UPDATE :
The UK Wide Personality Disorder Spectrum Survey hosted by the Socialist
Health Association has achieved 95 inputs so far from mental health
service Users . We are pushing for the 100 ! We will take the results
to the Care Quality Commission and other bodies.

It was started on May 27th 2009 and has been running since then .
[Possible Triggers follow]
It was primarily inspired by the sad death of Kate Logan
<http://my.nowpublic.com/health/launch-users-personality-disorder-uk-sur\
vey-r-i-p-kate> who passed away after sadly not achieving the kind of
help she wanted - it has also been spurred on by the Story of Tabi
Cockerton " A Fairy a Day keeps Abandonment Away"
<http://my.nowpublic.com/health/tabi-fairy-day-keeps-abandonment-away>
. Tabi suffers severe dissociation.
Allies of Tabi are trying to help her get the treatment she needs after
her Trust appears to have pulled the plug on that . A facebook campaign
<http://apps.facebook.com/causes/328250/29572474?m=e74d8d30> has
started and is backed so far by 204 people . People can sign up to it
and recruit others .
There is no doubt that in some parts of the PD community UK wide there
is a level of great need for help and precious little facilitation of
that sometimes .
