I may not be the best player, but I love Disney's Lorcana TCG. I may be horrible at video games, but I love them. Love writing, music, and board games. Huge Disney nerd. Bury me with my mountain of stuffed animals. Human rights. 🏳️🌈

Well, this is minimally surprising (also known as: not surprising at all).
New research links ADHD medication to reduced risk of suicidal behaviors, accidents, and crime
New research links ADHD medication to reduced risk of suicidal behaviors, accidents, and crime
Starting ADHD medication soon after diagnosis was linked to notably lower rates of suicidal behaviors, substance misuse, transport accidents, and criminal convictions over two years, suggesting treatment may protect against serious harms beyond easing core symptoms.

So... it's not a history museum anymore?
What is it, then?

The Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History last month removed a board that referenced President Donald Trump’s two impeachments from an exhibit on the American presidency.

When this album came out - 25 years ago?! - I absolutely flipped my wig and MADE my mom bring me to Walmart to pick it up. Then I listened to it on repeat for probably a week without a break. Beginning of my OCD? I think so. #BritneySpears #Music #OCD
My Oops!…I Did It Again 25th Anniversary Vinyl came today!! It is my favorite thing in the world!! 💖💜💛🤎

"I have to put my needs aside to meet the needs of others." There are plenty more, but this one definitely doesn't always serve me, but has become part of my identity. My empathy is a skill; allowing it to trap me is not. #Psychology #mentalhealth #psychotherapy #therapy
What messages have you swallowed whole from your family/culture that no longer serve you?
Today start noticing them & asking 'Who says?" to enjoy life more & become the person you were always meant to be.

AI is problematic to start, but when adding in the private mental health symptoms of real, live individuals... things get even messier. If you feel you need support, seek a professional qualified to provide it, or in a mental health crisis, dial 988. #AI #therapy #psychotherapy #mentalhealth

#AndromedasEdge is probably the most exciting board game I've played (with the most lengthy setup). It was an absolute blast playing by myself, then with my wife. 10/10 would recommend. (But also... I have no clue what I'm doing... send help!) #BoardGames #Games #CardboardAlchemy

This book... was too damn good. As a fan of British literature since it was introduced to me in high school (and therefore a fan of Frankenstein), who also happens to be 🏳️🌈 this book was exactly what I needed to fall into another world where I felt seen.

Anyone ever tried ketamine-assisted treatment for OCD? Or even those who haven't. I'm interested in people's perspectives. #OCD #Ketamine #Psychology #Therapy
The pros and cons of ketamine for obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)
A Stanford psychiatrist is researching the effects of ketamine on the brains of patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder, hoping to determine why the drug relieves symptoms.

"Connection or misdirection? When people with mental health problems seek support online, both benefits and pitfalls abound." What do you all think about online support pages for OCD? Particularly unmoderated ones. Has any particular site helped you? Or the opposite? #OCD

This song really moved me, so I want to share it. The weight of being Christian today - when so many "Christians" are so hypocritical and full of hate - is hard to carry. Why don't people remember the basics? You know... "Love thy neighbor?" Not just people you *like*. #PeytonParrish #Faith

The collaborative nature of psychotherapy should be clearly spelled out...The therapist can meet the patient halfway, but not much further.

Even though I've done a lot of therapeutic work on myself, my #OCD still kicks my ass some days. Sometimes, I just want to wake up and not have to think about practicing #ERP every moment. The obsessions are intense. But at least my compulsions are lower than they ever have been before. #Progress

A short thread with some tips about Trump fatigue and the next few years:
1. Be prepared to pace yourself. Had too much for one day? Shut it down. Dig into work and hobbies. Find enjoyment.

I just… I’m too fucking OLD for another four years of Trump. You know?
I’m already so fucking tired.
I’m already so fucking tired.

Per FOX and Eric Daugherty, they include:
- Declare emergency at the border + issue proclamation closing the border
- Designate cartels as foreign terrorist organizations
- Remain in Mexico, Catch and Release will be reinstated

I think that’s exactly what we need to do. 💔
I try to avoid the doomscrolling but I can't even look at the BBC news or Reddit without seeing something else terrible.
Am I just going to have to avoid the internet entirely other than boardgames and video games websites?
