'Ground-breaking new book - or deeply flawed analysis of antipsychiatry?' madintheuk.com/2024/04/empire…
No doubt we'll be picking up the drinks bill.. Rishi Sunak invites Tory MPs for drinks during the Rwanda vote... This is beyond the Mad Hatter's Tea Party now. Every penny going to this illegal and pointless Rwanda scheme is a penny not going to people who need the money

Stunning & important decision from the High Court, dismissing application to imprison Trudi for contempt, for informing juries they have a right to acquit a Defendant on their conscience. This is the key quote from the judgement strongly upholding our ancient right of jury equity

LETTER *We are ashamed of the role psychology has played *These were psychology-led services. *BPS has failed to produce guidelines for clinicians working with young people *BPS forced into making an official response now minimises its own role theguardian.com/theobserver/co…
If people reach a certain level of distress/impairment (which can be easily measured) they should be entitled to support, without having that impairment first medicalised, pathologised, depoliticised & stigmatised. Being medicalised shouldn't be a precondition for receiving care.
From the government whose greatest hits include the meteoric rise in food bank use, fuel poverty, kids too cold & hungry to learn, falling life expectancy & the deliberate destruction of the NHS. Victim blaming & pure, naked cruelty. For shame, @RishiSunak.
There is no such thing as “a sick note culture.” There is a record high NHS waiting list, crippling housing costs, widespread food poverty, stagnant wages and inadequate benefit rates, a broken social care system, dire mental health services, and closed Sure Start centres.
It's obvious that @RishiSunak is misusing legit critiques of over-medicalisation to try & advance his agenda of cutting costs & denying the structural determinants distress/disability. Such suffering & its social causes are very real. He's deflecting from what to do about that.
"Awareness of" assumes an objective thing 'out there' that such an awareness would be an awareness of. That isn't there (i.e. no biomarkers/tests etc.), Rather, all psych. Dxs are interpretations of ambiguous, multiply explainable data, which is precisely ripe for the latter.

Some doctors enjoy inducing Akathisia - a terrible painful restlessness so extreme that it drives many to suicide; a serious additional harmful effect of starting, changing dose, and withdrawing from most psychiatric meds - to people they don't like for *fun*.

My Mum was put on ‘anti psychotics’ aged 90 when discharged from hospital (broken shoulder) to her care home, without being told! When I looked at her chart and challenged it I was told ‘We put all the old dears on them when they leave. Helps with transition’

🚨 NEW: A Tory donor responsible for funding Rishi Sunak's private jet travel has had £14.3m of his assets frozen following claims of fraud [@theipaper]
Looking forward to the Conservative party questioning these housing transactions ⬇️ 🧵 Here’s the This £7.25m Berkshire stately home bought in July 2020 by Zoe Ley. Ley made £20m brokering a VIP PPE deal alongside former Tory MP Brooks Newmark ➡️goodlawproject.org/broker-bought-…
It’s hard to shake the sense that the Tory Govt are full of depraved, sexually deviant, coke snorting, adulterating, porn watching, embezzlers who don’t do any work, rarely turn up to parliament and generally are just Living it Large on the public purse.
Yes, sociopolitical factors explain worsening youth mental health, but so too does the ever growing prevalence of demoralising & pessimistic pathologising narratives that reframe their social suffering as pointing to something disordered within them.
🎉 Congratulations to Diana Parkes, co-founder of the Joanna Simpson Foundation, who received her CBE today at Windsor Castle for her services to vulnerable children suffering from domestic abuse and domestic homicide. Diana received her CBE from The Princess Royal.
The study bolsters the arguments for social, environmental, and trauma-based frameworks in understanding psychosis and ‘severe mental illness.’ It offers a compelling alternative to genetic and neurobiological explanations, often dominating psychiatric discourse.

