Re: The young, and Mental health problems.

No, it was a follow-up to that one Ianto, where they were considering a proposal to analyse the potentiality of someone committing an offence so they could be locked away before they do.

Perhaps this is a further solution to the paedophile issue then? That would rightfully make sense. Or those who are suicidal, dont they already get sectioned?

Looking at ships ... it's the mispeling that confuses you.

Ah lol I didnt realise it was meant to mean looking at ships. I honestly thought she meant looking at our own belly buttons. I remember the girls at school who had their belly buttons pierced used to poke at it alot :)

Quite possibly a suggested solution to the paedophile problem but I'm not sure we can justify locking people up when they have committed no crime.

I'm not sure what the situation is with people who are suicidal. I knew a young girl who voluntarily admitted herself to the old BRI ward and boy was that a depressing place.

Not these days... I know 2 women recently who have massively overdosed, neither of whom were sectioned. The NHS no longer has enough beds in mental health units to section every suicide attempt. A sad state of the NHS at the moment, if money is needed for Med/Surg it is taken from Mental Health and Maternity Services.

Re: The young, and Mental health problems.

Funny thing about the suicidal girl I mentioned - she had a serious accident and it changed her whole life. All thoughts of suicide were gone after she'd had the unexpected brush with death. She fought for life and won.

And lettie I never thought about the lack of money in regards to sectioning suicidal people, its a shame really.

A young woman jumped off the bus station in Blackpool last night. I accept what lettie say's in regard to the state of the NHS.

Re: The young, and Mental health problems.

I agree that a lot of attempted suicides are a cry for help but some people, like the one Doug just mentioned simply want an end to a life they cannot cope with.

i work in mental health and it id difficult to get mental health problems diagnosed. some people have to wait months and somtimes years to get a proper diagnosis. it is time this changed then people didnt have to suffer to long;)

Naval is to do with the navy.....Navel is to do with the belly button or more properly called the umbilicus.

Did you intentionally mean the belly button then?

Really! Ah, so naval surgeon now makes more sense. I didn't think doctors had become THAT specialized:D
