@AdJongh Focusing on symptoms rather than causes is how western medicine has always dealt with chronic conditions - both mental and physical. It's so normal that people hardly question it. Such a shame.
English
It is incomprehensible that, given the serious damage in their childhood that people with personality disorders report, existing therapies are mainly concerned with how to learn to cope with their problems and have so far hardly been focused on - or interested in - processing the past.
English
@deniseminger So hard sometimes to tease apart our authentic selves from our trauma adaptations!
English
The problem with advice to "just be yourself" is that most people conflate "self" with personality, and personality is mostly scripts/stories/trauma responses that block the self from full expression.
English
@juli_bg_bs Totally agree! In my mind it's virtually all environmental. Trauma begets trauma, and things like ADHD are actually coping strategies gone awry. Western medicine's tendency to treat symptoms rather than causes is a real tragedy.
English
@tbaranski Agree. I am not saying people imagine their struggles. But the Why is important. Basically I don't believe all of this is mutations or genetics. Something about physical or social environments or both.

A US🇺🇸 child often ends up with multiple labels by adulthood.
It is very...unfortunate to stigmatize all kinds of people on the "human spectrum". At the same time, it is true that many people are broken, detached, unavailable, in turmoil. I blame consumarism & bad parenting🙄

Depression has always been with us, which will surprise absolutely no one except those who are completely ignorant of the history of psychology.

@SameiHuda From my Hammond’s _A Treatise on Diseases of the Nervous System_ (D. Appleton and Company, 1873), Chap. XV, “Insanity”. Melancholia is at the top of the list. Depression has been, and always will be, with us, at least until we put ADs in the drinking water. 🤤

@juli_bg_bs You can see it in his eyes already - absolutely terrified.

What kind of childhood trauma turns this 👇 into monster?! ☹️

@NS_online Hi there, my order #60825576 did not process properly. It was for Den Bosch to Breda on April 11th, but the ticket in the email says it's from Amsterdam to Rotterdam today, and it also has another name in it. Can you cancel and refund this order?
English
@juli_bg_bs Useful indeed! Suddenly the incomprehensible starts to make sense
English
@tbaranski Right. I have been musing about these things a lot in the last few years, because "healthy" is just so...easy...for me 🤷♀️Hard to comprehend the opposite...and it is useful to understand.
English
I am yet to understand how such people👇 attract anyone🙄Even Melania🤷♀️
George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸@gtconway3d
He's an evil, soulless, lawless, amoral, immoral, conscienceless, and remorseless narcissist, psychopath, and criminal. That's all you need to know.

@PsychNiles Interesting to see folks hanging their hats on significance here when the effect wasn't even small - it was below small.
English
@juli_bg_bs Looking at where our society's hyper-rationalism has gotten us, one can pretty easily rationally argue against more rationalism 🤔😬
English
@tbaranski All I do is defending myself because I CAN'T BE RATIONAL whatsoever🤣🤣
English
Very interesting text😇
"Our brain is hardwired, and guarantees that we feel first and think second"
Recommend: we need to become more rational
I disagree. Numbing feelings will makes us robots🤖
I *believe* nurturing empathy is the key. Put yourself in others' shoes 😁👞👠

Breve texto sobre como o cérebro evoluiu p lidar com riscos imediatos, como fome e perigo, não com os riscos atuais, como obesidade e mudanças climáticas. O tema envolve pontos como a sociedade enfrenta a corrupção, decisões judiciais etc. #NeuroLaw bit.ly/3lJR45j

@notdred What about people who sarcastically reply-all to tell everyone to stop replying-all?
English
@notdred Incredible coincidence that this study showing massive outdoor spread to 13 people nearby - and another 20 further away via apparent quantum viral entanglement - comes from the only country in the world still mandating lockdowns.
English
@FoodieScience Love this story! Makes me feel better about my complete lack of aversion towards sweating (e.g. on daily walks).
English
After reporting this story I have been trying love and listen to my sweat more. If I'm a bit stinky it means I'm stressed and need to chill out... take a break ... or try to avoid the person causing that stress.

Hello Immunology Twitter: Who's the best person to talk to about cross-reactive antibodies? Or does anybody have the time for a 10 minute interview?

@FrogHarmless @sguyenet None, but the notion that coffee has health benefits is in my view likely in this same category - wishful thinking by caffeine addicts.
English
@tbaranski @sguyenet What illness do you think coffee causes?
English
More evidence that light alcohol intake probably doesn't protect the heart. This new study suggests alcohol increases cardiovascular risk at all levels of intake.
This is the latest observational U/J-curve to bite the dust.

In @JAMANetworkOpen, our work led by @KiranBiddinger uses observational and genetic epidemiology in large biobanks to re-examine an age-old question: What is the association of alcohol intake and cardiovascular disease? jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

@KrishnaAragam @JAMANetworkOpen @kiranbiddinger @connoremdin @maryehaas @wallacemwang @patrick_ellinor @skathire @amitvkhera @MGHHeartHealth @broadinstitute Impeccable, thank you. This notion of alcohol being healthy was pure fantasy/wishful-thinking all along. People love thinking that their drugs-of-choice are healthy. I suspect coffee will be next.
