Sometimes it does sound like some #scientists, ironically #psychologists in this example, are living in social echo echo echo.... chambers.

Either David or Douglas said, to paraphrase "we have so much wonderful stuff, & yet, rates of social anxiety are going up in the youth population... blah blah".

Yeah! Because all the "wonderful" stuff is friggin wrecking their futures.

I guess hesitating to waste my money on psychology services wasn't such a bad idea after all.
Canadian Psychology is practically snake oil and political propaganda.

La décision arrive sous peu.

«#JordanPeterson will find out Wednesday whether or not the College of #Psychologists of #Ontario overstepped in its efforts to sanction him for a series of controversial public comments.

The college has ordered #Peterson — who has gained international fame for his bestselling self-help books and lectures — to pay to undergo a media training program, saying some of his tweets may be "degrading" the profession and even raise questions about his abilities as a psychologist.»

Two things:

1. It’s #psychologists. Note the “h”.
2. The explanation is that they were lying.

..and there are people that have bad #experiences with #psychiatry"

A question for the #analysts and/or #psychologists of the 'verse.

People on mastodon are so nice. What is it about that this place that makes people nicer?

There's good and bad in everyone, but the #Fediverse seem to bring out the best in people. There is assholery, but it's quickly and quietly avoided.

Any idea why? It's still #socialmedia, it's still people. What's different? It can't just be management, structure or 'owner'.

Humans Aren’t Mentally Ready for an AI-Saturated #PostTruth World’. The #AI era promises a flood of #disinformation, #deepfakes, and #hallucinated “facts.” #Psychologists are only beginning to grapple with the implications. https://www.wired.com/story/generative-ai-deepfakes-disinformation-psychology/ #MentalHealth #healthcare #KM #KnowledgeManagement #AI

Users should not have to worry about their data and personal privacy when using a ‘mental health app’ which begs the question: Are mental health apps better or worse at privacy in 2023? The answers may surprise you, as some apps are actually worse than before. I have real issues with apps claiming to support mental health in the first place, and privacy concerns make those issues even more profound. #MentalHeath #DigitalCounseling #Counseling #psychology #psychologists https://foundation.mozilla.org/en/privacynotincluded/articles/are-mental-health-apps-better-or-worse-at-privacy-in-2023/

It's been a long week doing group interviews for our new intake of clinical #psychologists and I'm drained.

But I also had a 6:30am (what was I thinking?) Ocado (what was I thinking?) delivery of treats for a friends #birthday.

I'm not sure they will all make it to my friend. I'm very tempted by the goat's #cheese #popcorn... she'll never know. She can could have some of my beloved #Swedish Dill Chips as a replacement🤔

Doctors and psychiatrists -- I'm doing a bit of research for a psychiatrist I know.

Are there any e-prescribing platforms (EHRs) for the United States that have a time delay function as to when they send the scripts?

I'm told that ADHD meds (and other similar controlled substances) have to be e-prescribed ONE at a time with no refills. This is making doctors who normally see a client, say, once every three months have to remember to send in the scripts once per month. Wanting a system that lets the doctor program the computer system to electronically send the scripts spaced out once per month without further manual intervention.

Thanks for any and all leads.

In Canada’s two-tiered mental health system, access to care is especially challenging in rural areas

Is it because of #education ? ( how they were raised up ?)

Is it because of constant #fear (instability) and #stress (loss) ?

Is it because of /some/ bad doctors who prescribe drugs as solution for everyone and everything that comes up as a problem ?

What about the #psychologists that have long adviced organizations and companies to incorporate anti-stress measures into people's life styles.

Let's look at some key measures proposed by #experts, namely, Adam Grant's.

@athomeinmyhead

I've asked this a few days ago, and I'll repeat it here:

Are there any #psychologists who can explain to me why the fuck a man of colour would be a Proud Boy? Why would a man of colour join white nationalists, or a queer person join the far right , etc

A Jew, a Muslim, a woman, an immigrant etc Why do far right people with any of these identities be a Tory, a far right person, a member of the U.S.'s GOP, a Trumper, etc You know where I'm going with this question. In a word, why would some1 run with people who hate them?

#psychology

#Psychologists help people.
For example, #JordanPeterson helps #evil people sleep better at night by providing them with specious rationalizations.
