Contributor: Jorge Chalit-Hernandez, OMS3 Educational Pearls: Psychedelics are being studied for their therapeutic effects in mental illnesses, including major depressive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and many others Classic psychedelics include compounds like psilocybin, LSD, and ayahuasca MDMA and ketamine are often included in psychedelic research, but have a different mechanism of action than the others Their mechanism of action involves agonism of the 5HT2A receptor, among others Given their resurgence, there is an increase in recreational use of these substances A recent study assessed the risks of recreational users developing subsequent psychotic disorders Individuals who visited the ED for hallucinogen use had a greater risk of being diagnosed with a schizophrenia spectrum disorder in the following 3 years Hazard ratio (HR) of 21.32 After adjustment for comorbid substance use and other mental illness, the hazard ratio was 3.53 - still a significant increase compared with the general population They also found an elevated risk for psychedelics when compared to alcohol (HR 4.66) and cannabis (HR 1.47) The study did not assess whether patients received antipsychotics or other treatments in the ED References Lieberman JA.

Welcome back to Authentically ADHD, where we explore the realities of living with ADHD—the science, struggles, and strengths. Host Carmen Irace delves into the debate of Consistency vs. Persistence, examining why one is more suited to ADHD brains than the other. This episode challenges conventional productivity wisdom and offers practical insights for sustainable success.The Expectation of Consistency: Consistency is often touted as key to success, yet for ADHD individuals, it can feel unattainable. Scientific insights reveal how ADHD brains navigate motivation and effort differently, highlighting the disconnect between traditional expectations and neurological reality.Redefining Success Through Persistence: Shifting focus to persistence, Irace explains why this approach aligns better with ADHD traits. Persistence allows for flexibility, embracing the natural ebb and flow of motivation without the guilt of perceived failures. Scientific studies underscore the effectiveness of this mindset in achieving long-term goals.Real-Life Examples of Persistence Over Consistency: Irace provides practical examples—from exercise routines to work productivity and relationships—illustrating how embracing persistence leads to sustained progress. Each scenario emphasizes adapting habits to individual rhythms rather than adhering to rigid schedules.How to Build Persistence (Without Pressure): The episode concludes with six science-backed strategies to cultivate persistence in daily life. These include leveraging micro-wins, using external structures like alarms and accountability partners, and fostering self-compassion to navigate setbacks effectively.Closing Thoughts: Consistency may be overrated, but persistence is ADHD-friendly and sustainable. Irace encourages listeners to embrace this mindset, emphasizing that success lies in resilience rather than unattainable perfection.This episode resonates with anyone who has struggled with maintaining routines or habits, offering a refreshing perspective that celebrates the unique strengths of ADHD. Join Carmen Irace next time as she continues to explore topics essential to thriving with ADHD.Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/carmen_iraceJoin Focused: https://ihaveadhdllc.ontralink.com/t?orid=29951&opid=1Show Notes:INTRODUCTIONHOST (Carmen Irace): Hey everyone! Welcome back to Authentically ADHD, the podcast where we dive deep into the realities of living with ADHD—the science, the struggles, and the strengths. I'm your host, Carmen Irace, and today, we're tackling a topic that I know so many of us wrestle with: Consistency vs. Persistence—and why one of these works way better for ADHD brains than the other.I want you to take a second and think about these two words. Consistency. Persistence. Which one makes you feel empowered? And which one makes you feel exhausted just thinking about it?For most of us with ADHD, "consistency" feels like this impossible standard that we just can't live up to. We're told that success comes from doing the same thing, the same way, over and over—but our brains just don't work that way. And that's okay.Today, we're breaking it all down. We'll explore:* The perception of these words and why consistency feels unattainable for ADHDers* The science behind why our brains struggle with consistency but thrive with persistence* Why persistence is actually the ADHD-friendly approach to long-term success* And some practical strategies to help you build persistence without pressureSo, if you've ever felt frustrated that you "can't stay consistent" with habits, work, or goals—this episode is for you. Let's jump in.THE EXPECTATION OF CONSISTENCYLet's start with consistency.This word is thrown around all the time in productivity culture:* “The key to success is consistency.”* “If you're not consistent, you're not disciplined.”* “Success comes from showing up every single day.”And if you have ADHD, hearing that feels like being asked to run a marathon with no training, no shoes, and no idea where the finish line is. Because consistency is built on predictability—and ADHD is the opposite of predictable.

