@anna_rebowska Additionally, “modern life” is pushing people into crisis through burnout etc and therefore into services and Dx where someone may not have come into contact with services previously as functionally doing okay. That’s not overDx it’s bio-social interactions.

Clinical psychology also has a major class problem, yet almost nobody is willing/wants to talk about it. I’ve struggled to find allies in pushing for better representation. Hoping to be working on something soon.

@Shrink_at_Large That’s quite the headline, Jay. 1) this wasn’t DBT, which is hard to get access to like many psych therapies. It was a watered down skills group in 2) a non-clinical pop (terrible idea). Should we give a 1/5 dose of amoxicillin to all kids and conclude “antibiotics are damaging”.

It’s far more complicated than this, late Dx ASD often comes about because someone happens to ask the right questions when a person is in crisis, it may seem like interpreting trauma as ASD but a proper Fx is telling where ASD and trauma intersect.

Narrative approaches with parents of children with ASD/LD is so incredibly useful. I’ve found “adapted” (cause little is created for kids with LD 😔) storying / documenting to be some of the most meaningful work I’ve been involved in. It creates something a PBS plan never can.

So sorry to hear this shocking news, I’d got to know Ben over the past year through twitter and class clinpsy webinars, deepest condolences to his friends and family.

It’s widely assumed that suicidal men do not ask for help. We found that in 67% of those who died, there had been contact in previous 3m with frontline services, 38% in final week. Our new report @NCISH_UK . Lead researcher @Cathy2778

I’d love to see some data on most represented DClinPsy course on twitter, both trainees and alumni. Don’t know if representation on twitter is a good or bad thing tho? 😂

Because an important part of #ClinicalPsychology is observing the child without actually looking at them. Certainly explains why the giant ADHD poster has a ? on it. And that abacus is a key tool in our assessments! #BadStockPhotosOfMyJob

@tylerblack32 Some seem rather too excited about these results. DBT is a life saver for some people who are incredibly unwell who’ve been through other therapies and endless med changes AND there is no basis for a watered down version in a non-clinical pop. Maybe hold the dialectic? 😉

Anyone else find themselves less psyched about end of lockdown compared to last year? Not cause of COVID anxiety but more like what Freud said about the idea of hopes and dreams that drag on too long become poisoned? The imagined life becomes tainted the more it’s unrealised?

@SameiHuda @becomingethical @KScior @Rufusmay This is something multiple medical and nursing colleges agree with, one can be “pro-vaccine” and “anti-mandate” - the first is about evidence, the second is about ethics and politics.
