When are @SeneddWales going to debate about the #chronic #VaccineSideEffects that are impacting on our lives
@WelshGovernment are responsible for the rollout of the #CovidVaccines in #Wales, so where is the help & support that we need?

@WelshGovernment @PrifWeinidog @vaughangething @CMOCymru @Eluned_Morgan & more kept saying how safe & effective these #CovidVaccines were
Encouraging us to have them, especially with being ‘classed as vulnerable’
Protect yourselves , protect your loved ones

During the #Welsh #covid briefings @Eluned_Morgan talked about #mentalhealth
I remember her saying to reach out to others if you were struggling
A few months later I emailed her, asking for help with #VaccineInjuries
She didn’t care

Are there any changes in #brain #structure during the first year following #trauma #exposure? Is there a difference between individuals who develop #chronic #PTSD and those who #recover? A quick thread about our work published today in @molpsychiatry📜🧠🧵

nature.com/articles/s4138…
Reduced #hippocampus and #amygdala volumes have been repeatedly documented in #PTSD patients. But do they reflect a #pretrauma vulnerability trait or #postexposure stress-induced atrophy?
To answer this question, we examined the association between #longitudinal #volumetric #changes of the hippocampus and the amygdala, as well as their #key #subregions, and #PTSD #symptom #trajectories during the first #14months following #trauma exposure.
In the very beginning of the pandemic, I created the hashtag #multiyearpandemic
2023 is approaching and we are seeing it span out in reality.
1) #COVID19 is nowhere near endemic status.
2) Mathematical modeling 👉 it’s going to take ~10 years to reach it.

To those spouting at #PWD’s on #ODSP to “get a job”, may I remind you that #ODSP is for ppl who are #DISABLED that either can’t work or can’t work F/T, & even if we attempt to try and find work #ODSP claws back 50% of every $ made above 200$ … 1/6
it is #legislatedpoverty, we only receive 1,169 a month to live on, can you live on that ? I dare you to come up with a budget on that amount rn, guess what, you can’t, no one on #ODSP is living high on the hog I can guarantee you that … 2/6
yes there are #benefits but it’s a #bureaucratic nightmare, everything needs to be approved, forms need to be filled out, these are often #discretionary and the caseworker can deny it if it doesn’t meet a certain #eligibility … 3/6

1/🧵 I think Chris Rock wouldn't have made a joke about Jada's illness if more folks were educated about the high prevalence of autoimmune & other chronic disorders.

2/ As a woman who lives with multiple immune-related disorders, when a comedian makes a joke about chronic illness, I feel unseen...not just for me, but for all my fellow #chronicfolks. Does Chris Rock have any idea what Jada goes through to live with alopecia? Probably not.
3/ As a country, we need to create more dialogue around chronic illness, and especially autoimmune diseases. They are so prevalent yet they are usually talked about in whispers....'Oh, she has Crohn's.' Cancer used to be spoken about in hushed words, too.

I know that there are #patient advocates that take issue with @BethDarnall work but I find it critical. I know many individuals in my community that have wanted to decrease their opioids or get off all together for various reasons. Listening to their stories are frightening. 1/
What I don’t condone, is #physicians & #antiopioid proponents utilizing work done such as @BethDarnall or other psychologist that work in the area of #pain to be dismissive of those with #acute or #chronicpain. Sadly, this occurs all too often and has caused a distrust by 2/

Im #allgemeinen #Sprachgebrauch beschreibt das Wort #mild idR etwas von #untergeordneter #Bedeutung.
Zum Beispiel wird #Erkältung oft als "#milde #Viruserkrankung" bezeichnet.
#Mild bedeutet also "durchaus evtl unangenehm aber nicht weiter
von Bedeutung, keine große Sache"
