Have you ever wondered about the connection between your digestive system and your mental well-being? Today, on the occasion of #WorldDigestiveHealthDay
let's dive into the fascinating correlation between these two important aspects of our health. #DigestiveSystem #MentalHealth
let's dive into the fascinating correlation between these two important aspects of our health. #DigestiveSystem #MentalHealth
Our digestive system, often referred to as our "second brain," plays a crucial role in our overall well-being. It not only breaks down food but also houses trillions of bacteria that form our gut microbiome & have a profound impact on our physical and mental health. #GutHealth
The gut-brain axis is a bidirectional communication system between the gut & the brain. When our digestive system is compromised, signals are sent to the brain, triggering emotional and psychological responses that can manifest as anxiety, depression, or mood swings.

🚨 Stop giving smartphones to your kids! 🚨
A friend shared Sapien Labs' report that highlights a deeply concerning correlation between early access to smartphones (& tablets) to young children and the increased likelihood of suffering from mental disorders as adults. (1/5)
A friend shared Sapien Labs' report that highlights a deeply concerning correlation between early access to smartphones (& tablets) to young children and the increased likelihood of suffering from mental disorders as adults. (1/5)
The numbers are truly shocking:
(a) ~60-70% of women who were exposed to smartphones before the age of 10 experience mental health issues as adults
(b) ~45-50% of men who got exposed to smartphones before the age of 10 also face similar challenges later in life. (2/5)

I urge parents to resist the temptation of handing over a phone to kids always - while crying, or eating food etc.
Instead, encourage real-world interactions, outdoor activities & hobbies.
As parents, we have a responsibility to protect our children's mental health. (3/5)

Are you concerned or simply wondering about the impact of the internet on mental health? Check out the latest version of “Lost in the Net? Broadband Internet and Youth Mental Health” joint with @DonatiDante @RDurante_2020 and Dijana Zejcirovic #mentalhealth #econtwitter 1/n
We present new evidence based on Italian administrative data on the universe of mental disorders diagnosed by hospital doctors between 2001-2013 to patients below 40 years of age, which we combine with granular info on access to broadband internet at the municipality level. 2/n
Our identification strategy exploits differences in the proximity of municipalities to the pre-existing voice telecommunication infrastructure, which was previously irrelevant but became salient after the advent of the internet (Campante, Durante & Sobbrio, 2018) 3/n
Many click-friendly posts for #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek, saying 'seek help', 'open up' etc.
Well, here's something to be 'aware' of
Recent research by @Rethink_ suggests 3 in 5 people with mental health problems don't seek help... due to stigma

@Rethink_ It's a drum I've banged often, but it's still pertinent
Mental health 'awareness' is an important first step, but it's not an end point. And for too many, being aware of/acknowledging mental health issues is taken to mean the problem's dealt with

@Rethink_ But this is wrong, in so many ways
Being part of an online community where everyone is open and honest about their #MentalHealth is great. Often essential. But that doesn't mean everyone enjoys a similar situation. Indeed, the majority seemingly don't.

1/8 🧠#TraumaAwareness🧠: #Trauma impacts us in complex, multifaceted ways. Advancements in neuroscience tell us it's not just an emotional experience, but a deeply physiological one. Let's talk about why we need to acknowledge this, even within religious contexts. #evangelicals
2/8 Understanding #trauma means understanding the brain. Neuroplasticity shows our experiences, including trauma, literally reshape our brains. It's not 'all in your head,' it's 'also in your brain.' This isn't a matter of faith or opinion, it's established science. #evangelicals
3/8 Dismissing the physiological reality of #trauma undermines the survivor's experience. It can lead to victim blaming, encouraging sufferers to 'pray it away', 'have more faith', 'self control'. This not only fails to address the problem but can compound the pain. #evangelicals
Ja, es gibt schon wieder eine neue Studie, die sagt, dass junge Menschen psychisch besonders belastet sind. #mentalhealth

In einem Beteiligungsworkshop für die #Jugendpolitiktage habe ich mit Jugendlichen (16-27 Jahre) zu diesem Thema gearbeitet. Und das ist mir aufgefallen (1):
Die junge Generation hat das Gefühl, dass sie Probleme lösen muss, die sie selbst nicht verschuldet hat: Klimakrise, Krieg, Inflation. Dass Erwachsene sich aus der Verantwortung ziehen, sich auf ihrer Macht (#Wahlalter16) ausruhen. Das erzeugt Hilflosigkeit - und Depression. (2)
Hilfsangebote für #mentalhealth gibt es entweder nicht flächendeckend (ländlicher Raum!) oder die Info darüber kommt nicht bei den Betroffenen an. Teilnehmer*innen schildern, dass sie seit Monaten auf der Suche nach Therapieplätzen sind. Und langsam daran verzweifeln. (3)
