A big thank you to Dr Kelly for providing information and research to teach us how we can approach #stigma and allow more people to feel able to access treatment.

I agree with the term 'nurses eat their young'. Fresh ideas and enthusiasm can be swallowed by culture. Whilst there are many reasons for this, nurses still need to look inward when asked about retention issues. My thoughts here: https://t.co/Cgjovpjwrb

TW: Rape

There’s a tweet I just saw about sex education. A father had been raping his daughter and she didn’t realize it was wrong until they taught her about it in her sex education class.

Then there are adults busy fighting for there to be no sex education in schools.
