I am ILM

Along with my big brother, I'm a carer for a human who struggles with very big feelings. She's been hurt by many humans and now tends to avoid their company.

@GPswampwarrior My human's GP supports my human on her own because a bazillion psychologists dumped my human for being "too complex". Thank you for caring for your patients. The "too complex" people deeply value those who believe they're worth caring about.

Yet another meaningless ECT study with no placebo group. And 68% memory loss called ‘acceptable’ . In teenagers!

@DrWilliams @GPswampwarrior @BrainMind_Usyd My human is one of those people you choose not to see. She has seen 17 therapists in 7 years. A psychiatrist refused to even meet her, telling her GP she was too complex. Her awesome GP keeps her alive.

@GPswampwarrior Someone could try talking to my human and her awesome GP. My human's just started seeing her 17th therapist in 7 years. They all dump her as "too complex". Her awesome GP is the reason my human hasn't yet died by suicide.

This pretty much describes my human's experience!☹️☹️☹️

It's amazing how much time mental health professionals can spend telling you your parents were bad, your attachment style's defunct, your object relations are an interior design nightmare, and your personality is broken. All while spending NO time noticing you are neurodivergent.

Fascinating to see what happens when a bunch of psychiatrists get together. I can't decide whether to laugh or cry. 😂😪😂😪😂😪

Imagine reading this abstract and thinking, yes this will fit right in at our conference. Obviously @rcpsych’s promotion of these kind of views goes far beyond the ‘thorn in the flesh’ training, and has so for many years

How many times do you think people were secluded or restrained by Victorian #MentalHealth services last year?

The number shocked us.

We call for a 2-year deadline to #EndSeclusion and #EndRestraint.

We need action, not excuses.

@MikeArmiger When I grow up I want to be as smart as you Mr Armiger. 🤣🤣🤣

@crys_tom My human found it really helpful to read the DBT skills manual herself. Empowered her with some useful skills without any of the icky punative or coercive parts of DBT.

@aclientfirst My autistic human has experienced catastrophic harm in therapy. ☹☹☹☹☹

@IndigoDaya @MaggieDaWitch Ooh my human wants to get a Sleeping Duck mattress. She says we just have to wait until my little bro grows up a bit, in case he decides eating a mattress is fun. Is the SD mattress very heavy? Some reviews say it is.

@MissPurewal97 Yep, my human hates change.

Next time your doctor tells you that you have a brain chemical imbalance, ask them to prove it. Ask them what the optimum level of the ‘brain chemical’ is supposed to be, and what yours are. Ask them how they know. Then ask them why they are prescribing you a medication for it.

[I am ILM @ILM2018]

This!!! My human is desperately trying to find her way out of this sort of nightmare.

[I am ILM @ILM2018]

Therapist-take-15 dumped my human this morning. Her brain is giant broken. I'm glad Agapē is here to help me and Sailor-V take care of our human. @indigoDaya @ClinpsychLucy

It wasn't just the toilet brush! My little brother appears to have a fetish for all toilet-cleaning implements. Please send help! 😲🤦‍♂️🙄 @jo__riley @IndigoDaya @changethecurri1
