Right I’ve seen this one example, how exactly does that explain away everything else she’s written?

No, I’m just not a telepath. And I don’t follow conspiracy sources online very often.

If you have a point to make, you should make it. This cryptic stuff devalues your argument.

In my view none of them were, but you’re free to tell me what you think you’ve found.
March 19, 2025 at 6:49 PM
Well that’s a fair point but it doesn’t change the overdiagnosis issue in private healthcare, which many doctors believe to be financially informed. Feel free: bjgp.org/content/73/7...
ADHD and the rise of the private diagnosis
It’s a topic that is emotive for patients, parents, and carers. The diagnosis of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) can be a difficult area to navigate, with significant delays in the ref...

That’s irrelevant to the point I’m making though.

The private sector gets less patients in general, so it’s a matter of numbers, not a per capita lack of complexity in private patients.

You should ask doctors what they think of this, many will agree with me.
March 19, 2025 at 6:27 PM
My resistance is informed by my firsthand experience working in the NHS as well as all my other colleagues who are doctors, plenty being psychiatrists 🤷‍♂️

That doesn’t seem to track with simple conditions such as depression and anxiety which have very simple diagnostic criteria.

We’re not talking about rates of diagnosis of depression vs BPD here.

You brought up data, you should cite it
March 19, 2025 at 6:16 PM
Because they don’t have the resources.
March 19, 2025 at 6:16 PM
Private hospitals don’t have A&E largely because it’s not sustainable, especially since emergency care in the NHS is actually very good.
March 19, 2025 at 6:16 PM
Well if you’re bringing up data surely you should be able to source it yourself?

Open discussion? Just because private patients pay for the care doesn’t mean they’re any less reluctant inherently.
March 19, 2025 at 6:13 PM
I think you’re making a lot of very wild assumptions about differences between private and NHS patients which is very damaging.
March 19, 2025 at 6:08 PM
Would love to see this data.

Even if true, however, it doesn’t explain the skyrocketing rates of diagnosis for conditions like anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, etc.

People who pay for private healthcare aren’t any more likely to have these conditions. There’s a bias.
March 19, 2025 at 6:07 PM
Private patients aren’t inherently less complex or more motivated that’s a load of assumptions
March 19, 2025 at 6:02 PM
And what exactly is the logic behind the fact that a patient who didn’t receive an NHS diagnosis could receive one from a private doctor? They’re SUPPOSED to use the same criteria and rigor, however in private care you absolutely can just buy a diagnosis.
March 19, 2025 at 6:02 PM
I didn’t say that lmfao I said there’s a bias and a difference in rates of diagnosis. There’s a reason for that.
March 19, 2025 at 5:57 PM
I’ve read all of her books and yes, I have.
March 19, 2025 at 5:57 PM
What an absurd, hyperbolic thing to say
March 19, 2025 at 5:44 PM
Incorrect, you started making spurious assumptions about my political leaning and implying I’m a traditional authoritarian. I don’t speak with respect to people who put words in my mouth and try to force me in boxes I don’t belong in.

Begone, Satan.