In recent years, cannabis has been celebrated for its therapeutic potential, including pain relief, anxiety management, and even its role in reducing seizures. But behind the rising popularity lies a growing concern: its impact on young minds at risk of psychosis. A groundbreaking study conducted at McGill University, recently published in JAMA Psychiatry, sheds light on how cannabis exacerbates brain changes in young adults already vulnerable to psychosis. For some, this is not just a scientific finding—it's a lived nightmare.

In this interview for MIA Radio, Brooke Siem speaks with David Taylor and Mark Horowitz about their publication of the Maudsley Deprescribing Guidelines, which is of particular note since the Maudsley Prescribing Guidelines is a leading text in medicine worldwide. David Taylor is the Director of Pharmacy and Pathology at Maudsley Hospital and a Professor of Psychopharmacology at King's College in London. He is also the editor-in-chief of the journal Therapeutic Advances in Psychopharmacology. Beyond academia, he contributes significantly to public health policy as a member of the United Kingdom's Department of Transport expert panel that introduced drug-driving regulations. He is also a current member of the UK government's Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs and is the only pharmacist to have been made an honorary fellow of the Royal College of Psychiatrists. David is the lead author of the Maudsley Prescribing Guidelines, a role he has held since their inception in 1993. The Maudsley Prescribing Guidelines have achieved significant success, with over 300,000 copies sold across 14 editions and translations into 12 languages. David has also authored 450 clinical papers published in prominent journals such as The Lancet, BMJ, British Journal of Psychiatry, and Journal of Clinical Psychiatry. His work has been cited over 25,000 times. Mark Horowitz is a clinical research fellow in psychiatry at the National Health Service (NHS) in London. He is a Visiting Lecturer in Psychopharmacology at King's College London and an Honorary Clinical Research Fellow at University College London, in addition to being a trainee psychiatrist. Mark holds a PhD from the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology, and Neuroscience at King's College London, specializing in the neurobiology of depression and antidepressant action. He is the lead author of the Maudsley Deprescribing Guidelines and an associate editor of Therapeutic Advances in Psychopharmacology. Mark co-authored the recent Royal College of Psychiatry's guidance on stopping antidepressants, and his work has informed the recent NICE guidelines on the safe tapering of psychiatric medications, including antidepressants, benzodiazepines, and z-drugs. He has collaborated with the NHS to develop national guidance for safe deprescribing for clinicians and has been commissioned by Health Education England to prepare a teaching module on how to safely stop antidepressants. Mark has published several papers on safe approaches to tapering psychiatric medications, with contributions in The Lancet Psychiatry, JAMA Psychiatry, and Schizophrenia Bulletin. His interest lies in rational psychopharmacology and the deprescribing of psychiatric medications, which is deeply informed by his personal experiences of the challenges associated with coming off psychiatric medications. *** Thank you for being with us to listen to the podcast and read our articles this year.

