I’ve been very fortunate in being offered an interview at Staffordshire for dclinpsy. I’ve not interviewed there before and would appreciate any advice about the process! Thank you ☺️

Just retweeting in the hopes there might be someone who could help!
I’ve been really lucky to be offered an interview at Bangor this year for the dclinpsy. I’ve never interviewed there and don’t feel clued up on the process! If anyone has and would be willing to speak to me that would be amazing. Thanks in advance. 💙

if my sister Alice had received puberty blockers when she first sought gender-affirming care when she was 17, it would have prevented changes in her body which she didn’t want and which contributed to her inability to imagine a liveable future
BREAKING: Puberty blockers for under-18s with gender dysphoria will be banned indefinitely in the UK, the Department of Health and Social Care has announced. ➡️ https://t.co/4aBDWEiL6a 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube

#Dyspraxia is often invisible, but the shame isn't. It's in each stare, every impatient sigh. If you're a healthcare provider, please ensure you know enough about dyspraxia and what it co-occurs with including autism, ADHD and mental illness to be patient, validating + helpful.

Just putting out a bit of a call for support! Due to changing jobs recently I no longer have any support for my dclin application. I would really appreciate anyone who could have a bit of a glance over it (but I also know this is last minute), absolutely no pressure to anyone!

Consistent with an affective pathway to psychosis, the findings suggest that DSOs may be more important than core PTSD symptoms in maintaining psychotic experiences in daily life among people with...

I’d just like to share some reflections on the DClinPsy, life recently & MH services. 🧵 My brother was sectioned a few months ago for psychosis following an avoidable event and years of my family seeking help for him.

Unfortunately, a tabloid newspaper has got hold of a music video I recorded in Islington North with an iconic grime artist I've admired for years. They are planning to publish a heavily edited clip, so I'm releasing the full version myself. Watch here:

This clinical psychologist went to Gaza & her reports are heartbreaking. Shame on the field for its ongoing silence & even worse, punitive action taken against those advocating for freedom of the Palestinian people #dclinpsy

I am so sorry but this is unequivocally unethical. I know this Reddit thread very well. It has some of the most vulnerable folk on it with schizophrenia who very often trust noone and have concerns of being watched. To pluck any data in a rare peer space is deeply is dangerous.
