[Submissions ?]

If you are a mental health nurse worker, of any description, and feel you have something you want to contribute to the world via the Internet just leave a comment. If we think the site is right I’ll set up an account that will be able to post new entries. Just leave a comment with some details.

Current

• Oldschoolbaby: Our voice of the common man person Here is what he is like.

• Azulinebloo: A nurse working in an under 65 acute ward with all the usual bureaucracy and budget cuts expected. Constantly attempting (but often failing) to get out, and stay out, of the office.She is like this.

• Cellar_Door: Cellar Door is desperately thinking of something wittier than any of the above to write. Her picture is awaiting the Pickman Test. Turns out she looks like this.

• Mental Nurse: That’s me. Here is what I am like. I have stepped back up to having active involvement in the site. That is I will write some posts every now and then

• DeeDee Ramona: Is not technically a mental health nurse but may well have spent sufficient time in proximity to them to be mistaken for one on a dark night. I am told by Z she looks like this.

• Uselesscpn: Not a mental nurse, but does a good job of pretending. Not really useless either. Looks like this:(awaiting link).

Discharged

• Malcolmroff: Our resident intellectual. Here is what he is like.

• E: E is a homegrown man of mystery normally only seen in a hat and scarf he often tries to discuss Pasta with complete strangers. He looks like this.
