TLDR: The act of validating symptoms and experiences, allowing accommodations when requested, and exploring identity formation regardless of diagnosis, allowed Charlie Health clients who identified as neurodivergent to benefit from treatment. Key findings: 💡 Neurodivergent clients reported significantly worse mental health symptoms at intake than neurotypical clients. 💡 Additionally, at intake, clients who identified as neurodivergent but did not report an affirming medical diagnosis reported significantly worse mental health symptoms than those who did report an affirming medical diagnosis. 💡 There are a multitude of reasons why neurodivergent individuals may be self-identifying and not medically diagnosed, including barriers such as access, cost, and fear of not being believed. 💡 At discharge from Charlie Health, no significant differences were found in symptom change scores between neurodivergent and neurotypical individuals, or neurodivergent individuals with an affirming diagnosis and those without. #CharlieHealth #MentalHealthMatters #Neurodiversity #Neurodivergent

😍 💜 👊 --> I want to #cry out of #joy when I read about this #hope for patients suffering from #mental #health #illnesses --> Stanford University (and all other institutes working on these topics) THANK YOU!! „That same year, 13.4% of adolescents — just over 1 in 8 — seriously thought about killing themselves.“ 🧠 „Yet, below this perfect storm of mental health crisis, there is a strong undercurrent of hope that begins in the lab. Research is leading the way toward treatments that are more effective, more personalized and more accessible.“ 🧠 „New imaging technologies allow researchers to see the neural circuitry that goes awry in neuropsychiatric disorders, lab-grown clumps of brain tissue — known as organoids — can simulate the impact of genetics in autism, and artificial intelligence can surmise signals that predict the onset of depression and anxiety.“ 🧠 „“Our bench scientists doing tremendous research also work alongside our clinicians to make sure that new knowledge translates to the clinical setting and has a direct impact on patient care,” she said.“ 🧠 „A clearer understanding of the biology of mental health disorders not only leads to breakthrough treatments — but just as powerfully, helps dissipate stigma.“ 🧠 „Stanford Medicine researchers know that to make the most impact with their discoveries they must reach those who need help the most — through online symptom screenings, virtual therapy, group therapy, inclusive clinical trials and community interventions.“ 🧠 „What gives Roberts hope is that a more open conversation on mental health is drawing together experts from different fields with a shared purpose. “It used to be that clinicians would stay in their clinical practice and refer to journals for new research, and researchers would stay in the lab and never see a patient — and we don’t have that now,” she said. “I see more openness and more flexibility from the current generation of researchers and clinicians.”“ 🧠 https://lnkd.in/emhsJ5zQ

🌟 Exciting News in Mental Health Research! 🌟 By now most of us have heard of the power of the placebo effect, yet in school we were told it was unethical in pretty much any use case. After 20 plus years of clinical experience and knowing big pharma's reach, I question exactly how it is unethical? If a sugar pill works better than no pill, yet just as good as one with drugs in it, how is it unethical? Wouldn't the later be worse? Recent studies have shown that placebos, even when Doctors know the patients are taking them, can significantly alleviate symptoms of certain mental health disorders. 🧠✨ "Symptoms of 9 mental health disorders substantially improved under placebo treatment, according to a new review of 90 randomized controlled trials — known as a meta-analysis — totaling 9,985 adult participants largely in their 30s and 40s" Imagine harnessing the mind's power to enhance well-being without relying solely on medication. This research is a step towards more holistic and patient-centered care. Similar to yesterday's post on over treating cancer, it appears we are doing a similar thing for mental health. Too many pills too fast. Some recent studies have also showed that therapy can be bad for people, talking about your feelings all the time can actually be harmful to some. People need friends and community and the power of those to heal is enormous. Let's continue to explore and embrace new ways to better support our patients! 🙌 #MentalHealth #InnovativeCare #PlaceboEffect #HealthcareResearch #HolisticHealth

🌟 First Week at Vishwas Hospital: A Journey of Learning and Compassion 🌟 During my first week at Vishwas Hospital, I had the privilege of observing and studying a variety of psychological and neurological disorders under the guidance of an experienced psychologist and psychiatrist. This immersive experience offered me a profound understanding of mental health complexities, the intricacies of diagnosis, and the effectiveness of different therapeutic approaches. 🔍 Observing Patients with OCD, Anxiety, and Depression My journey began with observing patients diagnosed with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), a condition characterized by intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviors. I delved into different assessments and therapies for OCD, gaining insights into how tailored interventions can significantly improve patient outcomes. This was complemented by my interactions with patients suffering from anxiety and anxiety combined with depression. Administering the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) provided a structured approach to evaluate the severity of anxiety, allowing me to conduct detailed questioning sessions to understand each patient’s unique experiences and triggers. This invaluable first-week experience at Vishwas Hospital, guided by such dedicated professionals, has deepened my compassion and commitment to mental health care. I’m grateful for the opportunity to learn from these experts and the courageous patients they support. #MentalHealth #OCD #Anxiety #Depression #Psychology #Neurology #Healthcare #ProfessionalDevelopment #VishwasHospital #CompassionInHealthcare #LearningJourney
