Ok. So as a self promoter I ABSOLUTELY suck. It’s so far from who I am as a human being. I’m more of a ‘cower in the corner’ kinda person. BUT. I’ve had some conversations recently which reminded me exactly why my fellow editors and I set about curating our book.

Well this is mildly terrifying! We’ve done it. It’s out there! So incredibly proud of all who contributed their stories, bared their souls and had the courage to be seen. I hope it helps just one person know they’re alone. And anything is possible 💖 amazon.co.uk/Autistic-Antho…

I can't believe Monday is launch day! The moment all our beautiful, traumatic, awe-inspiring, empathy-inducing, cringeworthy and occasionally hilarious experiences of being an autistic mental health professional are laid bare. What was I THINKING! @Nikita_Psych @DrMarianneTrent

So we did a thing. An autism book thing. Well, TBF I did very little. All the amazingness came from those who contributed their stories and experiences. Check it out. Or… you know… don’t. But just know you’re missing out 😆👌🏻📚💖🌈 #actuallyautistic #autisticMHprofessionals

@NikitaRachel_ That autistic level of prep which means you’ve basically been there and have greater knowledge than 44% of locals but yet never actually physically visited 🤣 Sounds amazing! If I thought it would be a) tolerable b) feasible child care wise and c) remotely productive… I’m there!

I was a doctor. I lived and breathed medicine. Then burnout & mental illness happened. Upset & angry, I left medicine. If you care about the #NHS, And you plan to vote in the #GeneralElection You NEED to know these 3 things.. 🧵

@dr_emina @VickyJervis @TeesPsych Echoing this, the number of trainees and newly qualified neurodivergent psychologists sharing experiences of discrimination during training is scary. We need to do something about it.
