As a suicide loss survivor, I feel conflicted talking about my brother’s suicide. So why do I keep talking about it? And who's hurt when we can't talk about our mental health? Check out my 2nd post on @PsychToday - featured as an Essential Read! psychologytoday.com/us/blog/…

Graduate school is an escape room. Each milestone unlocks a new series of seemingly endless tasks to solve. The good news is…my internship cohort escaped grad school!!! Plus we escaped an actual escape room :) Really great way to end this journey to become psychologists.

I successfully defended my dissertation last week: "The Prevalence and Perceptions of Self-relevant research ("Me-search") in Psychological Science" I'm now Dr. Andrew Devendorf (pending paperwork), which is crazy. It's been an exhausting road, but it happened 😄

Huge congrats to all the psychology PhD students who applied for internship! And KUDOS to anyone who also break the APPIC portal. Last year, the site kept crashing when @Juliabmcd & I submitted our 419 rankings. Took over an hour. Still have nightmares 🤕

Cool study alert 🚨
Check out our new study! "Framing depression as a functional signal, not a disease: Rationale and initial randomized controlled trial" We found a strengths-based framing of depression is better than a disease framing on hope & stigma. 🧵1/5 authors.elsevier.com/c/1hD9z…

When abusers come armed, it can be deadly. On National Gun Violence Awareness Day, 6/2, we will #WearOrange for the countless women in this country whose lives have been stolen at the hands of an armed abuser. Why will you wear orange?

While horrifying acts of mass gun violence grab national attention, gun violence takes 120 lives and wounds hundreds more in individual acts of gun violence every single day in this country. We #WearOrange for victims and survivors of gun violence whose stories often go untold.

Today is National Gun Violence Awareness Day. A time to call attention to our nation’s gun violence crisis that steals more than 43,000 lives and wounds 76,000 more every year, because an America free from gun violence is worth fighting for.⁠ #WearOrange with @everytown

Facts don't change minds, stories do. I shared my story for why I'm passionate about studying depression & increasing mental health literacy. It was hard, but glad I did it. Meant a ton hearing others be vulnerable, too BIG thanks 2 hosts: David Doan @vickyusf @USFalumniAssn
