@MaryButlerTD Did it include your cells for the crime of being unwell? Or your male nurses laughingly stripping a rape survivor naked, a rape survivor who they knew had been attacked by a male nurse? And patient being so thirsty in the cell that they were reduced to drinking their urine?
People are rightly horrified at these conditions, but what most people are unaware of is that mental hospital cells are much worse than this. No blankets, no clothes, no water, no food, nothing to distract from the terror. @MaryButlerTD
Milo, a gentle rescue dog from South Africa, has been sentenced to 120 days of quarantine in this UK facility. Standard procedure for a simple microchip malfunction, despite being fully vaccinated and healthy.
No walks, no comfort, no adequate shelter. What would you do if this was your pet? Milo is not the only one.
Iβm calling on DEFRA to do the right thing here: free Milo, fix this awful facility, and review the quarantine rules.
Animal cruelty is never acceptable πΆπ’πΎ
What is the difference between an attempted rapist nurse forcibly pulling clothes off a woman & laughing male nurses holding down & stripping the same crying woman naked and then locking her terrified in a cell?

During my last psych ward stay, I revealed to the staff serious sexual assaults by a NHS male nurse (who since has been questioned & may face charges)..so for kicks, they let male nurses laughingly assault me & then lock me a cell. @gardainfo & @MaryButlerTD don't want to know.
I am a doctor.
But I'm also a patient.
A mental health patient.
Twice a day, I am reminded of that.
There should not be shame or stigma.
But there is.
So here is a reminder that it's OK to be human.

@forkan_orla@IrishTimes At the time I repeatedly attempted to report it to the police (over the phone & in person). They did not believe me and lied about sending out police to the hospital (they never did).
Working on my first jointed bunny. She's a little wonky, but I'm grateful to be able to sew again after a year of #AutisticBurnOut. #sewing#AutisticJoy
I've been forced to mask for so long (starting as a toddler when a Dr labeled my undiagnosed #Autism as "bad behaviour" & urged more punishment), that I am unable to drop the mask.
These are the types of monsters @MaryButlerTD allows in her hospitals. He may have been one of the men who sexually assaulted me. @hse_ymh permits male staff to pin down female patients, to laughingly strip them naked, & to locked them naked & terrified in cold cells.
