Another brilliant day with the fantastic paediatric teams from @UHSussex - Thanks so much for having us!

We are studying social function and eating disorders. Seeking participants age 12-16 with eating disorders or healthy controls age 12-14. Is that you? And bring a friend!

[Dr Sophie Stark @sophiestarkpsy]

@HelenlouWest @FionaQuigs @Mental_Elf @kingsedresearch @KingsIoPPN Same!!! Let's all go next year!

[Dr Tara Porter @drtjap]

Interesting proof-of-concept study linking reductions in social media use to improvements in body image in #eatingdisorders. Adds to a growing evidence base of a link between social media use and body dissatisfaction. https://t.co/bQeYvd3UpA

@FionaQuigs I rewarded myself with peanut m'n'ms every 100 or so words. That helped

[Embodied Eating UK @embodied_eating]

Such a privilege to work with these brilliant teams from @UHSussex who are working incredibly hard to deliver compassionate care to all those with ED’s on their wards. Inspiring to hear about what they’ve put into practice since our last training #eatingdisorderawarenessweek

[Dr Sophie Stark @sophiestarkpsy]

@Sharleen_RD @embodied_eating @beccagregson15 It would be great if we could great a shared resource page where different services could upload their resources so we can share them. @FionaQuigs how hard would this be to create?

[Dr Sophie Stark @sophiestarkpsy]

Two years later than planned I finally wore a floppy hat and was introduced as Dr Sophie Stark @DclinpsyUh

[Dr Sophie Stark @sophiestarkpsy]

@FionaQuigs @HelenlouWest @AgnesAyton @EDA_NIreland I hope we start thinking about more community based interventions rather than waiting for these young people to present at services

[Dr Sophie Stark @sophiestarkpsy]

When your business partner and bad ass bestie is taking things to new heights. Very proud and excited to see where this takes you Helen!!!

Watch this space! She's doing great things

[Helen West RD @HelenlouWest]

Excited to share that I’ll be joining @KingsNursing on a @THIS_Institute PhD fellowship to research NG Feeding under restraint & to co-design dining room support with patients & ppl with lived experience. The project builds on our work at Brighton & Hove Clinic. Watch this space!

@HopeVirgo Really recommend the book crib sheet which put alot my anxieties around parenting to rest. It lays out the research in a really matter of fact way so parents can make their own minds up about stuff like sleep, weaning etc

[Dr Sophie Stark @sophiestarkpsy]

@pulsetoday @dr_musgrave So our young people's mental health shouldn't be a priority? Hmmm don't think that's gonna fly

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

I recently came across data on who we spend our time with over the course of our lives.

The insights are simultaneously inspiring and depressing.

Here are 6 graphs everyone needs to see:

[The RCN @theRCN]

The NHS is in crisis.

Patients are unsafe.

Our members are saying loud and clear: enough is enough.

For the first time in the RCN’s history, our members have mandated strike action throughout the UK.

RT to support nursing.

[Enough is Enough @eiecampaign]

Today, @theRCN has announced the first national strike in its 106-year history.

Nurses across the UK are underpaid and overworked.

They’re not just fighting for themselves – they’re fighting for our NHS.

RT if you’re behind them 💙

[Dr Sophie Stark @sophiestarkpsy]

@FionaQuigs @Sharleen_RD @HelenlouWest @LauraSharples9 Definitely let us know if we can support! I can't actually believe this is happening

[Dr Sophie Stark @sophiestarkpsy]

A little bit shy, but also proud of what we will be creating for young people

[Enough is Enough @eiecampaign]

🚨 BREAKING: Nurses across the UK have voted for strike action.

RT if you will stand with every single nurse that takes strike action to lift themselves out of poverty.

Claps won’t pay the bills.
