My colleague Şükriye Açar is interested in hearing from people who have experienced both OCD and an eating disorder. These are both health conditions which are misunderstood and overlooked, so it would be great to learn more about people's experiences. Please share widely!

This poll was not as popular as I'd hoped 😅 So I'll try a different approach - has anyone noticed a relationship between taking SSRIs/other antidepressants and feeling sick on rollercoasters?

I just came across an advert for a London-based clinical trial which says it is testing a "new medicine for treating autism spectrum disorder (ASD)." There's no info on what "treating ASD" entails. It's shocked me a bit to see this - am I being naïve?

Helpful thread. It's sad to see much-needed mental health reforms put at risk due to media narratives surrounding a recent tragic case. "Getting help", for yourself or others, is extremely difficult when it comes to mental illness in the UK.
