On reflection, I suppose it was\nunderstandable, as I had agreed to write a post in a style, which potentially\nbrings my two worlds (i.e. private and professional) together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Allowing people into my \u2018private\u2019 world comes with potential\nrisks.&nbsp; Yet, as a researcher I ask this\nof those that take part in my research. This was my \u2018Eureka\u2019 moment. &nbsp;It was then that I knew that my post needed to\nfocus on a researcher\u2019s perception of \u2018lived experience\u2019 and the important\ncontribution it can make to research. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I took a deep breath, put pen to paper and the words just flowed. It\u2019s written it in a way that hopefully my knowledge, vulnerabilities and \u2018personality shine out.\u2019 It has now been uploaded, on to the NIHR GM PSTRC blog and can be read <a href=\"https:\/\/gmpstrc.wordpress.com\/2020\/06\/17\/suicide-bereavement-the-importance-of-investing-in-lived-experience\/\">here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Moral of the post<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sharing our \u2018lived experience\u2019 and engaging with people in\ndifferent ways can sometimes help to advance understanding and reduce stigma,\nin aspects of our personal\/professional lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>21st June, 2020 Dear Diary A couple of weeks ago I was invited to write a post for the National Institute for Health and Research (NIHR) Greater Manchester Patient Safety<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":465,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[41,53,48],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-464","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-2020-diary","category-nihr","category-https-suicidebereavementuk-com-pabbs-training"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
