@matoutmd @cz_binance Thank you for the recommendation! It is greatly appreciated.

One of the most important ways we can improve outcomes for those struggling with #mentalillness is by supporting entrepreneurs in getting breakthroughs, such as the @OneMindOrg Accelerator, into the hands of the people that need them faster.

(1/3) We just had an energizing few days in D.C. talking about policy change with @IAmInseparable at their strategy summit, and meeting with elected officials and staff on Capitol Hill.

At a time when people with serious mental illness are more likely to experience incarceration or homelessness than the mental health care they need, @DrPeterBuckley’s and @thomasinselmd’s insights have never been more important. #AAMC22 aamc.org/news-insights/…

“‘Recovery? It’s the three Ps. It’s people, place and purpose.’ He was describing the road map to a full and meaningful life. And the road to recovery, to these three Ps, does not run simply through clinics and hospitals.”

We know that neuropsychiatric disorders create the greatest burden on the health of communities and individuals, we know the treatments, yet outcomes are worsening... @thomasinselmd shares his wisdom on the path forward for #aamc22

Homeless individuals with mental illness can be forced down the path of food insecurity. Access to food and shelter is a human right. Combine meeting these basic needs with mental health services, and we can improve this community's health and well-being. #HHWeek

#ATLANTA folks: want to come to a really great in-person book event on Tuesday night that's NOT about the #Midterms? I'm going to be at the @CarterCenter
interviewing the super-compelling Dr. Thomas Insel about his book Healing: Our Path from Mental Illness to #MentalHealth.

Once again, in 2021, more service members died by suicide than any other cause. We've lost more service members to suicide than combat every year since 2011. On #VeteransDay, we need to honor all who have served.

This NYT letter to the editor caught my attention. Ann's right. What we are doing now is not sustainable. Funding recovery needs to be a top priority so community-based services can thrive. @VannaHealth is creating innovative funding mechanisms for recovery for people with SMI.

Thank you for this thorough review of Healing in @PsychTimes, Dr. Alarcón! psychiatrictimes.com/view/important…

Is the difference because men are struggling more, or are they more likely to use lethal means like firearms? The CDC data show that men are more likely to use firearms when they are #suicidal.

#brilliant insights to how people can experience recovery and living well with #mentalhealth via 3 P's = people + place + purpose; this #AspenIdeas video with @thomasinselmd is a great summary of his book youtube.com/watch?v=f96auN… ht: @ubenthinking

More than 14 million Americans live w/ a serious mental illness, yet current systems of care often fall short. Former @NIMHgov Director @ThomasInselMD offers a pathway toward recovery built around the 3 Ps—people, place & purpose. More ➡️ bit.ly/3CJcunX #AspenIdeasHealth

Does less sleep result in worse mental health? While correlation is not causation, CDC data suggest a growing problem with both sleep and #mentalhealth in youth.

@DeborahGeesling Great points, esp about need to include families. There is no magic bullet. Peers, coaches, clubhouses, ACT teams, families are all part of the team needed. Vanna Health is trying to bring these services together so they can be paid for as recovery care.
English

With respect for Dr. Insel, some follow up thoughts. Our state does pay for peer services. More on that in thread below.
Dr. Insel (may be?) naively parroting what he hears from inside the behavioral health industrial complex. 1/ #SMITwitter

The economic cost of schizophrenia in the US was an estimated $343.2 billion in 2019, double the cost in 2013. Yes, schizophrenia is expensive, and yet we are still not paying for recovery services like clubhouses and peer support. Investing in recovery will reduce the cost.

With comprehensive, high-quality care—care that includes people, place, and purpose—people can heal. #mentalillness

Allowing room for discovery is critical during youth, as is having people, place, and purpose. Great piece by @Nature! nature.com/articles/d4158…
