Practicing gratitude isn't the same as toxic positivity. It's about bringing balance and perspective to your life, which helps to improve mood and regulate distressing feelings #gratitude #psychology #PhdSky #MedSky #EduSky
Gratitude isn't about waiting for life to be perfect. It's about learning to see the good even—or perhaps especially—in hard times.

My heart goes out to the Palestinian people. What has happened to world humanity? When did society and elected leaders become so overtly and unapologetically selfish? The narcissism is just off the charts #freepalestine #dumptrump
Sadly, those who couldn't stomach a vote for Harris because she wasn't a strong enough supporter of Palestine will now have to face the "we told you so" reality of a Trump presidency.

The fact that Britain nor King Charles have said anything in support of #Canada is a disgrace imv.
It's a fellow commonwealth country, i mean how weak does Britain look even when its Head of State (King Charles) cannot make a statement in support of ordinary canadian citizens.

Now more than ever, #Canada needs the UK to stand with them against the ridiculous tariffs being imposed by #Trump nation. As a commonwealth country, this is the least Canadians should expect in return for maintaining the King as head of state. With privilege comes great responsibility! #tariffs

love it when the #instagram #trolls come for me everytime I comment that a video or post is misinformation and attempt to correct the information. Apparently personal experience and self diagnosis is far more accurate than scientific research and professional expertise #PhdSky #clinicalpsychologist

How about we just 'clean out Trump' from the USA instead? These are people in their ancestral homeland, not trash to be 'cleaned out'. What dehumanising language is this? All people, including Palestinians, have the right to basic human rights just like any of us! #gaza #humanrights #palestine
www.cnn.com/2025/01/25/p... Trump proposes to “clean out Gaza “. His lust for control will be his necessary pleasure at the banishment of people who are already defeated by the cunning forces of the Western world. The Palestinian’s torment is far from over.

The path to dictatorship! MPs are elected and accountable to its citizens. We don't need them to brainwash us with their unsupported ideas. The burden is on them to present logical facts and reasoning to the public if they wish to remain in office

#Badenoch says we need a 'dominant culture' in the UK. There already is one that is clear to those of us from ethnic minority backgrounds. Religious holidays, bank holidays, the individualistic society, the values taught in schools and the way the whole society functions in the UK.

Social media platforms use intermittent variable reinforcement, the same principle slot machines have always used to get young people hooked on chasing external validation. That's why the algorithm keeps changing. Protect your children and don't let them put their self worth in the hands of others.

Healthy boundaries and allowing yourself to have a voice is so important. It's a frequent topic in therapy sessions with my clients for good reason #therapy #PhdSky #psychology #boundaries #assertiveness
Being assertive and setting boundaries isn’t mean or wrong. In fact, it’s one of the best ways to protect your mental health. Here’s how to get started.

What is the 'let them' theory that seems to have gone viral on tiktok? Please someone enlighten me. A theory with only one supposition, no theory of change, mechanism of change, or anything that typically defines a theory. Save us from tiktok. #tiktok #mentalhealth #misinformation #PhdSky #EduSky

This makes a lot of sense given sleep disturbance being a key symptom of #depression for many I see in my practice
#Sleep deprivation weakens the brain's ability to suppress unwanted thoughts and memories:

How? REM sleep strengthened inhibitory control of the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex in new imaging study.

I keep saying this like a broken record. #Tiktok is bad for mental health and it's full of #misinformation that can be harmful. In clinical practice we are seeing more young people who have self diagnosed with #ADHD, #autism, and pop psychology terms that have no diagnostic value
Mental health misinformation is rampant on social media.
In our new study, 33% of popular mental health videos on TikTok that offered advice and information were misleading.
These videos were watched over 1 billion times.