The right took power Then shat the bed and ruined the country Now they’re blaming anyone else for their failures There is no woke, no lefty establishment, no maligned culture It’s just failures failing to admit their failures
@AlinaV_Psy @JoshuaMIreland I can tell you, criticizing things that deserve being criticized is not funny. I do it out of responsibility. It's damaging for my career.
The state of this. I despair…
This can’t be real life!! It just can’t be.. “ Do u want Colombia university to be cursed by God”
For Sunak, it probably is, which is where we are at now that the problem of over-medicalisation has been pushed into the right's hands. Perhaps if people listened to the left-wing critique & protest, we wouldn't be in a place of having to debate the right-wing's solution.
Cc @RishiSunak Explain, without lies, how "overmedicalising every day life" is not a reframing of "stop complaining that we made you poor and unwell."
I think what we're learning is that the so-called "mental health crisis" can be pulled apart and analysed in so many philosophical, sociological, and medical directions. It's all very interesting, but words have massive implications for political policy. We need to tread lightly.
@Philosophy_ATM That is the practical alternative. @peterkinderman has also suggested the use of something like v-codes. I'm not sure what it is you are looking for that wouldn't be covered by that.
Never mind us tax avoiders and fraudsters who cost you billions and billions… Let’s go after the sick and disabled to claw back some money. Vile bastards.
If people reach a certain level of distress/impairment (which can be easily measured) they should be entitled to support, without having that impairment first medicalised, pathologised, depoliticised & stigmatised. Being medicalised shouldn't be a precondition for receiving care.
From the government whose greatest hits include the meteoric rise in food bank use, fuel poverty, kids too cold & hungry to learn, falling life expectancy & the deliberate destruction of the NHS. Victim blaming & pure, naked cruelty. For shame, @RishiSunak.
@SkyNews Getting rid of the Tories would do wonders for the nation’s mental health
There is no such thing as “a sick note culture.” There is a record high NHS waiting list, crippling housing costs, widespread food poverty, stagnant wages and inadequate benefit rates, a broken social care system, dire mental health services, and closed Sure Start centres.
It's obvious that @RishiSunak is misusing legit critiques of over-medicalisation to try & advance his agenda of cutting costs & denying the structural determinants distress/disability. Such suffering & its social causes are very real. He's deflecting from what to do about that.
"Awareness of" assumes an objective thing 'out there' that such an awareness would be an awareness of. That isn't there (i.e. no biomarkers/tests etc.), Rather, all psych. Dxs are interpretations of ambiguous, multiply explainable data, which is precisely ripe for the latter.
Surely it’s less an ‘increased public awareness' of a neurodivergent/psych condition that leads to higher diagnostic rates, and more an increased public tendency to reframe experience in terms of such conditions that leads to higher diagnostic rates.
Yes, sociopolitical factors explain worsening youth mental health, but so too does the ever growing prevalence of demoralising & pessimistic pathologising narratives that reframe their social suffering as pointing to something disordered within them.
🎉 Congratulations to Diana Parkes, co-founder of the Joanna Simpson Foundation, who received her CBE today at Windsor Castle for her services to vulnerable children suffering from domestic abuse and domestic homicide. Diana received her CBE from The Princess Royal.
@stopharmingus @eliotmuir The reality is so bleak, rampant diagnostic inflation & medicalization of normal life, rampant prescription of toxic dependence-causing psych Rx to a huge % of the population, including kids, that we have to struggle for improvement at the margins, things like informed consent.
@askdheeraj @ReadReadj What an incredibly high-handed perspective. I imagine quite a few of us "surround" ourselves with the care providers that are available and within our means.
Sedated @JDaviesPhD is brilliant. As so often with good books it puts into words questions that you have half formulated in yr own head but have neither skill nor knowledge to articulate. V clear and lively writing that even I (no scientific background) could easily follow.
J'ai pris un arrêté du Bourgmestre pour interdire l'événement "National Conservatism Conference" pour garantir la sécurité publique. A Etterbeek, à Bruxelles Ville et à Saint-Josse, l'extrême-droite n'est pas la bienvenue.
