has thoughts about what the chat has meant to them. #BPDChat

COUNTDOWN TO WINTERBOURNE DAY 2: 📈THE 152% SURGE The numbers the Government wants to ignore are staggering. Since 2015, the detention of autistic people without a learning disability has shot up by 152%. 🚨 This isn't progress; it's a crisis. While the Government stalls on Mental Health Act reforms, the system is actively expanding. They've added a "switch on" clause that holds our rights hostage until they fund community support—support they haven't even defined yet. 🔒 Their delay is our trauma. We are counting down to May 31st to demand the Government stop the surge and start the support. 🗣️ #StopTheSurge #AutismAdvocacy #MentalHealthAct #Winterbourne15 #NothingHasChanged

Enough of the bullshit, enough of the rhetoric, enough of the fiddling around the edges, enough of rearranging the deckchairs, enough of pointless commissions and even more pointless reports, enough of the lying, enough of the deceit, enough of the gaslighting, enough of the masquerade, enough of the pretending it's time for govt to get a grip, to show leadership, to show determination, to do the right thing, to act. It's time to put the water industry back into public ownership and the time to do that is now. But have they got the balls?!

“The DWP told NatCen not to include any discussion of the figures showing how many ESA claimants had tried to take their own lives, or how many of them had had thoughts of suicide. And when @NatCen passed its completed report to DWP, there was no mention of those figures“. What!!

📢 Stigma around people in poverty, benefits and welfare is key to understanding why poverty is still deemed acceptable in a country as wealthy as the UK. Read our recent report on stigma below: jrf.org.uk/stigma-power-and-…

Poverty stigma: a glue that holds poverty in place

Poverty stigma exacerbates shamefully high rates of poverty in the UK. It can affect health as much as trying to survive on a low income. How do we combat it?

“It felt like this invisible person was following me. It became really frightening and I got really unwell. I didn't feel safe” We spoke to the BBC about why we are calling for an end to Oxevision, CCTV and similar systems in psychiatric ward bedrooms bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cq8k…

Call for Oxevision cameras to be banned in mental health patients' bedrooms

Former mental health patients are worried camera surveillance is being used without explicit consent.
