ADHD medication linked to lower risk of suicidal behaviours, study suggests
Research also suggests the medication lowers risks of substance misuse, transport accidents and criminality

The increase in autism diagnoses, as reported by the CDC, is largely attributed to enhanced awareness, improved screening practices, and broader diagnostic criteria, rather than a true increase in the prevalence of autism itself.

I don't care what side of the Israel-Palestine conflict your sympathies lie on, snatching up people with a valid student visa for the crime of writing an OpEd is naked fascism and if you don't oppose this you are a threat to this country's most basic values
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

It is March 2, 2025. My plan was to leave the world on March 2, 2024.

What a difference in a year. I still have bad days. But reasons to stay are easier to find each day.

Thankful for family, for friends, for library kids who ARE going to save the world. Once a library kid, always a library kid 💚

Lasst euch bitte von niemandem in diesem Wahlkampf erzählen, Deutschland würde fauler. Es stimmt nicht. Die Menschen geben mehr Zeit in Erwerbsarbeit als jemals zuvor. Auch daher kommt das gestresste Grundgefühl.
Wir brauchen Zeitpolitik für alles - nicht nur für Erwerb.
