Q&A discussion: lots of this work is unfunded; difficulty getting grant funding; frustrations of those with lived experience being asked to comment on research studies and then seeing no changes arising from the suggestions made; validity of measures.

NEW 📰: U.S. #LGBTQ students who reported their school was LGBTQ-affirming had 20% ⬇️ odds of attempting suicide. Yet, Dr. Myeshia Price found that among 19,567 LGBTQ students 46% reported their school was NOT affirming. Simple school support could save lives. @mypreeney

Thank you for sharing! Very proud of this work. Please note that due to the lack of gender data, we weren’t able to include trans people in this analysis

🤔 Ever wondered how economic evaluations measure and attribute value to mental health? Do they do so fairly? I’m excited to announce (to my handful of followers) that my first PhD paper is now available @TheLancetPsych. Free link: authors.elsevier.com/a/1iUfp7tf1d52… 1/6
