A huge thank you to Yvette Vella and the incredible Sydney Organising Committee who worked tirelessly on another amazing NBPSA Annual Conference. Online or in person it was wonderful to be able to participate in #NBPSA22 A Successful Journey.

Day 3 - starting it right focusing on perfectionism, overcommitment and imposter syndrome! @ithinkwellHugh @nbpsa #NBPSA22 #paediatriciaessons

[David Newman @DavidNewman60]

Great workshop by Hugh Kearns on Managing Yourself and Your Career. Imposter syndrome, procrastination, mentoring and coaching. #NBPSA22

[Jin Russell @DrJinRussell]

It’s fantastic hearing from Prof Valsamma Eapen at #NBPSA22 discuss management of childhood tics.

Prof Eapen’s recent @bmj_latest review paper can be found here, https://t.co/QNHYfZnB5w

Hats off to the organising committee for an extremely high quality programme

@paediatrician I strongly recommend outdoor activity, any activity, to my families. It can be so centering and calming, and is a low cost, medication free, intervention that can be done anywhere.

Dr Michael McDowall discusses our ongoing supervision arrangement in Private Practice where we bring our challenging situations to the #brainstrust
It is an arrangement all involved continue to value and prioritise as much as possible.

@NatJMorgan @nbpsa Absolutely support this framework. It is very helpful in working with families in supporting function and agency for them and their child, and visa versa

[Mandira @DrMandiH]

The key questions are - what is the pattern and keep asking is it treatable? @nbpsa #diagnosistime #NBPSA22

Apropos of Helen Templeton's talk on complex behaviours I offer this slide from one of my own talks.. #NBPSA22

Moving to a strengths based focus #NBPSA22

[David Newman @DavidNewman60]

@kaisersammi0 "To sleep, perchance to dream, aye there's the rub..." Brains need all phases of sleep, in appropriate quantum for that nervous system and environmental context.

[David Newman @DavidNewman60]

@kaisersammi0 Semiology of behaviour is as important as that of epilepsy. Detailed sequential description precedes and informs synthesis and planning for appropriate intervention(s)

[David Newman @DavidNewman60]

I would love to download Annie's mind! What a tour de force. I now need to review several patients urgently 🙄

[Jin Russell @DrJinRussell]

At #NBPSA22, the room is packed to hear Dr Annie Bye giving a tour-de-force of infantile and childhood regression, covering everything from nutritional, epileptic, metabolic, genetic, immune, autistic causes of regression. Standing room only. Incredible learning happening!

Welcoming Dr David Dossetor to #NBPSA22! David is a child psychiatrist with a special interest in intellectual disability and ASD at the Sydney Children’s Hospital Network @SCHNkids

[Brad Jongeling @paediatrician]

Excitement builds for the #nbpsa22 conference. @nbpsa Are you here?

[David Newman @DavidNewman60]

@DrMandiH @elise_dabaco I know! Best conference buffet in years!

[David Newman @DavidNewman60]

#NBPSA22 Amazing lunch at the conference. I am so happy!

[David Newman @DavidNewman60]

#NBPSA22 @NBPSA Pearl of wisdom from A/Prof Jill Sewell OAM, we should stick to our knitting and be the doctor for our patients. That is our skillset, our training and our focus so where we have the most to offer.

[Dr Ruth Surman @Dr_Raffles]

Ass Prof Michael McDowall:Thinking of Developmental Paediatrics as a "set of purposes"

1) recognising & addressing the biology & the science
2) managing the immediate distress
3) optimising the long-term trajectory for a young person and their family
