Many autistic people are told that they have social anxiety, but what they really have is a rational and legitimate fear of being treated badly by others, who may neglect their needs or judge them for their differences both of which have happened to them a million times before.

Finally plucked up the courage This afternoon to take the Methotrexate ive been prescribed, currently feeling a bit washed out, but currently managing ok, let's hope the night goes ok & I get to take my Folic acid and things work out ok #invisabledisability@arthritisukorg#NHS
@johnpringdns R.I.P David , They know exactly how people with #invisabledisability react especially like myself, we don't like change & create routine & stick to schedules & if things are not rectified it is devastating for #MentalHealthMatters#patientsafety & these are the consequences #NHS

Took my 11-year-old daughter to a checkup today.
The nurse asked me to step out of the room.
I politely said no.
She said, "It's only for a moment."
I replied:
"My husband and I don't leave our children alone with anyone, including medical providers. Anything you need to say can be said with me here."
She looked annoyed and left.
The part that stuck with me?
As soon as she walked out, my daughter thanked me for staying.
Her eyes got huge the moment the nurse asked me to leave.
Maybe I'm overprotective.
But I'd rather be present and unnecessary than absent and regret it.

This good boy is not letting anything happen to the baby. Peak loyalty right here!
Who needs parents when you have a dog like this? 😂

American corporations are quietly taking control of our #NHS, hidden behind the #NHS logo.
Profit will be maximised by denial of care.

Just seen a 'contract' issued by a #NHS team to a child with #T1Diabetes- that to keep their Insulin Pump- you must have 70% Time In Range.
Firstly? It's illegal to do so
Secondly? That's not even clinically logical
Importantly? Healthcare is about humanity
For clarity- this is NOT an ask from @NHSEngland
Just a reminder -at this stage.
Please don't do silly things.
Also...am still around.
Thanks.

NHS MANAGER TOLD HER WHISTLEBLOWERS GO MISSING OVERNIGHT
Totally normal stuff from a world-class health service.
Victoria Rixon @Victoria_Rixon spent six and a half years as an NHS midwife. She watched labour wards run on two members of staff. She watched colleagues go 12.5 hour shifts without food, water, or a toilet break, each responsible for up to 20 patients at once. She watched a woman labour alone for ten hours behind a curtain with no care whatsoever. The baby needed emergency resuscitation.
She reported what she saw. Because that is literally what the @NHS told her to do during induction.
What happened next is a classic in how Britain's most trusted institution handles inconvenient truths.
She was falsely accused of being responsible for the death of a baby.
Her employer sent a cease and desist letter after her exit interview.
And a member of NHS management delivered her a friendly warning:
'whistleblowers go missing overnight'
An NHS manager. Said that. Out loud. To a midwife who raised patient safety concerns.
On 9 April 2024, Victoria handed back her Nursing and Midwifery Council @nmcnews registration and walked away from the career she had trained four years for and loved every day of.
Because she says the institution she worked for was actively harming the women and babies in its care and punishing anyone who said so.
She is still speaking publicly. She is still being harassed. The NMC @nmcnews, NHS England @NHSEngland, and the Royal College of Midwives @MidwivesRCM have had inquiry after inquiry, report after report, and the wards are still dangerously short staffed.
But sure. The system is fine. It just needs another review.
