My system has been firing for hours since I first saw this thread show up in my feed. I feel absolutely furious that people are misrepresenting #ACEsScience as determinant & dismissing it as unethical & faulty. No one with any reputability is saying "I am my ACEs." #WhyITalkACEs
Maybe you haven't been affected by your experience of #ACEs Maybe you had enough mitigating experiences of #BCEs or #PCEs Maybe you pulled yourself up by your bootstraps. Maybe you were able to access resources in early adulthood to prevent or redirect long term effects.
Maybe the effects of your #ACEs and #ChildhoodToxicStress just haven't shown up in your physiology yet. #Cancer #HeartDisease #Diabetes #COPD #Obesity #AutoimmuneDisease #Suicide #Depression have all been shown to also occur in people with histories of #ChildAbuse #ChildNeglect
I feel extremely grateful to be included in this international webinar hosted by @ChiromoMentalHH on #WSPD2020 along with @janehmul @G_Mbugua1 et al. We need to make inroads into #SuicidePrevention I'll be talking about how understanding #ACEs can help us address the #RootCauses

Thank you to @angiyo58 of @GSNAfrica for connecting me with @G_Mbugua1 She's initiating a global collaboration to #PreventSuicide Since the number 1 cause of death for children in Canada between 10 and 14 years is #Suicide we all have to share our knowledge to protect our kids.
