Transparency, or a bigger push towards crowd science platforms for open source drugs. Basically people who have in interest in medicines because it’s their passion work together like how the open source community works together. And then people like us find those projects. Idk health is not something we should pick and choose who gets what, that is causing a ton of unease under the surface that is bubbling up. You can only gas something so much before the amount of gas build up faster than released. But hopefully we start by making it illegal for politicians to own stock while in office.
well there is innovation, what was scarce years ago became less scarce through creative thinking, we have not arrived at the end of a thought yet, things evolve and what we call scarce today is not even a tip of the resources the future will see. the more minds we have working on something the more we realize of previous definition of scarcity was just in thought and not in product
yeah that was surprising but a lot of people in different fields tend to trust what pamphlets say over what an experienced addict has been through until they realize that the addict and them are a long more similar than they are different. regardless, I got into drugs because I had low self esteem thinking it would “open my mind” enough to jar me out of anxiety. what I did not know is that I was treating the symptoms thinking it would solve the underlying issue of getting my stuff together.
If anyone with publically published material has demonstrated that they do everything for a specific purpose, it is Jordan Peterson. His body of work is plenty to demonstrate that he would not do something recklessly or without specific focus and purpose. We desperately want to derive causation from correlation, but that particular approach has created some incredibly negative movement in popular culture and society at large.
The man doesn't need to explain himself to overly left left wing redditors looking to try to take him down a notch or prove him wrong. I only metion redditors as your comment on benzos is the single most popular item to bring up in a discusson about him. His years of work and masses of public statements and appearances get dismissed with a single, ill informed snarky one-liner. The man is a treasure.
I don't really understand what you mean by that. They're completely different families of drugs used to treat different diseases, and have different side effect profiles. Opioids are typically used to treat pain, while Benzodiazepines treat anxiety disorders.
Addictive profiles was my meaning, Benzodiazepines (apparently using the abreviated form is offensive for some) making opiates look like a walk in the park when it comes to addiction.
Additionally there is a large boxy of work for prescribing Benzodiazepines to treat pain, as well as pairing the two for chronic pain, which seems to be an absolute recipie for disaster if used for anything but the shortest periods of time.
My mistake he was hooked on benzodiazepines (lie corrected for you).
Which I have just discovered are like opiates on steroids. I am shocked that as a clinical psychologist, he was unaware that it was such powerful medication.
Benzodiazepines work on entirely different receptors than opioids. They work on GABA receptors which opioida mostly act on mu-opioid receptors. Please do not lie on the internet in order to attack people, it makes you a bad person.
It's used routinely in clinical psychiatry and psychology. And you listen to your psychiatrist, even as a psychiatrist and especially as a psychologist.
Actually yes, when I was at psychiatry clinic the psychiatrist of the day dispensed all medication - including medication for stomach problems. Keep in mind that every medical doctor (including psychiatrists, but not psychologists) is trained in the entire field of medicine; they have specializations but that doesn't mean they can't solve other problems.
It’s geek ironic, but yeah the trend is kinda thick. It’ll be interesting to see how easy it is compared to other reserve proxies. I am def not a dev op guy but there’s a few things where it feels like I am learning another coding language just to do something that seems like it would be easy to document and get done sooner but, you end up needing a certificate to learn how to use an image buck for instance.
For those wondering, the nmda receptor which is in charge of motor function seems to have anti-depressant potential. This is what ketamine and other nmda medications activate. And it seems like this novel peptide interacts with that as well in some way.
Not a scientist but have experimented with a ton of compounds trying to relieve feelings of dread brought on by being raised in the lower class of society due to a father who was disabled. And later on rejection from jobs because of lack of education and being forced to work for extremely low wages. Messes up your self respect after awhile.
Anyways,
Drugs won’t solve anything for longer than a few weeks or months, but what nmda drugs I have tried seemed to have the biggest breakthrough from serious depression. So ymmv
Umm an American company increasing chip production in China over America in this geo political env. is pretty traitorous. Like investing in Russia in the 60's.
i think
it would be interesting to translate 98% of any websites to the native speakers tongue (the person viewing the content) but leave the remaining 2% as the original language (of the website author) the reason would be to eventually have everyone understood some key words in each the other's languages, its a wild concept. eventually the internet will have 1 main mashed up universal tongue
