Psychedelic-assisted therapy relies on the synergy between psychedelics and psychotherapy. If psychotherapy is excluded from trials, researchers may struggle to determine its role and effectiveness. https://t.co/Gjakw1CC3e

.@SenJohnKennedy: You support Hamas, do you not?

@AAIUSA's Maya Berry: Hamas is a foreign terrorist organization that I do not support...You asking the executive director of the Arab American Institute that question very much puts the focus on the issue of hate in our country?

[The Mel Jar @the_mel_jar]

Something that’s difficult for people to understand: no one wants to pay this much for therapy, but this is how much therapy costs. This is how much rent and plane tickets and ice cream costs. Your therapist doesn’t need to meet your demands for your personal expenditure choices.

[Jonathan Shedler @JonathanShedler]

In inflation-adjusted dollars, psychologists working under managed care have seen a ~70% drop in insurance reimbursement rates since late 1980s

Other healthcare professions have kept pace with inflation

You can interpret this how you like. But the fact is not open to debate👇

[UC Berkeley Center for the Science of Psychedelics @SciPsychedelics]

Our new study aims to uncover how psilocybin shapes human perception and is the first human subjects research with psychedelics at @UCBerkeley. Insights could optimize psychedelic-assisted therapy & shed light on mysteries of mind, brain, & consciousness.

[Jonathan Shedler @JonathanShedler]

In real (inflation-adjusted) dollars, health insurance companies pay psychologists ~75% less today than in 1980. No other healthcare profession has seen this decline

Of course people cannot access quality psychotherapy

[Max Wolff @trpwolff]

What if psychedelic therapy, even when conceptualized as a drug treatment that is delivered with or without "psychological support", ultimately relies on the same psychological change mechanisms that mediate the efficacy of all effective psychotherapies?

STARVATION: "With only 10% of necessary food supplies entering Gaza since the beginning of the conflict, the Strip now faces a massive food gap and widespread hunger as nearly the entire population is in desperate need of food assistance"

[Rep. Ro Khanna @RepRoKhanna]

I called for a lasting ceasefire, the release of all hostages, evacuation of Americans and family members in Gaza, and American leadership in establishing an independent Palestinian state living side by side with Israel with mutual recognition and peace and security for all.

[MoTaz @motazazaiza9]

Thank you 🙏🏼

[Mark Ruffalo @MarkRuffalo]

No. Sorry. They are not “collateral damage” they are human beings who happen to have been born there and live there and most of those human beings are stuck there. Have some compassion, they are Palestinians not buildings or roads or things, they are human beings and so are the hostages whose lives you may also be destroying. They aren’t “collateral damage” either.

I am - along with rest of the world- praying for peace and the cessation of humanitarian violations and killing of civilians. I am thankful for the friends I made on this platform over the past nearly-4 years and wish you all and the world harmony and kindness. Thank you again.

[American Arab MENA Psychological Association @amenapsy]

Over the last few month, Arab/MENA-identifying students were forced to educate their peers, advisors, and supervisors about the plight of Palestinians. There needs to be better support and stronger training on how to best support Arab/MENA students who are often overlooked.

[Benzi Sanders @BenzionSanders]

Gil Dikman's relatives were kidnapped and murdered by Hamas on October 7th.

Today he went to the Knesset and heard Likud MK @GalitDistel call for Gaza to be annihilated.

Please listen to his response.

[Breaking the Silence @BtSIsrael]

Everyone’s blood is boiling. We all know someone who was murdered, kidnapped, who is still missing. Many are talking about revenge, about erasing Gaza, referring to its residents as “2.5M terrorists,” discussing forcible transfer.

But what's actually happening on the ground?🧵
