I hope so too as it's really getting me down and on top of that ive got wee Caledonians adhd assessments next week. My poor wee head is fried. This is where I hate my brain as it can't stop going round and round when things happen I process what happened and reprocess it til it can't be processed anymore and it's tiring. I'm waiting on an assessment for me too but I've been waiting 4yrs and twice they have cancelled it as not had the staff. Been waiting now since last again September 🙈 tempted to go private at this rate

What do you make of it all now, @veevee04 ? If you don’t mind me asking. Just curious as you are a fellow nurse (I think!) etc. X
NICU isn't my speciality so I don't really know much about it. I know nurses do throw each other under the bus but to have no one at all backing her (colleagues) shows that they must 10000 percent believe it was her. She was a permanent member of staff not bank or agency. Even mega holes have 1 or 2 allies.
I think if any of the MDT had doubts they would have spoken up by now. So I think she must have done it but it's perplexing why.

Ah, I am so sorry to hear this. If anything, a diagnosis might help him? Don’t catastrophise (easier said than done, I know 💜). He will be grand. If it helps, I was diagnosed (privately, so a bit skeptical to be honest) ADHD about 2 years ago. My thoughts are completely tangential and my head is always up my hole. I interrupt everyone and I either can’t sit still or I become so completely overwhelmed with simple tasks that I would rather sit and rot than pick up a crisp bag. Just knowing helps me focus a little though. I’ve had to work on the crazy catastrophising thoughts. Keep the faith, it’s not the end of the world by any means. It might really benefit him to know and they are great in school now with special supports. Hope you and baby Cal are doing good too. It will all be ok 💜 xx

Thanks a mill for sharing. Yea I totally get you, I initially thought she may have been getting stitched up for sure. Once I heard the evidence though… it’s just so mental to even think someone is capable of it. Perplexing is right. But we will never understand that mindset I suppose. It must be bloody awful at times in work. I’m sure it’s affected morale quite significantly. I hope the staff are being supported but I can guess it’s all on the low down instead. It’s bleeping insane to be honest, the whole thing.

Yes that does sound utterly exhausting, we all need to switch off and give our brains a rest, particularly when we've got a lot going on. Are you managing to sleep? Please listen to me my love...don't let yourself go too low, keep a little eye on yourself and see your GP if you need too x

What’s this about sectioning? I thought I’d read all the posts today but missed this..? Or was this one of the ones deleted? If so I’ll get back in my box!
Anyone who thinks sectioning is a holiday camp especially high secure its not. There's no drugs because there's a lot more staff so searches happen loads. Many get secluded which is a mattress on the floor in high secure, it's literally a mattress and a shower area nothing else, if they refuse medication its forcibly injected.
Even if your sentence finishes it's when the MDT decides fit to release or tribunal but tribunal usually side with the MDT. Some have been sectioned their entire adult lives because some sadly will never get well enough or will always be a danger to society.
