When people speak truth to power, they will usually be written off as emotionally reactive. #TraumaTherapistRants

Honestly can't believe the outpouring of love here.I hope this can be a reminder to anyone needing it-however lonely you feel,there's such a lot of goodness in people out there still. When so many are struggling right now,let this be testament to finding kindness anywhere we can.

Mental health services commonly accuse pts of "playing games", but what they don't seem to appreciate is they force us to play the game they have set up. I don't like to lie, but today I was threatened into lying to services, bc the ONLY option was "tell us you are ok or these 1/

The irony of the pm resigning on the day the IICSA report comes out, exactly replicates the dynamics of abuse: the adults battling over power & ignoring the children crying in the corner

How about a..'Sorry'..? No? I won't be convinced until he's truly gone..And how much can we really actually hope for right now? It doesn't seem dark,it is dark. I'm not sure who he thinks he got through the pandemic or whose future is going to be #golden? #Clownfall #BorisJohnson
Such an excellent and important article on the MH capacity act and how dangerously it's being used in practice with those struggling with suicidality... Well worth a read

This needs hearing. By many and especially by MH professionals.
The shame and silence of #csa compound trauma, and many find themselves negotiating a new landscape: the mental health system. My story: @BBCRadio4 The Last Taboo, is available now on BBC Sounds bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000zkq…

After dazzling display the bluebells lose their shine And towards the end of May they're running out of time, So as they say goodbye the season's wheel turns on But I know that something else will come, and the bluebells - they aren't gone - for Mumma 💙 #lifeanddeath #poetry

Perhaps don't say 'I struggle with my mental health' if you want to build an initial connection. Maybe say, I often feel 'lost' or 'lonely' or 'hopeless' or 'misunderstood' etc. In my experience attachment goes deeper when we use language that expresses rather than classifies us.

Seen a lot of tweets celebrating and noticing the unfurling ferns recently... Reminded me of this I wrote last year so thought I post it up... Missing the outdoors so much at the moment, so I'm loving the Twitter #nature shares.. #poem #writing #naturewriting #poetry #spring
