Hello. Since I hadn’t posted an update for a little while, I wanted to mention two important initiatives that may be of interest. Petition to the Welsh Government. Firstly, Stevie Lewis has started a petition aimed at the Welsh Assembly Government which seeks to raise awareness of the number of people dependent on prescribed drugs. This petition partners a recent petition to the Scottish Government and the work being undertaken by the Council for Evidence-Based Psychiatry. You don't need to be Welsh or live in Wales to sign, please consider adding your name to the list. The petition can be a little temperamental, so if it doesn’t work first time, please try again, thank you. You can find out more and sign here: https://www.assembly.wales/en/gethome/e-petitions/Pages/petitiondetail.aspx?PetitionID=1235 Launching the RxISK Prize. Secondly, you may have seen that Dr David Healy’s organisation, Data Based Medicine, has launched a campaign to raise $100,000 as a Prize for finding a cure of one of the most debilitating side effects of modern medical treatments – the close to permanent obliteration of normal sexual functioning stemming from treatment with antidepressants, finasteride (Propecia) or isotretinoin (Accutane). Since starting in September, the campaign has raised close to $11,000. Please consider donating if you can, this is incredibly important work. You can find out more here: https://rxisk.org/launching-the-rxisk-prize/ Thank you, as always, for your support, encouragement and signatures. Best wishes James
