Psychiatrists are becoming more aware that autoimmune conditions can affect the brain, producing states indistinguishable from schizophrenia. (Happy to have played a small role in one of these cases.) washingtonpost.com/wellness/…

Today marks the beginning of Suicide Prevention Week. With all that goes on in the world and in one's everday life, it is important to prioritize your mental health and check-in with those close to you and remind them they matter. You are not alone. #suicideprevention

Let’s come together and raise awareness and challenge the stigma that surrounds dementia. It is a great day to celebrate and understand what those living with it struggle with on a daily basis.
