Let’s rethink healthcare I love that Denmark are taking a new approach to “putative” mental illness with the redesign of their latest psychiatric hospital and their intention to reframe mental disorders to destigmatised - it’s definitely a step in the right direction, however, I believe I t’s important to remember that just because something looks like psychiatry, doesn’t mean it is psychiatric. There are a multitude of causalities that bring inflammation of the brain resulting in putative “mental illness” and behavioural abnormalities that have us wondering where our loved ones have disappeared to. We need to change this outdated social construct and recognise what is truly creating the increase of behavioural issues in our globe and admit we’ve been treating the issues incorrectly which is why medications DO NOT work. Head traumas, tumours, abuse, stress, spillover of pathogens from animals to humans, processed foods, pollution, substance abuse, etc etc etc are just some of the root cause of inflammation of the brain resulting in abnormal behaviours. April’s story in the Washington post recently is just one representative story - after 20yrs of misdiagnosis goes home after it’s discovered an immune issue was responsible for her illness. “New research suggests that a subset of patients with psychiatric conditions such as schizophrenia may actually have autoimmune disease that attacks the brain” There are too many stories showing how wrong we have been about psychiatry so #letsrethinkhealthcare Read the full story here: https://lnkd.in/e4Se2KND
Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay 🌎 Mental health isn’t just a piece of the puzzle; it’s at the core of our well-being, a human right. Yet, over 970 million individuals worldwide struggle with mental health disorders, affecting more than 10% of the global population. In the light of this – and combined with the renewed political efforts in Denmark, we’re proud to raise awareness on this important topic by launching an updated version of our publication on the Danish approach to mental health. In addition to fresh statistics, the updated publication offers two brand new chapters about the latest Danish development in the field, including Denmark’s comprehensive 10-year plan for psychiatry and mental health and the role of public-private partnerships in fostering a healthier society through multi-sector collaboration.

Mental Health is a universal human right!
www.aimtrials.com Today on World Mental Health Day, October 10th, 2023, we reaffirm that mental health is a fundamental human right. Yet for too many, quality mental health care remains out of reach. Stigma persists. Resources are lacking. Access to treatment is scarce. At Aim Trials, we are proud to focus on advancing mental health research right here in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Our studies pave the way for innovative treatments, better understanding, and expanded services. We believe our local community members deserve access to clinical trials that can improve lives. With 1 in 5 adults experiencing mental illness each year, the need for progress has never been greater. From depression to PTSD to pediatric ADHD, our studies cover some of today’s most pressing mental health challenges. We are committed to realizing the promise of scientific breakthroughs. As we honor this day, we also celebrate our involvement in pioneering psychedelic studies, harnessing their transformative potential to improve mental health outcomes. We firmly believe that our local community deserves access to clinical trials that can truly transform and uplift lives. To all the sponsors, CROs, clinicians, and advocates likewise working towards this goal - we stand with you. Together, we can make access to mental healthcare a reality for all.

Unraveling the Impact of Childhood Trauma on Mental Health A recent study conducted by researchers at the Karolinska Institutet and University of Iceland, and highlighted on ScienceDaily, offers groundbreaking insights into how adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) affect our mental health trajectory into adulthood (https://lnkd.in/eX7EY43F). This study is distinguished by its novel approach, employing a twin study design to dissect the contributions of genetic and environmental factors within families to the development of psychiatric disorders. The findings compellingly argue for the implementation of holistic, family-based interventions in mental healthcare. By acknowledging the complex interplay between genetic predispositions and shared environmental influences, the research advocates for a more nuanced understanding of mental health that goes beyond the individual. Particularly alarming is the pronounced impact of sexual abuse and the exacerbated effects of enduring multiple forms of adversity. These revelations underscore the urgent need for targeted prevention and support mechanisms that can address the multifaceted challenges faced by survivors. This study is a clarion call for enhanced awareness and action to mitigate the long-lasting consequences of childhood adversities.

"There is no human experience that is not in some sense cultural." "There is no mental illness without a cultural dimension to it." These two statements made me want to interview Dr. Laurence Kirmayer, one of our nation's leading experts on the intersections of mental health and culture. Join us tomorrow to hear him share more about these two statements (& more!) - especially as they impact workplaces. The recording will be available if you can't make it but want to hear what he shares. https://lnkd.in/eU4qrJJR #mentalhealth #hr #peopleandculture #equitydiversityinclusion #psychologicalsafety #thoughtleadership
