I’ve done the mental health act 1983, the main sections (2, 3, 4, 5.2, 5.4, 136 and some others), mental health review tribunal, mental health act commission, second opinion appointed doctors. And I’ve done cards for the DSM-IV (WHO 1992) and ICD-10 (American Association of Psychiatry, goodness knows when!).
Tomorrow, I’m going to cards for the ten essential shared capabilities, recovery values and philosophies, NIMHE values framework, The CNO Nursing Review recommendations. In theory anyway.
I think then (another day) it’s ‘just’ the symptomotology of various diagnoses - mood disorders, anxiety disorders, childhood disorders, personality disorders, dementias and psychoses with particular reference to prodromals, not forgetting to mention negative symptoms and defining ‘delusion’, ‘hallucination’ and ‘illusion’
Have I mentioned that I’m losing the will to live! Well, maybe not. I am quite tired though!
i seem to remember you telling me about some of those things yet this morning it all seems to have fallen out of my head
Yes mine too.
Unfortunately.

Yaaay for revision cards. Although at the moment I am beginning to dislike them very much, there’s an army of them at my house all trying to get into my braaaain.
I have to admit, I am quite looking forward to getting a box to put them in….is that a sad thing to look forward to? Probably. But I really don’t care
Did the cat flap fairies come visiting?
