"Relapse rates after ECT are similar to those in resistant depression treated with antidepressants (37% after six months) and are a function of the illness, reinforcing need to continue with antidepressants, ECT, or both after a succes

I don't agree with the tone of the original article but I do think we should discuss our preferences. There's nothing wrong with having an opinion on it. There's a difference between opinionated suggestions and arrogant manda

I agree that continuing to use whatever you are used to is going to be the most productive.

If anyone is used to reading text based on a specific format, changing that format would affect the ability to skim the text. I am not talking about normal reading, I mean when I have to search for an idea and reference something I had seen

The issue with that analogy is that even with em and en spaces, the "correct" way of using them is based on where you learned their function. For example, the American use of em vs en dash and the British use is different. The gui

Two spacing does not increase legibility of the information. That is the only meaningful metric I care about. If there are studies to show that two-spacing vs single spacing has a meaningful difference in how quickly a human parses or under

The liver itself might be simple but the complexity is in the enzyme pathways. The marker of "elevated liver enzymes" doesn't tell us much. Taking a step back, there is only one organ I will admit we understand better than th

Psychologists encourage patients to seek out psychiatrists if they believe medication is likely to help a patient. Psychiatrists aren't the same as pharmacists, they are an active part of your treatment plan. I would suggest you take s

This is where the problem is and what I argued above as well. People handwave the efficacy and use of medication by arguing "we don't understand". That is exactly what you are doing. A lot of my knowledge comes from when I wa

I think it's valid to want a reproducible study done, regardless of how obvious it seems. The studies have already been done.

I do. I equally scold anyone that says MDMA or LSD is the cure all of depression. It's not an analogy. There is no mechanical difference between someone using Amphetamines to treat their ADHD and someone using insulin to treat their di

I would appreciate it if you did say more. I don't understand how you came to the conclusion that psychologists hate medicine. In most cases psychologist and psychiatrist work together to provide treatment to a patient. Why would psych

The reality is that both models work together. The amount that each side contributes in a certain individual is dependent on their circumstances and their genetics. Depression is very much a chemical thing, look into the "comedown&quot

It's weird that we treat psychoactive drugs differently than other drugs. We don't have a fear of a diabetic becoming dependent on insulin or someone with high blood pressure becoming addicted to beta blockers. There are side effe

I think both are true. Therapy will help you get sorted out, you can go once or twice, there's no rule saying it has to be ongoing. Many many people feel the way you do. Covid pushed a lot of people into the darkest moments of their li

I dislike this and similar articles because there is so much poor science in them and yet the authors always write in a very patronizing way. Correlation isn't causation. There is some good journalism but this is not it. It's very

If Denuvo wants it to be effective, they need low level access from Nintendo. It's not possible for this to get approved to run on the switch without going through Nintendo. Depending on how effective this is, Nintendo would most likel

While this is legal, Nintendo is very vocally anti-emulation. Nintendo and Denuvo announced anti-emulation measures for switch games in August 2022. There's a big difference between support and marketing support. Nintendo doesn't

I have expensive headphones and I don't care to have one more thing I have to charge daily. My daily hours of use of headphones means that I'd have to buy two pairs of headphones and switch them halfway through the day to charge.

Their chosen field of study doesn't affect the teaching ability of a professor. That's not relevant information. Do you imagine the professor keeps track of every pre-med student and gives them a different teaching and grading exp

I don't see how in a class of 30 students, having only 1 A and 1 B is a indicator of a good teacher. By definition the grades should reflect how well the students learn the material. Making your class artificially hard doesn't do

From what I've experienced certain professors make it very clear they dislike teaching and expect students to teach themselves. I dropped out of a pre-med track at my university due to failing organic chemistry. I wasn't set up to
