Shame on @Aetna & @CVSHealth. They refuse to pay for my Covid vaccine unless I get it in a doctor’s office, which means I’ll have to wait several days and take off work. They won’t let me get the vaccine at a pharmacy. Unethical behavior showing they don’t care about members

Kudos to Dawoon Lee and Micah Sanguyu for presenting at their first national conference. Their study found that Mindfulness and Modification Therapy significantly improved emotion regulation in women referred for anger and substance-use issues - with a large effect size.

Kudos to Jacqueline Douglas for defending her dissertation showing that affective instability and trauma symptoms mediated the relationship of physical/sexual abuse to harmful impulsivity in incarcerated men. Congratulations, Dr. Douglas! @JohnJayResearch @GC_CUNY

You may hear the message to let your child hit rock bottom, yet too many have not bounced back from being left to deal with the problem on their own. Staying connected is safer and will give you a better chance that your child will change.

5/ Many of my colleagues are making *immense* sacrifices. I had offered one of them to see his #covid19 patients for him as he has a family to go home to whereas I live alone- he thanked me, and he moved forward himself to care for his own patients

This is the heart of medicine
