Why dont you hold an event on facebook?
Pick a date, invite all your friends to “come and have a go at kicking Rich in the nuts”, then ask all your friends to forward it to their friends and so on.
It could be as big as the tube party on the circle line was at the weekend.
thats not a bad idea then they can section all the nutters in one foul swoop :lol:
2 June, 2008 at 1:00 pm #339511Postnatal psychosis
What is it?
Postnatal psychosis is a severe psychiatric disturbance where a mother becomes “out of touch” with reality after the birth of a baby. Some women may also have thoughts of harming themselves or their baby. They may be not be aware that they are behaving abnormally and will have little control over their behaviour.For many mothers suffering this condition, there has been no previous history of mental illness. It occurs in normal women, living in normal circumstances. It differs from other mental disorders as it appears to be specifically pregnancy-related.
It occurs in about one in 300 pregnancies. The causes of postnatal psychosis are not fully understood, but hormonal and biological imbalances are contributing factors.
It occurs in normal women, living in normal circumstances. It differs from other mental disorders as it appears to be a specifically pregnancy-related psychosis.
What are the symptoms?
This will vary from person to person, but the most common are:over-active and over-enthusiastic behaviour
racy thoughts
grandiose ideas
excessive behaviour (ie, spending, writing, cleaning)
elevated or irritable moods
delusions (false beliefs)
hallucinations (abnormal perceptions)
nightmares
insomnia
decreased need for sleep
difficulty with concentration and coordination
obsessive religious beliefs.
Some of those affected may talk and think with increased rapidity, eventually becoming disjointed and completely irrational.Others may experience severe depressive symptoms, including:
panic attacks
inadequacy
obsessive thoughts
paranoia.
How is it treated?
It is imperative that psychiatric help is sought, because medication is always required for this condition. It does not improve of its own accord. If detected early enough a mother may be treated at home with intensive professional input and support.Adequate supervision must be available because the woman should not be left alone with the baby when she is very unwell. Hospitalisation is often necessary. Ideally, the mother and baby should not be separated to ensure that bonding is established in the early weeks.
The illness usually occurs in the first three months after childbirth, with most occurring in the first two weeks. The first ones to notice that something is wrong are usually family members.
Following the psychotic episode the woman will need considerable support to come to terms with what has happened to her.
Women have a tendency to relapse after initial improvement. Some doctors are less sympathetic than others, and find it difficult to explain the disorder and its treatment. Change your doctor if you feel it is necessary. It takes time, but a full recovery can be made.
There is a chance the condition will recur with further pregnancies, so it is important to seek psychiatric advice and/or counselling before conception so the risk can be reduced. This can be obtained in the public sector. Postnatal psychosis is an acute illness – not a chronic disease.
Seek help from someone who will be sympathetic. Talking about it will probably help, so don’t underestimate your friends.

The mother of two children stabbed to death at their home should have been diagnosed with depression and treated sooner, according to people who knew her.Thirty-five-year-old Sasikala Navaneethan was arrested over the deaths and serious stab injuries suffered by her six-month-old daughter who remains critically ill.
Mrs Navantheen has been detained under the Mental Health Act, and has been in hospital since the incident at her home in Carshalton, Surrey.
Neighbours say they believe Mrs Navaneethan was suffering depression and that someone should have picked up on it sooner.
Angie Silverstein, who works at a motor company near the couple’s grocery shop in Coulsdon, said: “She was very unhappy, she always looked very sad.
“Now looking back, everyone said she was miserable, now I feel really sorry for her. She just looked sad and lost, and she obviously was.
“It’s a shame that somebody, a GP or someone didn’t diagnose anything. What has shocked everyone is that it got to this point.”
Mrs Navantheen’s five-year-old boy and four-year-old daughter died in hospital after they were found injured at their home.
Her other baby daughter is in a critical but stable condition in hospital after an operation.
The children’s father, 39-year-old Navarajah Navaneethan, has been released without charge.
He is said to be a hard-working man who spent most of his time at the couple’s Best Save Food and Wine shop in Coulsdon.
“He was always open from seven in the morning and would work until 10 or 11 at night, seven days a week,” said Ms Silverstein.
“I’m pretty sure that he was open on Christmas day too, but he was always happy. He was really bubbly, really nice, and the children always seemed so happy.
“But the mum was in a little world of her own. I can see now that she was depressed.”
