当院では5千人以上の #コロナ後遺症 の診察をしてきました。コロナ後遺症は寝たきりになってしまうほど重くなることがあるので注意が必要です。当院の調査で、重い後遺症になるのは、COVID-19になってから2か月以内が91%です。コロナ後遺症は、疲れると重くなりますから、COVID-19になったら、
2か月無理をしないことがとても大切です。
「無理をしない」というのは、仕事をするなということではありません。「疲れないように注意しながら生活をしてください」ということです。
ただし、もし異常な疲労感で仕事ができないようなら、仕事は思い切って休んだ方が良いです。短期間の無理で、長期間働けなくなります。

(1/8) I’ll take “Shitty Behaviour You (Shouldn’t) Have to Put Up With” for $500

I’m often mistaken for an employee at @CAMHnews, instead of the patient I am. (What does a #mentalhealth patient LOOK like anyways?). I don’t hesitate to correct someone because I’m not ashamed...
(2/8) ME: [standing in the parking lot by my car in-between #rTMS treatments]

MAN: [cutting through #CAMH grounds with walking group of seniors behind me] “...and here we are at the insane asylum, ha ha ha, if we’re lucky we’ll see some of the crazies doing their crazy shit...”
(3/8) If I wasn’t so exhausted (and nauseated), I’d have schooled you. Instead, I’ll wait outside every day in between treatments while I’m here, and maybe one day I’ll be lucky and you’ll walk by. And I’ll invite you to have a conversation. And I’ll share my history with you...

This thread is about depression - but it isn’t ‘sad’. I've accepted that my mental illness was ongoing and cyclical. Caused by a faulty part in my brain. That’s ok! I could have had a pancreas that didn’t work or a heart that malfunctioned, too. But I got a broken brain...
Fine! Let’s deal with it. What does treatment look like for a broken brain? Last week, my brain received 72,000 ‘zaps’ through a magnetic coil to the part of my brain that’s ‘broken’. I’m weepy because I already feel a difference...
I’m weepy because I keep forgetting what it feels like to not be ‘sad’ all the time (it’s deeper than this). If we think of emotions as chemicals and electrical impulses, those zaps have encouraged the part of my brain that makes emotions happen to work again...

Today was a big day for @diesel6751 and I. It was also #BellLetsTalk Day. Please read the thread to see how it unfolded... Image
Derek and I were up at 4am to arrive, in the dark, at @CAMHnews . I was able to join one of the @CAMHResearch doctors, Dr. Daskalakis, for an interview with @JamieGutfreund from @CP24Breakfast. We discussed #rTMS (Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation)...

#BellLetsTalk Image
Dr. Daskalakis discussed some staggering statistics about #mentalhealth. He said that if 350,000 people were waiting - and not receiving - cancer treatment, there would be an uproar. There are 350,000 people waiting for mental health treatment...
