More than 5.6 BILLION people took the COVID vaccines. If there was a mass dying wave, miscarriages and stillbirths, cardiac issues, or anything else, we have more than enough data to show those things. But they never happened! They're not real, they're a neurotic delusion.

Roz is the best! She deserves all this attention and more.

Cool new mechanistic paper that supplements past research correlating Li in drinking water with lower dementia risk (doi.org/10.1177/000486…) and demonstrating lower dementia risk in people prescribed lithium therapy (doi.org/10.1159/000538…). We now have good causality to show

🧵When Patients Feel Harmed by Treatment - Is There More to the Story? 🚨 1/21 This will get backlash. It’s not about denying harm. It’s about understanding how harm is experienced, amplified, encoded, and communicated and how that understanding can help people move

2/Are patients harmed by medications? Yes. Medical harm is real. Mistakes happen. But this post is about something deeper when psychiatric meds, often SSRIs or antipsychotics, become the SOLE explanation for every difficulty in a person’s life, with mismatched or

Tourette 2025 Update: new insights, new tools and new hope in the latest issue of AAN's Continuum by Jessica Frey. Do you know all the new treatments? Do you the 11 common myths about Tourette? Did you know that the most harmful effects frequently come from misunderstanding and

OK, come on now. This has actually become a satire of reality. And at the time when my resident union is trying to renegotiate contracts with the university, I'm sure they won't even want to give us a cost-of-living raise with this ridiculousness... 🤡🎉 politico.com/news/2025/08/0…

Why do alpha brain waves slow with age — and why does it depend on where in the brain? 🧠⚡️ MEG + modelling (n=607) show: 🔹 Occipital alpha → corticothalamic-driven 🔹 Frontal alpha → corticocortical-driven 🔹 Ageing → slower alpha, circuit shifts 🔗 doi.org/10.1101/2025.0…

Hi everyone, I am excited to share a new publication with you. This is an analysis of the National Emergency Department Sample (NEDS) investigating catatonia presenting to the emergency department. We had quite a large sample size - here is a 🧵 about what we found.

Clozapine works in treatment resistant (TR) schizophrenia, but what about TR schizoaffective? A new randomized trial supports it there: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/40746110 Anyone using clozapine in schizoaffective?

Absolutely unbelievable: the sitting HHS Secretary tried to pressure the Annals of Internal Medicine to retract the major Danish study of 1.2 M kids that found no harm from aluminum in vaccines. The journal refused. This isn’t just anti-science it is political interference.

Catatonia Pharmacotherapy: The Role of Benzodiazepines This video discusses new consensus guidelines. It covers specific dosing strategies and reveals why lorazepam remains preferred over other benzodiazepines. psychopharmacologyinstitute.com/section/catato…

"autistic and non-autistic people did not differ in their ability to share information with others of the same neurotype" but "this study did not find the expected breakdown in information transmission in mixed-neurotype interactions" journals.plos.org/plosone/articl… 3-site UK & US study

Another large-scale null finding for the "experimental support for double-empathy" literature. Neurotype matching once again does little to improve information transfer in a laboratory task (this one using visuospatial info rather than verbal info in a diffusion chain).

At least there are some good outcomes in this black mirror episode of a country we're living through. Now we just have to wait and see how Trump botches high-stakes international affairs 🙃 share.google/Yc8A8pUFZ5TPOB…
