NEW: Mixed race girl "tried to kill herself after Met Police strip search as she was menstruating". The 14-year-old, who's autistic, was handcuffed and had her underwear cut in front of male officers during the search, her mother said.

Exactly, everything is related.
Right. I feel like I need to talk about this.
This week I was on Sky News, talking about my experiences of anxiety & panic for
#MentalHealthAwarenessWeek
. The item before was a man talking about eating from food banks & not being able to afford heating. These issues are linked.🧵

This reminds me of the time I had to explain to a more-than-fully-grown adult family member that only female cows were milked, and then what had to happen for them to keep on having milk to give...
Today I had to explain to a grown man (aged 52) that women do not have a continuous supply of milk. He thought it was something that happened in puberty, that women get a period and milk at the same time. He thought that.

Horrifying.
How Black people were abused in the field of medicine.

Okay, I’ve processed for a couple of days and I figure it’s worth discussing what happened to me. If for no other reason than to start a conversation
On Saturday night, I had my drink spiked and narrowly escaped what could have been a far more serious assault by 3 young men 1/

1/ WHY OUR "LET IT RIP" APPROACH TO COVID IS SO BIZARRE
I don't think people realise quite how odd this all is. The history of medicine is one of relentless improvement in health, against seemingly improbable odds. In my 30 years as a doctor, just some of the things I have seen:

Yes, this. I've newly acquired from my Mum a towel that *mumbles* 'might have been your father's'. HE'S BEEN DEAD FOR 40 YEARS 😂❤️
Visiting your parents in your 30s is just one big exercise in them trying to palm off unwanted household items onto you.

Yes, this. It was so my dream not to 'get married' that when I knew they were letting us gays get married, in 2012 we rushed to have a civil partnership in case they were going to do away with them 😂❤️ Very happy straights can have a CP now too.
You know on TV when someone says that every little girl dreams of her wedding day? I just wanted to state for the record that this isn’t true.
