I couldn't even say - 'Aaaaand I can't even talk about being censored because that's been censored too. Winston Smith! Are you out there?! I'll meet you at Mr Charrington's Antique Shop tomorrow at 2. We've got a lot to talk about.

Wow. I've just been censored by the #DailyMail's comments section because they didn't like that I was telling the public the truth about #ProfessorPeterFonagy and #SerenityIntegratedMentoring. He's the chair of the Independent? review into #MentalHealthConditions, #ADHD and #Autism.

If he was on Mercury, aside from the inconveniece of being dead, I think he'd enjoy the low gravity. He'd be much lighter and extremely bouncy.

It's my husband Mr Crayon's birthday today! Please join me in celebrating his 59 revolutions around the sun on This Island Earth. If he was on Mercury (88 day year), he'd be 245 years old, so it's a good job he's on Earth.

Here is a pictorial representation of 'evil' from Wikipedia (kinda cute don't you think?). By all means look up the description of evil on Wiki, just in case you're a little fuzzy round the edges about what the word means.

Fiona Watson @monsterfromid66.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
Because from where I'm standing, the UK government's response to the crisis in care is actually evil, and I don't throw that word around casually. How do you feel about being lumped in with evil people?

We are 'abnormal'. What the #UK goverment wants is to 'disappear' us into the rest of the 'normal' population by denying we exist. If we died, that would be even better to correct a 40+ year systemic failure. How do you Neurotypical folk feel about this?

Good morning world. I'd just like to make an announcement. Approximately 95% (figures based on the world average) of you on this app/website are #Neurotypical. Good for you. You are 'normal.' That leaves approximately 5% of the population who are #Neurodivergent (I'm focusing on #ADHD here).

Good point. I admit to using a Google AI system to collate the information about Fogarty and his connection to SIM (a very helpful person on FB mentioned his involvement but didn't go into detail), but I'm not a Professor leading government policy.

Fiona Watson @monsterfromid66.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
This is the man who is guiding government policy into how ADHD and Mental Health services should be run. A superficial glance at the report looks quite positive. If you look closer it is a disaster of monumental proportions which constantly contradicts itself and past government reports.

His research lent academic legitimacy to a fundamentally flawed, coercive, unethical and punitive system. When the UK Government appointed him to chair the Independent Review into Mental Health Conditions, ADHD, and Autism, advocates raised alarms over his history.

Fiona Watson @monsterfromid66.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
Professor Fonagy served as senior academic evaluator and lead researcher for the SIM programme during its expansion into London. His involvement has been a point of significant controversy and criticism from service-user campaign groups.
110
Fiona Watson @monsterfromid66.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
Following extensive campaigning and clinical reviews, NHS England issued a directive stating that SIM must no longer be used in NHS mental health services. They mandated the eradication of all punitive approaches, behavioral contracts, and planned police involvement in therapeutic interventions.
110
Fiona Watson @monsterfromid66.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
The programme faced extreme criticism. Ethical and practical concerns included the criminalisation of Mental Health and inserting the police into clinical care plans. The model also used sanctions, threats of withdrawing healthcare, and denying patients emergency medical access if they self-harmed.

Fiona Watson @monsterfromid66.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
A police officer was embedded within a community mental health team. The police officer and a mental health professional would attend sessions with the patient. The management plans aimed at encouraging the patient from repeatedly calling 999 or presenting to emergency departments.

Fiona Watson @monsterfromid66.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
How the Programme Operated The core goal of SIM was to reduce the frequency with which individuals experiencing recurrent mental health crises (often involving suicidality or self-harm) interacted with emergency services, such as being detained under Section 136 of the Mental Health Act.

Fiona Watson @monsterfromid66.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
Originally created on the Isle of Wight and later spread nationwide through the High Intensity Network, the programme has since been completely banned and eradicated across NHS mental health services.

Fiona Watson @monsterfromid66.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
Serenity Integrated Mentoring (SIM) was a UK mental health programme designed to bring together police officers and community mental health services to manage care plans for individuals identified as "high-intensity users" of emergency services.

I’ve been a media witness to two federal executions. One was Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh. The other, a week later, was a drug kingpin named Juan Raul Garza. My conclusion after watching both men die: The death penalty should not exist. Period. It fixes nothing, and it erodes our souls.

Good tip, but I've got past the descriptions of the sleep paralysis hallucinations that were really alarming to me and am now at lucid dreaming. Can I just say that I think that you're an exceptionally brave person dealing with a history of Covert Narcisstic Abuse (imo) alongside your Parasomnias.

@alicevernon10.bsky.social My god Alice, your book Night Terrors is astonishing. I don't think I've ever had such a strong reaction to a non-fiction book. The other night I kept glancing up from its pages to peer around, just in case there was something else in the room with me.
