22.01.2022 It's OK to grow and change, just don't stay put if you're not happy with where you're at.

21.01.2022 Severe Trauma and complex PTSD doesn't just resolve or go away. It follows you day in and day out until you're overwhelmed and can't make a decision or remember what you should be doing at any given moment. It causes anger, frustration and a feeling helplessness that in turn causes more negative feelings of loss, guilt and anxiety. It's crippling. It robs you of relationships, happiness, and any hope for a better future. ... And the industries we work in actually exacerbate it all, as most are run by emotionless narcissists who couldn't care less. People are discarded as they break. It's like the 'sense of urgency' space that they operate in paralyses them from being able to stop and pick up a fallen comrade to make sure they're OK. Most are not. Most are just surviving, mask in place, smile plastered on, hoping no one will notice they are breaking a it's seen as a weakness. We need to break the cycle of trauma, not add to it by caring more about POST times and lost time instead of lost comrades. The organisations need to remember these are people! Husbands, wives, mothers and fathers, sons and daughters, brothers, sisters and friends. Their lives and their mental health actually matters. It's time to make a change and stand up for each other. Have the courage, to say I'm not ok and the guts to check in on each other. The system is broken. It's not working. It's killing our people.

19.01.2022 *copied from a work colleague* I work for the ambulance service but nobody taught me how to sit an 86 year old gentleman down to tell him his wife of... 65 years has died in her sleep. Nobody taught me how to watch as the desire for life leaves his eyes the moment I break the earth shattering news that would change his life forever. Nobody taught me how to accept a torrent of abuse from a complete stranger, just because they have been drinking all day and want a lift home. Nobody taught me how to reason with the aggressive patient I’ve just met, overdosed but needing my help to breathe. Nobody taught me how to talk to someone so depressed that they have just slit their own wrists, panicked and called for help. Nobody taught me how to respond when they turned to me and said, I can’t even get suicide right. Nobody taught me how to bite my tongue when I went two hours over my finish time for someone who’d been ‘generally unwell’ for 24 hours. Nobody taught me how to accept that I would miss out on things other people take for granted; birthdays, Christmas day, meals at normal times of the day, sleep. Nobody taught me how to hold hands with a dying person as they take their last breath, how to hold back the tears because it’s not my grief. Nobody taught me how to keep a straight face whilst a young man explains how he may of hurt himself doing something silly. Nobody taught me how to act when a patient head butts me out of the blue! Working for the ambulance service is so much more than swooping in and saving lives; it’s about dealing with the most unique, challenging experiences and just going home at the end of the shift, being asked ‘how was your day’ and replying ‘fine thanks’. It is about constantly giving a bit of yourself to every patient, because although it’s our fifth patient of the day and we can’t remember their name, it’s their first ambulance, their loved one, their experience. It’s about the bits that nobody taught me how... It’s about providing pain relief and reassurance to a 90 year old lady who’s fallen and hurt her hip, and despite all the pain she turns and says, Thank you, how are you?. It’s about a hug that you give someone on Christmas Day because they haven’t spoken to anyone for days, they have no relatives or companions but you’ve brightened up their day. It’s about climbing in the car next to someone and saying, ‘Don’t worry, we’ll have you out of here in just a moment’ It’s about everything that we do that the media doesn’t publicise. It’s about knowing the fact that we couldn’t attend to the dying man because we were dealing with a drunk... who then assaulted one of us. Despite all the training we have, some things you just don’t get taught....."

19.01.2022 This beautiful girl has saved us..... she is the reason we were able to get through the past 12 months. We owe her a lot!

17.01.2022 So many people don't know what to say, how to say it or how to approach someone showing signs of not being ok. It's amazing how many people I've spoken to said they were thinking of 'him' but didn't pick up the phone and make contact as they didn't know what to say. Say Hi Say How are you, and give a shit about the answer. You don't need to fix anything. ... You don't need to have any answers. Sometimes you just need to listen and show you care by calling. I can't guarantee they'll always answer the phone either, but at least they'll know that you made the effort and tried. See more

09.01.2022 Being a bystander is a hard gig! Watching the ups and downs. Witnessing the fall and being helpless to prevent it. Occasionally I am able to jolt awareness back and reground into the present, rather than watching the past play out over and over and over. Each day we strive for peace and gratitude and set small achievable goals. ... Some days we win, some days we lose. But every day that I get to go to bed with someone beside me is a great day.

03.01.2022 This right here is why men’s mental is so important. Two men, clearly hurting have been mocked and made fun of by the world before knowing what they are really... going through or even to take the time to stop and think. We talk about how we are equal yet if this, I am more meaning with Will Smith, was two women I think the reaction would be extremely different. Everyone has their pain and their struggles but I want to remind you it’s been engrained into men that they’re not meant to show emotion, they have been taught it’s weak or it’s unmanly. They’re taught that being a man means not caring about being hurt by a woman, not having a heart. Men, like women, fall in love. We all know what it’s like when that person breaks us. Often it can feel more painful than a death. It hurts and a man hurting about this is a man being a human. To also make fun of someone having a clear public break down is also another reason many men do not get help. They’re mocked and made fun of, instead of being shown care or compassion. Having mental illness can be debilitating and extremely painful. It can change all logical thinking and have people do things they can’t control. This isn’t a joke. None of it is. So next time before you make fun of someone think, if you want change- you have to be the change. Start now and start with yourself.

01.01.2022 So true! Jeff has helped us so much
