@jamcusack NHIR are discontinuing trials in social prescribing at the moment as it is a design issue as they think clinical trials are not the most effective way to assessing it, so raises interesting question of are RTCs always the only way to

[Ruby @RubyRoseJarvis]

#MHQT Question for the panel: What about social prescribing?

[Ruby @RubyRoseJarvis]

@jamcusack There are things that we have done unintentionally at Autistica. We ask everyone how can we improve our leadership and meet their needs. Its less a autism question its more of neurodiversity question

[Ruby @RubyRoseJarvis]

#MHQT Question for the panel: my question is about training clinicians with autism working with brief CBT interventions

[Ruby @RubyRoseJarvis]

#MHQT Question for the panel: There have been a lot of small changes to improve care immediately, but culture change takes a long time – what is the ‘smallest step’ or easiest first step to improve care for autistic people

[Ruby @RubyRoseJarvis]

@EloiseClinPsy @AmandaT_ASC There needs to be more forms of communication, people may be less likely to mask if they are face to face with someone.

[Ruby @RubyRoseJarvis]

#MHQT Question for the panel: One speaker mentioned masking, both conscious and unconscious - I wonder what the panel suggest as possible ways clinicians can do to be aware and reduce these behaviours where appropriate?

[Ruby @RubyRoseJarvis]

@EloiseClinPsy it's important to be made to feel safe. How do you stop masking when you feel like someone might see the real you and have an issue. Its complex and has to be from the bottom up

[Ruby @RubyRoseJarvis]

@EloiseClinPsy there is loads of us in health care already, but so many don't feel like they cannot be honest about their diagnosis. We need a culture in health care where it is not 'them' and 'us'

#MHQT Question for the panel: People are saying we need more RTCs in autism research, but can you talk about the conflict of how controlled these trials need to be and how individualized treatment needs to be?

@HarmlessUK @RubyRoseJarvis Watch @RubyRoseJarvis @UCLPsychiatry @UCLMentalHealth @MentalhealthMSc describing what we presented yesterday in the @HarmlessUK #SuicideBereavement conference: @samaritans media guidelines on reporting #suicide also exist to protect the bereaved from intrusion into grief.

[Claire Dixon 🌱 @cbdix]

2/4 Top tips for journalists/editors:
DON'T:
❌Speculate about cause of death
❌Use inappropriate language (e.g. "commit", "successful attempt")
❌Use deceit to gather information
❌Exploit the bereaved for a headline
❌Publish personal info the family don't want in public domain

[Claire Dixon 🌱 @cbdix]

3/4 DO:
👉Read & stick to Samaritans' Media Guidelines
👉Use sympathy, sensitivity & discretion
👉Include signposting information to services
👉Be respectful. Each person you see in coroner's court is human. Remember their faces when writing. They will see, read & feel your words

1/4 Fascinating presentation from @DrAPitman & @RubyRoseJarvis at the @HarmlessUK
@lifevssuicide @letstalknlearn #SBConference2023. The traumatic impact of suicide loss is amplified in the month following death, when press coverage is likely to be highest.

[Claire Dixon 🌱 @cbdix]
