also really bleakly funny when they'll tell you absolutely any symptom under the sun is "anxiety"
The fact that many GPs don't believe people with mental health conditions will not be news to those of us with mental health conditions who have had to deal with these cunts.

Kudos on the BBC for continuing to manufacture consent to take away our rights and healthcare though.
'Life being stressful is not an illness' - GPs on mental health over-diagnosis
Hundreds of GPs in England tell the BBC they are also worried about a lack of help for patients.

I knew it was going to be special taking Ramona to see Charli XCX as she turned 12 but seeing how joyful she was just totally blew me away.

Part of the power of a denialist official narrative is in making you feel like you're going mad, a broken record, as you repeatedly insist on blatant truth and basic morality.

There is an ongoing genocide, including the large-scale massacre of children, aided by our government and country.

The Israeli government is starving Gaza's entire population.

It has now announced plans to invade and occupy the whole strip, forcing further displacement.

What additional proof is needed that this is genocide? Why isn’t our government doing everything it can to stop this?

By me, in the book Fierce Salvage: "When Scotland was judged the best place in Europe for LGBTQ+ people to live, to work and to love in the mid-2010s, we saw it as a sign of how far we’d come. We didn’t see it for what it really was: a sign of how far we were about to fall."

My firstborn kid has been on the waiting list for an austism assessment for just over two and a half years.
More to do? You've got that bloody right.
New figures show that we have met our CAMHS waiting times target, with over 90% of patients being seen within 18 weeks.

There’s more to do, but we’re making real progress on tackling NHS waiting times across Scotland.

Ramona is little sistering hard this evening - Iz's girlfriend is over and as soon as they shut the door Ramona started playing Careless Whisper on the Bluetooth speaker. Then when they turned it off she just stood outside the door with her phone.
