Hi all, all my articles so far since I left the Guardian/Observer are in the link in the next tweet. I’d put the link in this tweet, but algorithms 😠. Many of them are free to read 🤓you can ignore the pay to read ones.

Sexual healing isn't always healing. Link to podcast between me and another therapist, Jerry Hyde in next tweet

Very jolly article, I have been fed up of people not enjoying Thursday Murder Club, the film, I thought it was a great romp. Also VCM gives us a recipe for lemon cake WITH NOT ENOUGH EGGS do not attempt it. She advises the same herself.

When your partner has an affair it’s very normal to hate “the other woman” and yet… article in next tweet

@RealDMitchell We LOVED it 😍

Thanks for all the nice messages about Mitchell and Webb Are Not Helping. I’m delighted to say that episode 2 features one of our favourite, and most Oscar winning, former cast members.

@TheArtistStacey Thank you

@Philippa_Perry I agree with every word Philippa. At least he doesn't try to justify his behaviour or blame his wife. What causes this kind of addiction?

@jennyeclair YES! a lot of specs but also a lot of cataract ops so not as many as there used to be.

@Philippa_Perry There is a remarkable lack of specs but I’ve not seen enough to judge tbh

My partner is older than at least two of the Thursday murder club cast, but he can’t live in a posh retirement home, because for starters, he’s still working!

Do you think we may be guilty of overusing words like “control” “boundaries”? Is therapy-speak now doing as much harm as good? This article shows what I mean. It’s about power and farting. api.omarshehata.me/substack-proxy…
