Now more than ever advocacy is so important. Although, we often focus on the federal government, it is the state legislatures that are really the places that determine how we practice medicine, how we practice psychiatry, and how mental health access occurs for people everyday.

It’s a great opportunity to check in with ourselves about our own mental wellness and to know that it’s OK to ask for support or help if we are struggling foxnews.com/health/world-m…

As the field of psychiatry has gained in sophistication and complexity, particularly with contributions from the neurosciences, what has been shown beyond any doubt is how early life experiences have a strong and lasting effect on adult life. ow.ly/RaUO50KYqFi #PsychTwitter

For those on Martha's Vineyard this coming holiday weekend: a chance to remember a beloved/extraordinary community leader (and one of my psychiatry mentors), Milton Mazer. I'll be joining a panel discussion. Also: some not-to-be missed video of Milton.
