"Farmers in the United States are 3.5 times more likely to die by suicide than the general population...Utah’s suicide rate has consistently been among the nation’s highest, and farmers and ranchers struggle with the volatility that comes with working in the dry mountain region. They die by suicide at the third-highest rate by vocation in the state, according to state data, behind miners and construction workers."

Taraji P. Henson wants to boost mental health services at HBCUs. She came to Baltimore.
Coppin State University wants to help “revolutionize mental health support on HBCU campuses.” And it’s getting a celebrity boost.
A few nuggets plucked from the PsiAN listserv:
The HHS recently stated that they are retreating from their plan to create an autism registry. However,
"'NIH is investing $50 million to launch a comprehensive research effort aimed at understanding the causes of [autism] and improving treatments by leveraging large-scale data resources and fostering cross-sector
collaboration,' HHS told BHB."
There are already required autism registries in seven states!

This is #caregiving: "Don't forget, while you're busy doubting yourself, someone else is admiring your strength."
Mental health from a brain's perspective with Dr Dean Burnett
It's Dean's appearance on the popular 'Proper Mental' podcast, which covers all manner of things, from stress as the biological root of mental distress, the nuances of antidepressants, to why handling corpses is better than doing comedy.
Do listen!
There is something indescribably traumatizing about watching someone's character, cognition, memory, personality, spark of life itself slowly extinguished over the span of years because we decided collectively to submit to Billionaire Propaganda on #covid19, #masks, & #vaccines.
I am watching what must be similar to seeing a loved one with Alzheimers deteriorate over time, only its 80% of my patients including those half my age.*
*The 20% are saddled with OCD, Social Anxiety, Paranoia, or Cassandra Syndrome
#Thunderbolts definitely worth seeing. Most fun marvel movie in a while, and it has a good message

There aught to be an online resource for people who want to kill themselves.
Like an online checklist or something. Shopping list or financial info to consider including in your suicide note.
Would be nice to check off a few things while the roast is in the oven. Ya know?
“The nation of South Vietnam still exists in the people who came here after the war,” Sandy said. “It is a nation that ceased existing in 1975 on a map. But there’s this diaspora of people who became Vietnamese American and brought with them their conception of that citizenship and nationality.”
Obesity is a complex condition with many contributing factors. The most effective treatments follow a multimodal approach, where healthcare professionals — psychologists, nutritionists, and physicians — work together to support people on their weight loss journey. @ScienceAlert has more:

My unhealthy coping strategies have become my whole personality at this point.
I should start a series called #tourettes Weird Moment of the Day:
Today's case-
A new guy who's nice at the Group Home I stay at, but also annoying as he asks obvious questions all day asked me "You drink instant coffee black?!".
"Yes," I was short as I was tired and just awoke.
"What are you a serial killer?" He was making a joke. I was gonna politely ask to be left alone.
I ticked as I was annoyed and said "Not yet, I'll start with you!" Now he's scared of me.
Firstly, I apologies if this is rude and if this is tarnishing the tags I'm listing.
This started as a narrower question, but broadened to this:
I'm making a "Mental Health Awareness Month" display at my library. That got me wondering, what constitutes "Mental Health?"
What started this question was that shelved with these books according to the Dewey Decimal System were books on autism. Is autism mental health? Is it just a way that some people are? Should it, (and ADHD for that matter,) be lumped in with depression (massive and bipolar), addiction, self harm, schizophrenia, etc.?
I'm trying to only pull books that are positive/informative.
If you're autistic, would you like to see books about it displayed with other mental health books?
