Can anyone on #psychology Twitter help with looking through some AP applications? Been rejected by about 90 different roles over the last 3 years & just got no clue where I’m going wrong. Application seems to go down well everywhere apart from NHS AP roles. – at Camberwell, London

If everyone who is grateful for NHS staff right now followed and retweeted, we would reach a million by midnight. It will take just two seconds to do, and you can help us show NHS staff just how much support they have over this critical winter period.

This is devastating to watch. The U.K. cannot abandon its commitment to #UKAID and helping those in their absolute time of need!

🧚🏻‍♂️ Toxic positivity, which is where people try to turn all thoughts into positive ones, is usually not helpful and can actually make things worse. ✨

Psychology says, pretending to be happy when you are in pain, is just an example of how strong you are as a person.

Small acts of kindness can go a really long way. There is a lot of power in understanding and compassion. A listening ear and a kind word is sometimes all it takes...

By pursuing the wrong public health strategy (mitigation not suppression) and based on a flawed principle (herd immunity via contamination) did the UK government set back the fight against the coronavirus by 7 weeks? What will be the cost of this mistake? bylinetimes.com/2020/03/17/t…
