@MentalHealthCop I'm old and retired, but well. Glad to see you're still bothering social media with sharply observed comments.

[Masked AMHP (Retd.) @MaskedAMHP]

Szasz claimed there was no such thing as mental illness, but was still happy to treat people with mental illness.

[Michael Brown 🌍 @MentalHealthCop]

It's day one of the inquiry and I'm already furious to hear how such non-legal considerations influenced decisions about serious offences prior to the 2023 killings.

It's almost as if the DR and the police hadn't read the 2019 CPS guidance on suspects and defendants, isn't it?!

[Femi @Femi_sorry]

@GoodwinMJ You're literally a white supremacist.

You argued that black and brown people are less British.

And you regularly spread fear about a "shrinking white population".... Which is a message of violence against black & brown people.

And give money to a nearly trillionaire fascist? No thanks.

There may be a time in the future when AI intelligences may require a formal assessment under an (extensively amended MHA) (after all they do exhibit "hallucinations"), but I will thankfully be long dead by then. (Gives me an idea for a future blog).

[Masked AMHP (Retd.) @MaskedAMHP]

I may be old fashioned, but it frankly sounds like a terrible idea. AI is not sentient, has no human emotions, and cannot help in any way in assessing what's going on in real life in a formal MHA assessment. I think the need for real AMHPs is going to continue for many years.

@MaskedAMHP Good evening, current AMHP here....would like to know your views on AMHPS now using A.I to write reports and rationales for MHA assessments. Seems prevalent now...my view is that it may deskill and create issues down the line...such as coroners court etc.

Canada's got a nation on its border that's controlled by Russia.

[Tony Penson @PensonTony51459]

@_MAGA_NEWS_ America cannot have a Nation that is on it's border, controlled by China.

I've heard there's a new miniaturised Alexa that you can insert into your nostril.

It's called a snot speaker.

[Masked AMHP (Retd.) @MaskedAMHP]

I retired from being a MH social worker 5 years ago, but I still have dreams about it.😟

[Dr Ju @juliaisobela]

I woke up in a cold sweat last night because I was having a nightmare that I was writing discharge summaries

Is this FY1 life 🥲

@Channel4News Well fancy that.

@Rainmaker1973 Why would anyone in the UK want to get to a Fascist state quicker?

[Masked AMHP (Retd.) @MaskedAMHP]

@ZiaYusufUK Does that include paid up Tory members?

[Masked AMHP (Retd.) @MaskedAMHP]

@Glinner @punishedpants Really, Graham? Evidence, please. Like from court records.

[Masked AMHP (Retd.) @MaskedAMHP]

@ChristineMcPh15 Yes, I'm retired but still in BASW and also in the MH Thematic group. I could raise it at the next meeting which isn't for a couple of months.

[Masked AMHP (Retd.) @MaskedAMHP]

The Mental Health Act 2025 was enacted on 18.12.25. The Act amends the MHA 1983, which means that the amended Act will still be known as the Mental Health Act 1983. This is the link to the MHA 2025:

[Masked AMHP (Retd.) @MaskedAMHP]

@ChristineMcPh15 As far as I am aware, it will only be interpretation and guidance on the amendments. I can't off the top of my head say whether people with hearing impairment are included in the new Act. If you're a member of BASW you could ask the Mental Health Thematic Group.
