    Until today, 99% convinced that we need more services for alcohol use disorders in older people.After seeing a patient today and carrying out a lengthy assessment that combined my addictions & old age psychiatry skills, it’s gone up to 100%. Change is long overdue.

    Personality disorder was a recurrent theme of this year's faculty conference. What does Twitter believe needs to be done to improve understanding and the care of this group?

    tells time to find another way of describing personality disorder.

    The Faculty will certainly be responding to this guidance. What do members or followers think about the CPS's guidance, and what the Faculty should be saying in our response? Link to the consultation's terms of reference and more info:

    We are launching our consultation on legal guidance concerning mental health conditions and disorders tomorrow, 12th March, and I am due to be interviewed on BBC TV Breakfast at 0720 and Radio 4 Today programme at 0750.

    In Austria is a system of tiered responsibility: full resp when you go to prison; partial resp where the mental disorder impacts resp, and complete irresponsibility (equ to diminshed resp in UK) where judge wd consider if there's an illness-related disorder

    In Austria they don't have a system of fitness to plead and it is not necessary to enter a plea, is told. There are many legal differences between the 2 countries, although the pathway an individual goes through is not necessarily so different.

    In many ways he would be treated similarly, hears - he would probably have been sent to a high secure unit for around 10 years, though he would not have been on conditional discharge for as long.

    Feeling very similar Derek, reading through some of the applications today. What a bright future there is for psychiatry and the people we help with such fabulous students who are so passionate about . Agreed ?

    So impressed by the complexity and balance of the five outstanding medical student presentations conference in Vienna. The future of psychiatry is bright with this calibre.
