Much needed overhaul of the outdated Mental Health Act in the UK

Mental Health Act 1983 overhaul

Great to see this in the news today and its not before time that this system gets an overhaul. I spoke to Professor Simon Wessely, who's review of the outdated 1983 Mental Health Act forms the basis of the proposals in the White Paper, back in 2008 when I was suffering with severe depression and remember him as a thoughtful, compassionate, reassuring and insightful person who offered me real hope and support. I am sure that his proposals will move us in a really positive and much needed direction.
