At his soft knock, a deep voice from inside replied, “Come in.” “Sir, patient No. 33.” The square room was sparsely furnished. At the far end, there was a wooden table with two […] -

People who are #blind from birth never develop #schizophrenia – what this tells us about the #psychiatric condition
In 1950, two researchers noticed something that didn’t quite add up. Hector #Chevigny, a writer who had lost his sight in adulthood, and #psychologist Sydell #Braverman were studying the #psychological lives of blind people when they stumbled upon an intriguing pattern ...

[It can be very dangerous to come off #psychiatric #medications. It must be done slowly & while under physician supervision. In addition to the likelihood of symptoms returning, coming off an #SSRI can cause severe physical #withdrawal, some of which may never dissipate making it impossible for the patient to ever totally stop the medication. #SerotoninWithdrawalSyndrome can be debilitating; symptoms include severe dizziness, nausea, loss of balance, & frequent vomiting.]

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/apr/13/trump-ai-image-christ-like-figure-backlash. I should hope so! How much longer are the #Christian #right in the #US going to continue supporting #Trump if he keeps pulling #blasphemous stunts like this? I knew a #psychologist who had worked in an in-patient #psychiatric ward, & had the dubious privilege of introducing one "Jesus" to another.

Death of a patient with mental illness at Shattuck Hospital raises allegations of ‘neglect’
by Jenifer B. McKim, May 08, 2023, Updated August 07, 2023
"A 60-year-old Black man committed to #LemuelShattuck Hospital’s #psychiatric ward died a 'painful, untimely death' due in part to the state’s failure to provide adequate health care, according to a report released Monday.
"#HaywoodEarl, residing at the public hospital in Jamaica Plain, likely would have survived his bout with skin cancer if he’d received a timely diagnosis and appropriate medical treatment, the nonprofit Disability Law Center concluded in a 28-page report."
[...]
"Earl’s case is coming to light nearly two months after an investigation by the #GBH News Center for Investigative Reporting revealed a history of problems at the hospital, documented by patients, prisoners and former employees."

Whose Cognitive Decline Is It? by Mary Trump
#Trump has always been easily swayed by whomever or whatever is in front of him
Lately his decline has become even more obvious. whether its due to some kind of #neurological condition or worsening of his long #undiagnosed, #untreated #psychiatric #disorders or both
Sometimes it isn’t clear if he’s oriented to space, time & people. It's particularly evidenced during recent press conferences, interviews.

CW: Prescription drug use, Adhd, note to self
A journal entry
Trying to reduce my #Methylphenidate (#concerta/ #ritalin) intake as I have built up quite a tollerence to it, the other day I had to take 70mg of concerta and multiple doses of 10mg ritalin throughout the day, so I think like 120mg tottal?
Today I just took my concerta I could feel it were off like 3hrs later even though it supposed to last 12, but I didn't take anymore today,
And God fucking Damm I was a cranky bitch this arvo, like I was just so irritable.
I have talked to my doctor about it and he said its okay to take breaks of the medication and actually recommend to take break off it when I'm not working.
Thinking about no meth tommorow to see how I go
Also thinking about maybe talking to my doc about switching to #dexamphetamine since I'm so used to Methylphenidate now
