Europe is on fire, meanwhile Kylie Jenner is taking 15 minute trips in her private jet. I could recycle everything, buy all my clothes second hand, compost and grow my own food for the rest of my life and it wouldn’t even begin to offset the footprint from one of her flights.
Hello! 👋🏼
We have been really quiet on here. We have both been poorly recently. Stu is still in hospital and has been for the past few weeks. He was dx with #endocarditis & became v poorly v quickly. Hopefully the antibiotics do their magic & he feels better soon🧡

Longgggggggg long long day. Worth it though as ran some lovely activities and brought some smiles to the ward. Paper plant pots for seedlings 🌱🪴 & then clay sculpting this evening. Love my mini fungi family - ready to paint once dry 👌🏻💛🎨
But which is it? You can’t have it both ways dependent on when suits.
The expertise brought by those with lived experience can’t be cherry-picked when agreeable, and disregarded when uncomfortable; heard and responded to when easy, and fall on deaf ears when too challenging.

Six of us went on a cinema trip today ( 2 thought they were too cool for a group foot photo) …😂
Fab afternoon with lovely people, food, drinks and a great film too.

@borderlineroro Hot water bottle or if that’s not allowed then one of the microwave cuddles that can keep you warm 🥰
Opposite end of the scale.. reusable ice packs for sensory purposes. Most units will have freezers somewhere that staff could pop them in for you 🌏
What is sleep and where can I find it? 🧐
3 weeks of 2-4 hrs sleep max per night 🙃
Insomnia by Faithless keeps popping into my head; this isn’t so great as whilst it’s an absolute tune, it’s actually making me want to grab a bev and party 🍸💃🏻🎵💤
Beth sadly passed away a short time after posting this tweet. She tweeted that the injuries she’d sustained in a suicide attempt were the reason she felt suicidal now. Beth was such an inspiration to a lot of people; she did so much to raise awareness by sharing her journey.

I am struggling so so much. I can’t eat, can’t sleep, all I do is lie in bed crying. I’m so lost & broken.
I’m sorry I haven’t posted much recently & I’m sorry for being so negative. I’m just in a really really dark place right now & I can’t see a way out.
@HannahJay96 It’s horrible that you’re struggling so much. Please don’t beat yourself up about it though. I know so so many nurses/other HCP who access mh support/teams. You’ve come so far, you’re doing great and it’s okay that you’re needing some more support. Much better than giving up ♥️
@DrEmmaNielsen I don’t think it’s rude. Context would probably be helpful for those who don’t know you. Most people will take it at face value I think and understand there’s a reason for this, which is not rudeness.
