The day before my son should have been 26, and on the day the news is reporting 3 suicides relating to the same hospital, I’d like to make a point about the language around suicide. It’s only going to be 3/4 tweets. If you agree, please retweet and let’s see how this goes
Our petition is approaching 140,000. At the moment it’s the 4th biggest on the @GOVUK petition page. Please keep signing and sharing - we need to keep pressure on the government. Talking about suicide saves lives. #helpsaveyounglives#SuicidePrevention https://t.co/MoMPvh67Ho
@HayleyQuinnPhD Loved this one, couldn’t work out how to write a review! 🤦♀️ So many helpful thoughts - I’m off to lower the bar and be less than average! 😉
Being abandoned by family + community would have almost certainly resulted in death for our ancestors. As such, we have evolved to respond to social threats or the slightest hints of abandonment or rejection with intense attempts to avoid or control them.

Welcome to modern Britian on a Monday morning.
Red dots is where sewage dumping has been taking places over the weekend, grey dots is where the water company has stopped supplying the data. Why have you done that @SouthWestWater?
After 12 years of Tory failure, the British people deserve so much better than this revolving door of chaos.

Want to be fearless? Don't bother trying to delete your anxiety. That time is better spent building new habits of courage. Consciously build your reserve of mindfulness, self-compassion & psychological flexibility. We do better building than avoiding.
