A 'professional confessional' from Elliot Sweeney, a mental health nurse who works on the frontline of mental health services. His touching and often humorous memoir lifts the lid on the realities of the profession, in an attempt to highlight the need for compassion for some of the most vulnerable people in the world, and the very committed people that work with them on a professional basis. This book is for anyone who wants to know what it's really like to work in contemporary mental health services in the UK, and why people like Elliot stick at it.
