I am a physician, but this account is mostly for meaningless ranting.

@erertz_yisrael @sparkle0100 like they do in the west bank?

@Jane_Fisher2 great writing. Totoally agree mental health needs to be as personal as possible, while still trying to see if folks are in a pattern that has been studied, and there may be an evidence based intervention for, but all needs to be formulated and applied for a particular patient.

@robwipond to study the effect of involuntary commitment you'd have to be privy to alternate histories if they did not occur. Certainly more suicides and waffle house type shootings would occur, as these are the the sort of life threatening plans for which people are committed.

@awaisaftab @robwipond I can't believe he said the thing about the poisons in the house like it was meaningful. No concept of how delusions work, are diagnosed, collateral supported, and any concept of actual psychopathology and expertise in diagnostics. Clearly wipond has zero clinical experience.

@itsmelissabrown ooh interesting. Maybe the ticket to them dropping it.

@brotherjones_ are they expelling you? What is happening today at 5? What can we do to help?

@BenStiller based on the new cancer data- you were on the right side of history by coming out and discussing the value of PSA screening. I bet PSA screening comes back as a grade A recc.

@maiab "doctors are power freaks" what a pointless generalization. This is not true, doctors are extremely compassionate largely. If they just wanted money and power and didnt care about people they'd go into finance or tech- spaces where consumers are truly hurt.

[Father Mimeograph @FatherMime]

@maiab doctors know infinitely more than non physicians- who do not know how to work through a differential diagnosis. Manipulating what you are experiencing is one, factitious disorder, and 2- an extremely fast road to a misdiagnosis. This is FUCKING HORRIBLE AND DANGEROUS ADVICE.

@MandaravaN no actually, psychiatry is where the most caring people in medicine go. We could make way more elsewhere with simpler patients after medical school.

#janssen's #disruptthedecline campaign is clearly all about making more money. There are so many things to do to promote stability and prevent relapse in Schizophrenia- they ONLY talk abt LAIs-ie not actually committed to the cause, just to the capital to be made.

@nathanfielder the character you play would make an excellent sociopath! So clever and manipulative (and hilarious of course).

@TulsiGabbard biological reality of gender is spectrum, there are ppl between male and female from chromosomes, due to X/Y translocation, XY females, XX Males, XXY, klinefelters- then onto gene expression- hormones, onto neural networks and self concept.gender is a spectrum not an either or.

@morganstephensa Ptsd trauma needs to be a criterion A trauma- life threatening for you or something you directly witnessed. Cptsd is from prolonged upregulation in your hpa axis, without being in fight or flight frequently this doesn’t happen. Prolonged cognitive issues do not really qualify.

@MandaravaN Nothing major in terms of sleep wake /feeding.

The connection between neurotropic viruses and psychotic sx is well established and has been for sometime. Most of it is likely inflammatory cascades and not the direct effect of the virus. Before the pandemic psychiatrists studied recent coronavirus infections and psychosis.

@INDOT hey our cars have not moved for over 1 hour, not one inch at mile marker 254 on 65 north. What is this complete incompetence. Cara are running f out of gas, children are screaming, this is utter municipal failure.

@nayibbukele bukele hates trump.

If in a trigger law state:
1. Buy pregnancy tests now, before you need them.
2. If late on your period, use test bought before.
3. If positive, leave state to friendly state, ideally where you have family.

You don't want to go buy a test, google, then travel.

Abortions are not over the counter- mifepristone and misoprostol, and procedural abortions are done in concert with an expert physician, using clinical judgement. This is not just women's rights, but also a major invasion of the doctor-patient relationship. #MedTwitter
