MHRJ is always seeking relevant papers about how mental health services and policy can evolve in response to the needs of people with complex and trauma-related difficulties, not just research papers (although we like those too!).
Do you know that @BIG_SPD has collaborated with Emerald 'Mental Health Review Journal' which is linked to our membership. Give them a visit. Want to publish your conf presentation? where better to submit than to the journal our membership will have free access to 😊 #BIGSPD23

Desperate people are spending money they don't have for a private autism or ADHD assessment, often at the expense of food. I especially don't like the phenomenon of people paying money they don't have and then being told they need a separately charged ADHD asst without discount.
