BREAKING: Sleep and neurology researchers confirm that "morning grogginess" in ADHD is actually severe Sleep Inertia—a state where the prefrontal cortex takes up to 60 minutes longer to restore blood flow and dopamine signaling after waking up than a neurotypical brain.
If waking up your ADHD child (or yourself) at 7:00 AM feels like trying to wake up a hibernating bear who wants to fight everyone in the house, here is the science of why:

Oh, so much this!! Fuck so-called progressive governments who only maintain a status quo rooted in inequity.

1. The bottom line: SARS-CoV-2 only emerged in late 2019. No-one can know the long-term effects of repeated infections, but with anosmia and cognitive dysfunction as common symptoms, the assumption I make is that there is a tsunami of early-onset neurocognitive diseases coming.

5. Risk analysis and mitigation is not rooted in fear. It is rooted in the ability to understand the variables of a changed environment and adapt to them. That is to say, risk analysis and mitigation is based in facing reality head-on. This is a rare and valuable skill.

Yeah all us mothers with cardiac damage from Covid just need a bit more ‘me time’. These ignorant, arrogant, institutionalised, manipulated, non-thinking doctors can get f*cked.
Cardiologist spots an “alarming trend” of women in their 30’s starting families with palpitations, chest pain, and fatigue while “trying to sludge through their day.”
Cause?
“Having kids and working so much” is “causing all this stress to their heart.”
He says his first reaction is: “to not give them medications,” just 20 minutes of “me time” that is “magical.”
This is exactly how Long Covid gets dismissed.

Just saw a post on FB by a nurse giving helpful tips on how to word things when you see a doctor & its really irked me
The post was fine (despite obvious AI assist), the tips were fine. Things like differential diagnoses, functional capacity, activities of daily living etc

– If only there was something we could do.
ALT A black-and-white cartoon in a loose sketch style by @waysidescribbles. Two people stand on a wooden pier looking out at calm water where a person is struggling and calling for help. A life ring hangs on a post on the pier, and a coiled rope lies nearby. One of the standing figures looks out and says: 'IF ONLY THERE WAS SOMETHING WE COULD DO.'

Remember folks, if the propaganda looks stupid to you, you weren't the target. I really, really need folks to understand this. All because YOU wouldn't fall for it doesn't mean you won't fall for something aimed at YOU. #HeadOnASwivel :)
"Sex based rights" has always sounded so wrong and it finally hit me, it sounds like states' rights. I guess parental rights is the same thing. Trying to create rights around power, not it's absence.
