You mean "CBT is the gold standard"?😁 Joking a bit, true, CBT has significantly more research than other modalities.

Yes, of course, the good old interpretation "CBT is an evidence-based approach, while other approaches are not".😁

While trauma explains a great deal, it is not the only factor. Human experiences are complex, and not every experience is attributable to trauma. Overusing the term diminishes the experiences of those who really experienced trauma and/or have PTSD.

Thanks for sharing! Interesting to see that CBT would be recommended for "simple, isolated" cases, and for patients where there is "defective introspection ability". Interesting choice of words by professionals, as well. Sounds judgy.

Thank you for sharing! I understand your concerns. Interestingly, I didn't even think about that; I focused only on the fact that these people live in an authoritarian regime and fight against oppression. I see these protests as a fight for survival, hence health concerns probably become secondary.

Thanks for sharing, interesting results! When you say that therapy modality got "recommended" or "selected", can you please clarify by whom? Unfortunately I cannot access full text.😅 Thank you!

You're absolutely right about the lack of references undermining its scientific claims. Nevertheless, it has valid points about rising trends in therapeutic culture.

Excellent reading about the cult of Gabor Mate and #trauma. "Western societies have increasingly medicalized suffering, replacing concepts like personal responsibility and agency with narratives of victimhood." afurtherinquiry.substack.com/p/the-cult-o... #TherapistSky #PsySciSky

Today I'm honoring myself by doing nothing in particular, best day ever.😁 Also, honoring the memory and showing love to the women in my family - my mom, aunts and my belated grandmas. #IWD2025

On this #InternationalWomensDay, we honor the strength, resilience, and courage of all women - cis and trans - everywhere. It's a reminder that our #mentalhealth matters, and our voices are powerful. Strength in unity! We rise! 💪🏻💙 #IWD2025 #TherapistSky #PsySciSky

BREAKING: MSF strongly denounces Israel’s announcement to block aid into Gaza. Humanitarian aid should never be used as a tool of war. Regardless of negotiations between warring parties, people in Gaza still need an immediate and massive scale-up of humanitarian supplies.

Text within image: Humanitarian aid should never be used as a tool of war. "Israel is once again blocking an entire population from receiving aid, using it as a bargaining chip. This is unacceptable, outrageous, and will have devastating consequences," says MSF’s Caroline Seguin.

Word of the day: Fremdschämen. That's a beautiful German word for the deep, secondhand embarrassment you feel when someone humiliates themselves, especially when they have no clue. And yes, that’s exactly how I felt watching those two clown bullies yesterday. #Cringe #PsySciSky #TherapistSky

True and this is a wonderfully optimistic perspective. However, on the other hand, they weren't as good as they could have been. Ideally, there would be zero Nazis in the Parliament. But here we are, with the 20%.

happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been! with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.

Popular meme format, grandma labeled with "bluesky's public launch was one year ago today." Younger person helping her labeled with "sure grandma let's get you to bed."

Happy Friday, everyone! Research shows that gratitude can boost happiness and lower stress levels. Before the weekend starts, take a moment to think about one thing you’re grateful for this week. Here’s to a relaxing weekend filled with whatever brings you joy!💙#MentalHealth #PsySciSki #TherapistSky

Today is #WorldCancerDay! Cancer affects both body and mind. Many patients and survivors face anxiety, depression, and emotional distress. Mental health care is often overlooked but just as important. If you or a loved one has cancer, take a moment to recognize your strength & resilience.💪💙

What a powerful image. Over 150,000 people gathered today in #Berlin to protest against the far right political partt AfD in #Germany. Protests also took place in other cities and will continue across the country. 💙 #HumanRights #WirSindBrandmauer #TherapistSky #PsySciSky

Human rights and mental health go hand in hand. A world that values dignity, equality, and freedom is one where mental well-being thrives. Advocate for both - everyone deserves respect, care, and a chance to live without fear.💙 Take care of yourself and others. #TherapistSky #PsySciSky #HumanRights

Billionaires doing Nazi salutes, and some trying to pass it off as neurodivergence. We ALL know what a Nazi salute looks like - no debate. Stay strong, stay resilient, and take care of your #mentalhealth. #PsySciSky #TherapistSky #MentalHealthSky
