Kodi’s #psychiatry fact of the day: antipsychotics are not only used for psychotic disorders! They’re also used for bipolar disorder, sometimes PTSD, to augment SSRIs for depression & OCD, and more.
Don’t assume a patient’s diagnosis based on an antipsychotic on the med list.

The #Neuroscience of #Belonging
Belonging isn't just a warm, fuzzy concept—it's wired into us.
Neuroscientists have found that the brain treats rejection like physical pain.
That's why exclusion hurts so much—it's your biology. When we belong, our brains light up with dopamine and oxytocin.

Word of the day is ‘quiddler’ (19th century): one who pays great attention to trivial matters as a way of avoiding the important ones.

Texas Republicans have pre-filed bills to ban websites like Plan C Pills and Hey Jane, which help people order abortion pills by mail, and reclassify abortion pills as a "Schedule IV" drug under the state's Controlled Substances Act. The state already imposes a total abortion ban:

Cannot stress enough- porn bans are not actually about porn.
It's about banning gender expression, information about reproductive health, anything that is pro lgtbq, anything that conservative Christians perceive as sexual... and porn.

Read our new qualitative research report focused on the lived experiences of trans and non-binary youth in Alberta.
It’s important to remember that these are the voices that we should be listening to and supporting.

“Today, we also recommit ourselves to creating a province where everyone is free to be their true authentic self, free from violence and prejudice.”
How can you say this when your legislation egregiously discriminates against trans people!?

They voted against our rights. If they’re here I do not want to see them. There’s plenty of their perspectives in my community—including in how hard it is to get an OB-gyn appointment where I live.