Se coucher tard a des effets significatifs sur le cerveau, comme le démontrent plusieurs études scientifiques. Une étude publiée dans Nature en 2017 a montré que les individus qui dorment moins de six heures par nuit ont une performance cognitive réduite, notamment en termes de mémoire, d'attention et de prise de décision. Les chercheurs ont observé une diminution de la matière grise dans les régions du cerveau associées à ces fonctions chez les personnes chroniquement privées de sommeil.En 2019, une étude dans JAMA Psychiatry a révélé que les adolescents qui se couchaient après minuit avaient un risque accru de développer des symptômes dépressifs. L'étude, portant sur 4 175 adolescents, a trouvé que chaque heure de coucher tardive augmentait de 38% le risque de symptômes dépressifs et de 23% celui de pensées suicidaires.De plus, une étude de l'université de Stanford a souligné que se coucher tard perturbe le rythme circadien, provoquant un désalignement entre l'horloge interne et les cycles naturels de lumière et d'obscurité. Cela peut entraîner une dysrégulation de la sécrétion de mélatonine, une hormone cruciale pour le sommeil. Un mauvais alignement du rythme circadien a été associé à des troubles de l'humeur, notamment la dépression et l'anxiété.Des données de la UK Biobank, portant sur 91 000 participants, ont montré que les individus qui se couchaient après 23 heures avaient un risque 25% plus élevé de développer des troubles cognitifs et de l'humeur par rapport à ceux qui se couchaient plus tôt. Ces effets sont exacerbés par la lumière bleue des écrans, qui inhibe la production de mélatonine et perturbe le sommeil.Une autre recherche publiée dans Sleep en 2020 a révélé que les personnes qui se couchent tard sont plus susceptibles de souffrir de troubles de la régulation émotionnelle, ce qui peut entraîner une augmentation des comportements impulsifs et des difficultés à gérer le stress.Mais alors quelle est l'heure maximale à laquelle faut-il aller au lit pour préserver sa santé mentale ?Les chercheurs ont analysé les données de 73 888 adultes, âgés en moyenne de 63,5 ans, issus de la UK Biobank. Les participants ont fourni des informations sur leurs habitudes de sommeil et ont porté un moniteur d'activité pendant une semaine. Les résultats montrent que plus de 19 000 participants étaient des "couche-tôt", plus de 6 800 des "couche-tard", et près de 48 000 se situaient entre les deux.Les données de sommeil ont été comparées aux dossiers médicaux des participants, révélant que se coucher tard est associé à des taux plus élevés de troubles mentaux et comportementaux. Ceux qui se couchaient tard, qu'ils soient du matin ou du soir, avaient des taux plus élevés de dépression et d'anxiété.Les conclusions de l'étude indiquent qu'il convient de se coucher avant une heure du matin pour préserver la santé mentale, soulignant que les comportements nuisibles, comme les pensées suicidaires, la consommation d'alcool et de drogues, et la suralimentation, sont plus fréquents la nuit.

Scientific studies support the benefits of mindful movement. For instance, a study published in the Journal of Clinical Psychology found that regular exercise can be as effective as medication for reducing symptoms of depression and anxiety. Another study published in the journal Frontiers in Psychology found that mindfulness-based movement practices like yoga and Tai Chi can improve mood, reduce stress, and increase overall well-being.In fact, a meta-analysis published in JAMA Psychiatry found that exercise has a large and significant effect on reducing symptoms of depression, regardless of the intensity or duration of the activity. The researchers analyzed 49 studies involving nearly 267,000 participants and found that exercise was associated with a 17% reduction in the risk of developing depression.But how can we incorporate mindful movement into our busy daily lives?Tune into this episode where Noa shares 4 easy steps you can take today to rewire your brain and make movement and new habits part of your daily wellness routine.Sign up to Noa's NEW 360 Wellness course and receive a 15% coupon code when you mention Raising the New Earth Podcast!

A new study suggests that teenagers who spend too much on computers and video games may turn psychotic. A new paper published in JAMA Psychiatry says researchers studied over 12-hundred participants who spent a lot of time online as teenagers and found they were up to seven percent more likely than their peers to have a psychotic experience, such as delusions or hallucinations, before age 23. We did a deeper dive into the specifics of this and highlighting some key points to the study that make it less scary, with Dr. Fred Browne of Griffin Health. Image Credit: Eric Urbanowicz

Save up to 50% on Harmoni Pendant here: https://thewellnessengineer.com/harmoni Did you know the nocebo effect is the phenomenon where a person experiences adverse effects or worsening symptoms after receiving an inactive substance or treatment simply because they expect it to be harmful? It is essentially the opposite of the placebo effect, where a person experiences improvements in their condition due to believing in the effectiveness of a treatment, even if it is inert. In the case of the nocebo effect, negative expectations can lead to real physiological or psychological effects, often complicating medical treatments and clinical trials.

