Medical terms and Mental Health sharing. An introduction into the world of mental health.
Hello, and welcome to a warm and friendly place where Sharing is Caring.
Medical terms in health care covers a range of illnesses, from anxiety disorders to eating disorders, alzheimers, dementia, drug addiction (the effects of cocaine and heroin), substance abuse, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, personality disorders, learning disabilities, autism. These can be very complex and soul destroying for the sufferers and their families and carers.
For many individuals who are new to mental health, all the information contained in this site is a great resource and can be used alongside their induction training.
Many mental health hospitals offer good quality care, treatment and rehabilitation programmes for their service users as well as good community care facilities. There is a wide variety of information available which provide extensive knowledge about diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation and recovery.
Training Services can be provided through Specialist Health and Social Care Training Providers offering a very high standard of training with only experienced and time served trainers.
There is so much stigma about mental health, and the aim of this site is to provide information on medical terms and mental health issues, experiences, illnesses and disorders, care provisions and practices, organizations and hospitals, and general issues.
It is also an opportunity for people suffering from mental illness to have their say on what its like for them and their families, and for people who work in this sector, how they feel, their experiences, views etc…

About Me
I have spent the last 9 years working in mental health as a support worker. My first few months were very much a shock to the system, another world I thought. I was very naive and although well read on the subject, it was still an eye-opener. I have worked with some real characters and some frightening ones too. Initially, the patients I worked with had Learning Disabilities, Autism, Bipolar, Schizophrenia, OCD and various Personality Disorders. I educated myself to gain understanding and have enjoyed working in this environment. I now work in Psychiatric Rehabilitation and still enjoy the challenge.
The main aim of this site is to promote shared experiences, to provide information at an introductory level, to offer support and guidance and to offer training in all areas within the Care environment.
