Jolly good. None of this "but I'm so misunderstood" whinging tactic adopted by some as the default strategy when they are called to account....
I listened to a little bit but don't manage audio very well...... Like @Peter Trewhitt, I am loathe to criticise something which is miles better...
Is there anyone in a hospital who isn't fatigued? Even when you're just visiting time seems to pass differently in hospitals. Long before I had...
From the blog - during the LP the author was told " if you concentrate on your symptoms all the time, then you're going to keep having them. "...
Sometimes it really.does look to me as though the NHS is being managed to fail. Lots of time and energy for reorganising things so they aren't...
I think a lot of adult patients do too. Especially when many of us have had doctor's words put in our mouths - sometimes by docs with the very...
When pacing was explained to me I was told resting is exactly that resting, not watching TV, flicking through a magazine, reading or listening to...
She was very clear a phone call.wasn't forthcoming by the end of the conversation. It was also made clear that if she was that disinterested in...
Yeah, I would say so from my experience. I had someone with depression who wanted me to phone them and make sure they got out of bed to go for a...

I wonder how she would feel if she had been sent for IAPT instead of finding herself in front of a doctor who could treat her? Chances are that's...
If I recall correctly VES called for a unified approach & not necessarily a united one. I think I unified approach is probably the best we can...
I completely agree. Stating something as though there is high quality evidence for it where there isn't does us no favours.
Maybe, junior acolytes. People who want an easy ride on the coattails of the more successful "mentor". Those who want to think & analyse for...
From my perspective these studies when looked at as a whole have one extremely effective purpose. They demonstrate that some people are...
The other issue they're ignoring is that even when the young adult eventually appears to more or less fully recover there is a possibility that...
I was discussing what LP was with IM today. I'd mentioned it before and he knew what I thought of it but didn't really know what it was. Just...
I don't doubt that psychiatry has been beneficial to some, I also don't doubt the need for sectioning on occasion. As @Jonathan Edwards points...
Rather that than sectioned, kept in a wholly unsuitable environment and given "treatment" guaranteed to make matters worse. Sadly, sometimes...
