The potential long-term side effects of antipsychotics (e.g. metabolic, neuromuscular, and cardiovascular) can be concerning, especially if several of these medications are initiated at a young age. There is a growing role for #Deprescribing in pediatric psychiatry. Learn more about #Deprescribing here: https://buff.ly/4evVa7V

NEW FREE ACAMH Topic Guide on Tourette Syndrome (TS) https://bit.ly/3isCRm2 "For TS to be diagnosed, multiple motor tics and at least one vocal tic must be present at some point during the course of at least 12 months.

Developmental Trauma and Childhood Trauma Developmental Trauma: Developmental trauma is where the persons relational field of safety experiences repeated ruptured without proper repair, where the environment is a cause of significant stress in the nervous system and there is a lack of resource and support in their primary relationships in order to be able to have repeatedly experiences of co-regulation and returning back to safe and calm. This kind of trauma is insidious, often hidden and normalized within the person's experience due to long term identification with the traits and bodily experience. The personality becomes oriented around surviving relational dynamics in their environment, developing adaptive personality traits and repressive ego defenses to keep the un-metabolized sensations at bay; this happens within their physiology and psychology. The body develops chronic tension patterns within the muscles, fascia and energy systems which then result in a physical and psychological posture that becomes the person's identity. These repressive structures turn into reactive patterns that become entangled together, coupled with different emotions, thoughts and the senses themselves. Developmental trauma happens within relational dynamics, which is why it is harder to spot than just significant events. It is more often about what did not happen, neglect rather than abuse, missing needs and experience manifest various coping strategies in adulthood including certain personality traits and addictions.
