🚨 BREAKING: Jim Carrey just went on a rant claiming President Trump is “tearing the country apart,” “destroying institutions,” and acting like a “used car salesman.” Seriously? What’s your response to Jim Carrey? 👀

Sigh. Another day, another meta-analysis which claims that continuing drugs is better than stopping them when they are stopped in 2 weeks or less. The absolute state of this field.

I've spent years exposing what SSRIs actually do. Now I'm exposing the larger system. Psychiatry is one tentacle. Mind control is the body. New series begins now.

@joannamoncrieff Most of these issues apply to the mistreatment, institutionalisation, segregation in locked wards and overmedication of people with #dementia in part due to the harmful labelling #BPSD it is 100% time to #BanBPSD

1) confounding stress and distress with mental disorder; 2) ignoring context 3) the rise of internet self-diagnosis; 4) loose and fuzzily defined diagnostic criteria; 5) careless diagnosis 6) marketing; and 7) tying benefits to diagnosis rather than level of functioning.

It's hard to overstate what an invaluable resource this has been for so many people.

@RpsAgainstTrump He is deeply mentally ill, as well as evil and utterly unfit for office. The 25th Amendment MUST be invoked. Vance and the Congress have no excuse not to rid the country of this disgusting criminal.

This is a real post from Donald Trump on Truth Social. What a sick man.

Most people either overhype AI (“it will write your paper for you”) or dismiss it (“AI can’t help with my research”) The reality lies in "Integration" ⤵️ Here's the process I use: — @scispace turns research questions into instant paper summaries with context-aware Q&A. — @ConsensusNLP searches 200M+ papers and exports your collection to Zotero automatically. — @ChatPDF answers specific questions about your papers with direct quotes & pg # — JANE suggests target journals with impact factors based on your keywords —> @ChatGPTapp for outlines → @jenni for drafts → @Scite for smart citations → @teampaperpal for editing → @anara for final polish. 💬 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝗔𝗜 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗶𝗴𝗴𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗳𝗹𝗼𝘄? ---------------------------------- Click Razia + follow + 🔔 I test AI tools to simplify your #research & #analysis (& 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘵 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮) #aiinresearch

What we call pathology is often protest against conditions that act against the flourishing & well-being of the individual. Conversely, to be 'well-adpated' often means to have sacrificed vital aspects of the self to become one of the demoralised/servile cogs inequality relies on

Asking questions about why we give our gas away for free...

From @NBCNews “We need large, nonindustry funded trials to examine what happens when people stop antidepressants, using various tapering strategies and long enough follow-up,” Cohen said. “We need dozens of such trials now.”

I enjoyed talking to Jenn and Teralyn @TheGaslitTruth. We discussed how reductive it is to think of emotional problems as brain disorders, the dangers of using drugs to suppress emotions, and how little we really know about serotonin, among other things youtube.com/watch?v=MyAlYy…

Study 329 is one of the worst cases of pharmaceutical misconduct ever published. GSK used it to promote Paxil for depressed kids—even though the trial failed and showed increased suicidal behavior.
