CBT- Jen Brea Twitter

I would prefer doctors to simply learn to say: 'Sorry, we don't have an explanation or specific treatment. We will do what we can to help relieve symptoms, and otherwise support you.'

Some do. But most don't. Or aren't allowed to.

This achieves the same goal as rolling out national CBT treatments or rounding patients with complex diseases up into quack diagnoses like MUS, but without the cost or the fuss. It is however a challenge to how the community and doctors think of themselves.

I have come to the conclusion that Twitter is useless, and indeed harmful, to good communication apart from enabling links to sources of good discussion!

I still do not have a twitter account for this reason. However it is very good for sending alerts. Its also very good for live tweeting of important events, as things progress.
