Engaging presentation from @SophieH_Li on the influence of active and passive social media use on mood, finding both can alleviate low mood. Challenges assumptions about the harms of social media! #SMHR2023

Parents are very interested in using medicinal cannabis for their child's behavioural and #mentalhealth but paediatricians are hesitant. We need more research and guidance for clinicians to prescribe and inform parents of the risks and benefits @SMHR #smhr2023

Incredible plenary by Prof Helen Milroy to start off #SMHR2023 @SMHR Thinking about what I can do to close the third space & build strong bridges in my work moving forward.
