No rape survivor should have to choose between seeking justice and seeking therapy. Routine requests for a survivor’s counselling notes undermine their right to specialist support. Let’s change the law to #KeepCounsellingConfidential bit.ly/3VgbG1O

Drapetomania - a proposed mental illness. In 1851, US physician Samuel A. Cartwright hypothesised as causing slaves to escape. Based on a belief that slavery was such an improvement upon their lives that only those suffering from some form of mental illness would wish to escape. #BadPsychology

Anxiety, stress, and panic attacks are often the body's response to a perceived danger. Watch the video for an explanation as to why and how this happens.

"Pseudo psychology, in essence, is the wolf in sheep’s clothing of the mental health world. It’s a collection of theories, practices, and beliefs that wear the costume of scientific psychology but lack the substance."

"Up to 12 hours through the day or overnight" screams the headline. Poor baby pilots having to stag on a couple of times a month - we'll get our tiny violins out when you manage 24 hours on 24 hours off for a couple of weeks. Bet they're not even doing roving patrols or bumpering the guard-room!

Scientific study of the human mind and behaviour, including thoughts, feelings, and motivations, atheistic armchair theory thank you! #BadPsychology

Douglas Adams nailed it back in 1980. Perhaps the modern take would be "In October 2022 Elon Musk bought Twitter. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move." #DontPanic #BlueSky #Xodus

'That shop,' said Sergeant Colon. 'That shop there . . . was it there yesterday?' Nobby looked at the peeling paint, the little grime-encrusted window, the rickety door. "Course,' he said. 'It's always been there. Been there years.' 1/2
