@headroom50008 intro to self harm/suicide Q "Are you safe at the moment X? Not having thoughts about killing/harming yourself in anyway?"

[mae @mae5000817]

@headroom50008 reaffirming the difficulties involved in undertaking a MSE of a client who would rather be anywhere else than here

[mae @mae5000817]

@freya5000817 @headroom50008 'the government is chasing me' 'there's an asteroid coming' persecutory delusions?

[mae @mae5000817]

@NR5000817 @Jess5000817 @headroom50008 this would also decrease the stress placed on nurses which could benefit their mental health too

[mae @mae5000817]

@headroom50008 surely in this situation, the psychiatrist should be put on the phone ASAP.... its called an 'emergency'

[mae @mae5000817]

@sora5000817 @headroom50008 both i think - if they're telling him to do things that could lead to harming himself/others thats important too

[mae @mae5000817]

@Sky500082017 @headroom50008 I should have said "is he taking them appropriately"

[mae @mae5000817]

@Sky500082017 @headroom50008 i thought he said he a a psychiatrist and said yes when asked if the drugs were prescribed

[mae @mae5000817]

@headroom50008 you've asked about drugs but is he taking his prescribed meds? did i miss this??

[mae @mae5000817]

@Vicky5000817 @headroom50008 @Jason_50008_17 your firm attempt seems to be resulting in progress

[mae @mae5000817]

@emily_3_5000817 @headroom50008 or your own safety...

[mae @mae5000817]

@headroom50008 this activity makes things so much more real - way harder and more confronting than I expected

[mae @mae5000817]

@olivia5000817 @Aims50008 @headroom50008 @Julian5000817 seems like you had the same idea

[mae @mae5000817]

@olivia5000817 @Aims50008 @headroom50008 I reckon there would be a high level of anxiety and depression amongst the family and carers too

[mae @mae5000817]

@headroom50008 related to yesterdays trauma discussion and the impact on mental health - could more have been done?https://t.co/tX6QrM19wB

[mae @mae5000817]

@rachel5000817 @headroom50008 country living and large cups of coffee is clearly the way to go

[mae @mae5000817]

@headroom50008 Probably also linked to older individuals being misdiagnosed as 'old' rather than having depression that could be managed

[mae @mae5000817]

@pip_50008 Probably also linked to older individuals being misdiagnosed as 'getting old' rather than having depression that could be managed

[mae @mae5000817]

@headroom50008 Leunig's 'understandascope' mirrors the mental health nurse's view of a client's situation perfectly https://t.co/GuZeUIURlN
