Most impactful for me over COVID lockdowns was the loss of intensive NHS in-person group DBT therapy, which dissolved into ineffective individual phonecalls. Similarly, the end of AA & recovery meets.
Like many I flopped in & out of psych wards during that period as a direct result of those losses.

this is just anecdotal but among my social circle like 90% of regularly scheduled in-person hangouts simply imploded over COVID and never returned. it's way, way harder to start these things than end them.

It’s the perfect time of year to show off the @beehivebooks.bsky.social edition of Carmilla - it arrived a few months ago and I’ve been in love with it ever since. Illustrated by Rosemary Valero-O’Connell, and well, I mean, just look at it 😍

My dream is go an entire month without somebody I care about sharing that they reached out for help and were treated with obvious contempt in a way that makes my jaw drop. It hasn't happened in 2025.

Trying to treat science and medicine as an apolitical zone which somehow exists outside of wider societal norms is an incredibly harmful trend. But at this point it's not just embarrassing for the clueless people promoting such a narrative, it's actively dangerous for the rest of us.

For an introvert, the real gift is finding someone whose presence feels calming instead of draining. Some people make you feel light and safe, while others drain your energy within minutes. Time with the right person feels effortless, with the wrong person it feels like a marathon

Those of you who know my work know that misgendering on death certificates has been a preoccupation of mine for several years now. I have been really concerned to hear that even though we now have specific guidance on the issue, there are some Coroners who have not been following it.
The tendency of Coroners to ignore guidance from the Chief Coroner, the reality of trans existence, and the wishes of bereaved parents, and express their own views in the death certificate, is both contemptible and unlawful.
We have a legal team ready to go; we will challenge it in the High Court.

Reminds me of pro~ana websites in the late nineties, while I was cooking my own young brain on starvation. This current trend reveals how quickly positive cultural change can be unwritten.
Openly pro-ed content on social media has been more popular than I am comfortable with, it’s the aggressive normalization of skinny as good, moral and right as opposed to skinny just being aesthetically and physically pleasing. Can’t imagine being young and exposed to that rhetoric
The return of extremely skeletal bodies for women as a norm is deeply concerning.
Being hungry all the time cooks your brain.
