Arts organisations must stand in solidarity with disabled artists to protest cuts to benefits which threaten not only our livelihoods - but our lives.
If theatre companies put out a statement of solidarity, what would you like it to say?

The more I read the disability reforms green paper, the more it feels akin to:
"We've decided to drive a truck into a huge crowd of people. We're not consulting on that decision, but we invite responses on what mitigations we should put in place for those affected."
If you are part of a theatre company or other arts organisation, or an artist, it would be reassuring to disabled artists to feel seen and valued at this horrible time #welfarenotwarfare

Hi there 😊
NHS #mentalhealth care. Can you relate?
Psychiatry is patriarchy on steroids
Most people living with #mentalillness have at least one horror story about an arrogant d*ck of a psychiatrist. Do you?

Now in my 40s, I’m left wondering: what happened to the hopeful, ambitious 18 year old I used to be?
I feel like the hare in Aesop’s fable, who loses the race to the tortoise because he goes too fast & then crashes
That’s what #bipolar disorder feels like, over & over… Do you agree?

Dear Customer Service, I would like to cancel my free trial of #bipolar disorder.

I’m doing Instagram live with Bipolar UK tomorrow (Fri 6th December) at 3pm UK time
Be good to see you there! Is anyone around? Checking who’s aware of/up for it!
Also, please share!
Probably chat about making a show about bipolar/psychosis, Bipolar UK Mood Tracker app & Advance Choice Docs.
Why I’m glad I stayed. And why you should

I didn’t think I’d make it to 25. Diagnosed with bipolar disorder at 19, it felt like my life was over. But I’m so glad I stayed
#mentalhealth X What are your reasons for staying?

@skynewsrss.bsky.social Stop telling people not to get r@ped and instead, tell people not to r@pe! #drinkspiking
My #neurodivergent brain did not come with an instruction manual
I though it was defective. It would spark and flash and sometimes, crash. But…

Yes please!
Hope you’re ok 💚
Thank you 😊
Ending up as a #mentalhealth patient in the sort of group I used to lead has been a big fear of mine.
This week, that fear was realised. Who else is facing something tricky this week?

Hey there. Bipolar and possibly other things. Also make theatre. Good to meet you 😊
Yeah, there’s so little funding here that we usually end up wearing several theatre hats, doing more than one job!
