Mental illness is a brain disorder? Right?

We thought so.

Hang on though, our new study @JAMAPsych shows that poor body health is a more pronounced manifestation of mental illness than poor brain health.

Here's how to do it:

Had an incredible weekend at the @ASAMorg conference as a Ruth Fox Memorial Scholar recipient.  Learned so much about #addictionmedicine, esp for patients facing barriers in accessing services. Excited to continue these collaborations to help provide optimal care to our patients

Ever wondered how many symptoms make up all of adult psychopathology described in the DSM-5? It’s 628!

How many do you think repeat across multiple diagnoses? If you answered 231 symptoms repeating a total of 1022 times (median 3 times per symptom, range 2-22), good job!
