It's #Aprilfools Just a friendly reminder to not do that shit to people with #anxiety or #ptsd . That's a sure way to loose a good friend #mentalhealth

It's disturbing to me how many people I meet who are on #antipsychotic drugs when they have absolutely no #disorder or #health condition that couldn't be treated in a different way.

Almost everyone I met who was #homeless or poor, who had state #insurance which didn't give access to great #mentalhealth care.

Often for things like #depression #anxiety or #ptsd. Even just sleep in many cases.

They should ONLY be used as a last option.

They cause #braindamage over extended use, at any dose.

Wow, I didn't know there was a word for constantly having your flight-or-fight repose turned on like I do. It's called hyperarousal. I'm starting to wonder if everything is connected... fear, anger, blood pressure, muscle tension. What if all of it is caused by something super simple like a tumor on my amygdala or something like that.

I think the core of anxiety relief is developing trust in yourself that you can handle situations, even bad situations. Trusting you will be able to get through it.

When you're frustrated by everything so you decide to rearrange your desk and you can't even figure that out.

In just a constant state of "hold mode" today.

Greater #MentalHealth understanding is good, but it can only go so far without mental health *understanding*

Hence you should read 'Psycho-Logical', all about the science of mental health, by Dean Burnett

A counselor told me more than 25 years ago that #anxiety and #depression are two different doors to the same house, and I am still ruminating on it today.
