@chrisaikenmd Surprised tomatoes made the list, the rest reads like a snack you'd skip if you wanted to actually fall asleep.

Do melatonin-rich foods improve sleep?
Yes, a little, concludes this analysis of 19 studies:

Top foods: Tart cherry, kiwi, tomatoes, milk, pistachios, goji berries, saffron, and pomegranate.

@ChrisPalmerMD The metabolic side usually shows up at the cardiologist's office, not as part of the prescribing conversation.
English
Evidence-based treatments for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder often lead to increases in LDL cholesterol.
We offer them to millions of patients anyway.

@KatiMorton Going when things are stable, you have bandwidth to actually do the work, in crisis mode all you can do is patch.
English
We often treat therapy like an ER.
Only go when it’s really bad.
But the real work happens before the crisis… You don’t have to wait until you’re drowning to get help 💛 #mentalhealth #therapy youtu.be/k1O_B7sq5kk?si…

@SusanDavid_PhD The tell is that finishing a have-to goal brings relief, never satisfaction, and I kept calling that motivation.
English
Have-to goals are imposed on us, perhaps by a friend, partner, boss, or even our own sense of obligation. When we pursue them, we’re usually driven by a desire to avoid shame and keep up appearances.
English
@drjenwolkin When the systems that quietly carried you for 20 years stop working, it feels like falling apart, not a diagnosis.
English
For many women, ADHD was never absent, it was managed. It was held together by structure, urgency, and years of compensation. That worked until it didn’t. As hormonal and neurochemical shifts occurs, the strategies that once held everything together often stop working. If this is you, you’re not imagining it. XO, Dr. Jen

@NTFabiano Hard to tell which way the arrow points here, scrolling because the brain is tired or tired because of the scrolling.
English
Being addicted to your phone is associated with decreased brain volume and activity.

@GuyWinch The worst part is realizing they take up more headspace at 11pm than my own actual life does.
English
@SteliosKiosses Noticed the inner critic gets loudest right before something I've been avoiding starts to surface, like a doorman.
English
We judge ourselves most when we’re afraid to feel.
The mind interferes with rules, criticism, and control — yet the heart already knows the truth.

@HBowdenJonesOBE @rcpsych @CNWLNHS @imperialcollege @ActionAddiction Doing the emotional work of an adult at age 9 doesn't end at age 9, it just starts looking like personality later.

@DrJonGoldin @RcpsychCAP @BPSOfficial @IFT_london @RCPCHtweets @rcpsych @YoungMindsUK @barnardos By the time the CAMHS appointment finally arrives, the child waiting for it has already become someone else.
English
Sadly what I said in 2016 is still very true. #CAMHS is woefully underfunded and under resourced. This has to change for the benefit of our young people and future generations.

@RossGWhite @louistheroux The pull toward online figures usually fills a gap nobody around the kid actually filled in real life.

@LFeldmanBarrett Putting a feeling on paper turns it into something you can react to, instead of something only spinning inside.

An interesting relationship between the theory of constructed emotion and art therapy. #ArtTherapy brooklynrail.org/2024/12/books/…

@MichaelZiffraMD What got lost isn't focus, it's the patience to sit with one thing until it actually means something.
English
I’m featured in this story in the Milwaukee Independent on how modern technology is negatively affecting our attention spans.

“When my patients talk to me about this stuff, there is often a feeling of helplessness or powerlessness,” said @MichaelZiffraMD, a #psychiatrist at @NorthwesternMed. “But you can change these behaviors. You can improve your #AttentionSpan.” @mkeind milwaukeeindependent.com/featured/digit…

@DrMatthewPugh @BABCP @psychmag @ISSTOnline @CompMindFound Voicing the inner critic out loud changes what you can do with it, in a way pure conversation rarely does.

@DrBeckySpelman @SamiTimimi Trend graphs on ADHD don't really help with the only question that matters when you're the one wondering.
English
ADHD diagnoses have risen dramatically in recent years.
But what does the evidence actually say about diagnosis and medication?
Tomorrow at 7pm on my YouTube UK, psychiatrist @SamiTimimi joins psychologist Dr Becky Spelman for a live discussion + audience Q&A.

@FallonRGoodman @TEDx Most people file social anxiety under personality and never check if it's something that could actually ease up.
English
Social anxiety is one of the most common mental health conditions worldwide.
Why?
In my @TEDx talk - now featured on TED.com - I dig into the sources of social anxiety and offer practical tips for being your authentic self in any situation.

@AlanCarson15 The cost of getting the first referral wrong is mostly paid by the patient, in years of wrong appointments.
English
This is a core issue and a very important - our neurology dept reviews and sometimes redirects referrals but it is done by the two most experienced consultants - that way everyone feels confident. The eye doesn’t see what the mind doesn’t know
Dr Luke Evans MP@drlukeevans
Your GP says you should see a hospital specialist for your condition Labour’s new Single Point of Access now decides whether that GP referral goes through They have a target to "redirect" 25% of referrals I wanted to know: who is making that decision? I asked the Minister 👇

@JEK_Psych What scares me is how reasonable 'someone else will handle it' sounds in the moment, even when you're the someone.
English
The ‘Bystander Effect’ is an additional revolting thing in this story. For several people to barely feel the need to intervene in the face of a blatant assault on a vulnerable person! This is the world we live in on an individual and geopolitical scale. Expect more of this.
Al Jazeera English@AJEnglish
Israeli police say a 36-year-old Jewish man has been arrested over this assault on a French nun in occupied East Jerusalem. Video shows her being shoved to the ground and kicked, renewing concern over violence against Israel’s religious minorities.
