Our mental-health specialty circle met in Birmingham last month and the conversation stayed long after the room closed. The theme that kept coming back was what we carry ourselves — the toll of migrating into a system that does not always recognise the breadth of what we trained for. Simba Mutasa writes on this for the network. His thesis: we are better at supporting patients than we are at supporting each other, and ZNN needs to change that. The circle is piloting a monthly peer-support call, members-only, no notes, no recording. If you practice in mental health and want in, write to Simba through the member directory.
