Mr. T. on how he chose his name: I think about my father being called "boy", my uncle being called "boy", my brother, coming back from Vietnam and being called "boy".

So I questioned myself:

"What does a black man have to do before he's given respect as a man?"

So when I was 18 years old, when I was old enough to fight and die for my country, old enough to drink, old enough to vote, I said I was old enough to be called a man.

I self-ordained myself Mr. T, so the first word out of everybody's mouth is "Mr.""

@DrGrinzi @RACGP Well said Paul, no GP I know would decline to offer evidence based life saving PBS listed medicine for any other chronic disease

“People first: stop stigma and discrimination, strengthen prevention”

Let's work together to combat stigma & discrimination against people who use drugs.

Drug addiction isn't a choice. #WorldDrugDay

Unelected Prime Minister Billionaire Rishi Sunak whose wife was avoiding tax with her non dom status.....yeah sure "we" are going to get through it

How about the £21 billion in fraud while you were Chancellor? How about your hedge fund mates stopping being offshore to dodge tax?

With #DryJuly around the corner, you may also be thinking about giving up #alcohol.
If you wish to, but can't stop, speak to your GP or see @CleanSlateCl about getting some help.

[Dr Paul Grinzi (🦋DrGrinzi) @DrGrinzi]

Looking forward to discussing how Substance Use and Comorbidities relate, next week.
Focusing on how GPs (and others) can approach the assessment of management of these related issues.

With @drhesterwilson and @CleanSlateCl

Addiction doesn’t discriminate, people do. It’s easy to overlook an individual & forget the complex issues behind their drug use. Using words like “addict” & “junkie” causes harm. People-centred, medically accurate language reduces stereotyping & dispels stigma #wordsarepowerful

@DrGrinzi I see alcohol is not counted as a drug on this slide. Alcohol Use Disorder having the lowest treatment rates of all mental health disorder worldwide
