1/3 of all mental health 'treatments' in England involve no human interaction at all. Patients are rather offered apps, web-based interventions & self-guided CBT online courses, instead of face-to-face talking therapy.... As if more bots are what we need.

Great to see today the evidence of how the self harm pathway once implemented & embedded resulted in significant reduction in self harm incidentβs π@DrGeorgiaKonsta@ELAINESWIFT8
Book onto the next research forum, hosted by @LJMU_MHN_Soc here: jmsu.co.uk/groups/mental-heaβ¦@LeilaSharda will be talking about her research around care received by people with βcomplexβ mental health needs within acute general hospital wards.
The ladies on the ward today came together and designed book marks and pictures for each other with kind words to describe that person with. They plan to look back during challenging times to remind themselves of how amazing they are β€οΈ @Hope_rec22@HollyRiches@DrGeorgiaKonsta
They are in this often cruel world. Reach in and just be there. Reach in because those in immeasurable internal pain quite often do not have the ability to reach out. So next time you hear yourself saying to someone βif you need me just reach outβ stop yourself and reach in. 4/
