@italianinvesto great find

[USA TODAY @USATODAY]

After stopping antidepressants, this 23-year-old said she experienced a “chemical castration." What to know about PSSD, according to experts. https://t.co/jfG3KoxoMq

@angryhacademic @masksaregood @AlanLevinovitz Michael Donnino (who is running the randomized LC study) had his pain cured permanently this way. Unfortunately only people who experience this believe it. I wish it was easier to explain

@TheRayMyers tesla

[Hoping Flower @Hopingflower]

@Lizzardo77 yeah an ID doctor that recovered from LC decided to turn into a virtual sexual harasser. Very believable. You don’t believe you have the power to change your brain but you believe this c*ap (referring to the allegations)

[Hoping Flower @Hopingflower]

@Bettje37 @NeleHelena “us” is also me. I recovered this way. My story matters. I lost 2 years of my life because all of the hate on X towards mind-body medicine. Give me back these years

@hannahspierMD you need to work on your message. Right words matter

[Hoping Flower @Hopingflower]

@angryhacademic @masksaregood @AlanLevinovitz They educated the patients on how the pain was a stuck nerve circuit in the brain, they taught them how to react to the symptoms (breathing,love,tracking,visualization) and also helped them with emotional expressive writing. Pain gone. Permanently. In majority of pts. No drugs

[Hoping Flower @Hopingflower]

@angryhacademic @masksaregood @AlanLevinovitz in both randomized studies I gave you the chronic back pain of people disappeared in a large percentage. That's not just helpful. That's a cure

[Hoping Flower @Hopingflower]

@angryhacademic @masksaregood @AlanLevinovitz I think the reason we cannot agree is that you cannot accept the remote possibility that the subconscious brain can actually drive real disease. I didn't believe it either until my extremely severe ME/CFS disappeared. Anyhow it was great talking to you

[Hoping Flower @Hopingflower]

@BadMedicalTakes he is correct

[Hoping Flower @Hopingflower]

@NeleHelena sorry you had this experience but this is simply not true for mind-body medicine as a whole. Also I know several people that took a couple of times for it to work eventually for them. It is not an easy game trying to convince your subconscious brain to cease being on alert mode

[Hoping Flower @Hopingflower]

@DocPriyamMD condescending towards students. You could have omitted the second paragraph altogether

[Hoping Flower @Hopingflower]

@simonmaechling sadly experts are often wrong. It has happened to every one of us: we trusted a professional only for them to screw up. Doubt and debate is healthy as long as both sides can engage

[Hoping Flower @Hopingflower]

he just failed the citizenship civics test. Really scary

[The Bulwark @BulwarkOnline]

Sen. Murphy to Mullin: "Will you or will you not implement court orders?"

Mullin: "If we didn't think courts were politicized, then I would probably be able to answer that. But we see courts over and over again that use their bench for their political opinion, not just the rule of law."

Murphy: "...If you're a Republic or a Democrat on this committee, you should be really, really freaked out."

[Hoping Flower @Hopingflower]

@angryhacademic @masksaregood @AlanLevinovitz Sure here is the literature (mostly on chronic pain for the time being, soon randomized on LC, same therapy)