A nationwide shortage of ADHD medication has been limiting the supply of Adderall for almost a year and a half.While the shortage's primary culprit was believed to be supply chain issues, a new study is revealing another cause: an increase in diagnoses among adult women; in fact, the number of women being diagnosed with ADHD has nearly doubled in the last few years.That's according to a new study from JAMA Psychiatry, which revealed prescriptions for ADHD medication have jumped by more than 14% since the start of the pandemic.Read the full story here: https://www.atlantanewsfirst.com/2024/02/19/adhd-diagnoses-increase-adderall-shortage-continues/

In today's episode, we tackle the alarming trend of "swatting," not the buzzing flies kind but the incident where a Black judge, Tanya Chutkan, overseeing a Trump case, experienced an attempted swatting attack at her front door. Unraveling this issue sheds light on the seriousness of such pranks. Next, we dive into comedian Jo Koy's hosting of the Golden Globes. Critics are claiming he didn't do well. Drawing on personal experience as an awards show host, Seales shares her insights and advice in the Am I Trippin segment. In the realm of podcasting, we examine rapper Cam'ron's remarks on racial and ethnic identity, particularly identifying as "Black" versus "African American." A call for unity and acknowledgment of our connectedness forms the basis of this insightful conversation. Switching gears, we explore a concerning study indicating that online racism has detrimental effects on Black youth, potentially leading to symptoms related to post-traumatic stress disorder. This leads to a broader discussion about fostering a positive online environment. W touch on Pope Francis's call for a universal ban on surrogate motherhood, Usher's commitment to a sugar and alcohol-free Super Bowl Halftime Show, and Lisa Bonet filing for divorce from Jason Momoa. In Blackurate News, we highlight the swatting incident involving Judge Tanya Chutkan, Jo Koy's hosting critique, and present the Big Up/Let Down segment. We discuss the unusual but confident pitch from Ja Rule to Nike following their split with Tiger Woods, and a let down to NBA Young Boy for his candid stance on fatherhood. A personal anecdote from hosting the BET Awards in 2020 provides an insider's perspective, and we dive into the Am I Trippin segment featuring a listener's story. The episode wraps up with a Black Pop Quiz, the Word of the Day ("arduous"), and the ever-entertaining Politicians Say the Darndest Things! Listen, Laugh, and Learn on The Amanda Seales Show! FOLLOW ALONG AS WE COVER: (3:51) - According to a study published in the journal JAMA Psychiatry, Black children and teens who experience racial discrimination online may develop symptoms related to post-traumatic stress disorder. One professor said that Black youth witnessing the evidence of harm being done to Black people either by law enforcement or vigilantes can create a sense of “helplessness or hopelessness” about their future. (8:12) - CAM'RON, the HEY MA rapper turned podcaster recently shared a very bold opinion on how he identifies racially / ethnically. Let's listen. First of all, “Amanda shares thoughts on diaspora war* Here on the Amanda Seales show, we are about fostering PEACE (when appropriate). Let's work out a Black + African TRUCE. peace treaty of sorts, acknowledging how we are CONNECTED, not divided. (13:01) – 60 Second Headlines Pope Francis has called for a universal ban on what he called the “despicable” practice of surrogate motherhood, including the “commercialization” of pregnancy in an annual speech listing threats to global peace and human dignity. Usher has given up all sugar and alcohol in preparation for his Super Bowl Halftime Show; he says he wants to give the performance of his life. Lisa Bonet has filed for divorce from her husband, Jason Momoa officially; they've been married since 2017 and separated for 2 years. STORY 4: Lastly, Torrei Hart, Kevin Hart‘s ex-wife, announced this week that she will join Katt Williams on the road for his Dark Matter Tour. (16:57) – Why You Bringin' up Old Ish with special guest, Storyteller/Changemaker - Kimberly Renee. (20:58) - COMING UP THIS HOUR IN BLACKURATE NEWS: TANYA CHUTKAN, THE JUDGE OVERSEEING TRUMP'S FEDERAL ELECTION INTERFERENCE CASE, APPEARS TO BE A VICTIM OF SWATTING.
