'Perhaps, despite our desire to be seen as individuals, we’re all just trying to belong somewhere.' 'A growing market is capitalising on the desirability of diagnosis as an indisputable medical claim to uniqueness.' https://t.co/2ZKB705m0H

[Writer - Tracey Higgins @TraceyHiggins92]

The onset of schizophrenia, in the acute phase, is a state of terror. A loss of identity occurs and there is a disintegration of the self. People undergoing this terrifying experience feel like they hang between life and death. They live in a state of survival in the face of enormous fear.

Could we just go back to basics, instead of all this medical jargon that is no help to anyone?

[Carl Hindy, Ph.D. @DrCarlHindy]

As a psychologist I’ve been pleased how the public has become so aware of our field and psychology has become such a large part of our culture. HOWEVER, I’m also concerned that this has caused so many of our contemporary problems to be viewed as personal problems rather than societal problems. Individuals are shouldering more burden and blaming themselves. Will it lead to more social change, or will it inhibit social change. In the long run I believe it will lead to positive change.

What most people dont get:

As DSM diagnoses have no empirical foundation—i.e. biomarkers—to anchor them in reality, they are constituted by the stuff of opinion, claim, agreement

Resultingly, they are highly ripe for sociological forces determining who has what diagnosis & when

My dad has spent the last 4 years getting his PhD while working two full time jobs. He did it because he didn’t want me to be the only Doctor in the family. At the age of 65, world, meet Dr. Emmanuel Uloko 😭 my father, my biggest cheerleader and who I compare every man to.
