@DrHannahBelcher @rcpsych I can assure you, the MCA is used everyday in mental health services - most often to deny people care or to justify a lack of action from services. Everyday. Not just by a small minority, by the majority. #YouHaveCapacity

I'm really curious, if @rcpsych are stating that the Mental Capacity Act is *not* a framework for assessing the decision to end one's life, why it is used every single day for this exact purpose by psychiatrists & other MH professionals up & down the country? 🤔 #YouHaveCapacity
Strong statement from @rcpsych “We cannot support the Terminally Ill Adults Bill”

When mh professionals tell patients #youhavecapacity to kill themselves they are also saying, 'It is not our responsibility to prevent your death.'
of people from our community who died after experiencing years of PD-related stigma, abuse, and discrimination, genuinely sickens me. 14/14

"At its worst, the concept of capacity can become weaponised to punish pts [..] [L]egislation that legitimises non-treatment may be dangerous, especially in a group of pts who some clinicians may regard as wasteful of healthcare resources & undeserving of care" #YouHaveCapacity
I got asked by a mh trust to present my misuse of the mental capacity act study at a suicide prevention webinar. Feeling unsure. Obviously I want the message out there, but I'm quite mad rn & even the thought of it gives me chest pain. What do people think? #YouHaveCapacity
Great conversation between Dr Chloe Beale and Alex Ruck Keene about the #YouHaveCapacity phenomenon. Some excellent and interesting points raised. So glad this topic is getting more attention.

I took part in this research study - it breaks my heart that so many of the other respondents' experiences could easily be mistaken for my own 😢 #YouHaveCapacity
🧵 CW: Suicide, iatrogenic harm
In December 2021 I shared a questionnaire online, looking to explore people's experiences of being told they "had the capacity to end their lives". Here are the results. 1/

Thank you everyone who responded to the questionnaire. Thank you for trusting me with your experiences. I hear you. I see you. You did not and do not deserve to be treated like this. 7/7

Thank you to all 211 people who took part, sharing such personal & painful experiences. Thank you to everyone who shared it on twitter. The questionnaire is now closed & I will begin to write up the results in the new year. Happy New Year #MadTwitter

@Soph_Fedorowicz I will be writing up and publishing the findings once the submissions wind down. I'll be using the hashtag #YouHaveCapacity for people to keep track.
I am really blown away by the response so far. Over 120 responses since yesterday afternoon & it's still rising. Thank you so much for trusting me with your experiences. I'm shocked & saddened that so many people have been treated this way ❤️❤️

"help is out there". No more, please. It's so insulting. You want to raise awareness of something, raise awareness of the fact that for many people, crisis care consists of someone telling them down the phone that they have the capacity to kill themselves #YouHaveCapacity 3/
ambulance for myself when I'm done, not before. Is that not a common experience? Is it just because it's actually in writing this time?
Obviously, not calling an ambulance is "not taking responsibility for my safety." 🙃

EUPD treatment isn't so bad that they'll only treat you once you hit crisis point or once you end up in A&E.
EUPD treatment is so bad that they don't even treat you once you do.
Over and over again.

Police failed to investigate a young vulnerable woman being sexually exploited by an ambulance medic, and failed to flag her to victim support services, because they decided she "had full capacity". Jade was later found dead.
