How are occupations engaged in shelter or transitional housing settings in the summers vs the winters?
Today is 100 days since I was first admitted to hospital after taking a mixed overdose. I won't elaborate further.
Since then I have had 3 admissions; 2 to general wards and 1 to a #mentalhealth unit. I spent time as an informal patient and also detained under Section 3 1/21

Still reflecting on a Grand Rounds presentation by @TaraLaguMD last week on people with disabilities as an unrecognized health disparity population. And how there needs to be systemic change, with attention to detecting, understanding, and reducing. #DisabilityPolicy

@DrCConnell @sarah_bodell @LecturerMish @anita_atwal 1/ Good question @sarah_bodell

Please don't rush to judge - parent blaming is such a toxic yet common & sometimes automatic occurrence

Inspired by this gem of a question (pardon the pun) for mental health services wishing to create welcoming work environments staff with #livedexperience:
"How does your workplace shine a light on the sharing of lived experience? What shadows are cast?"
Thank you, @Carolynne_OT!
