Auschwitz Memorial @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social · 27/01/2025
Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.
A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

Absolute highlight of 2024 Congress for me ✨ Please give it a listen if you missed it in person! We (both men and women!) need to be discussing this more to make sure there are less barriers to the best people being where they need to be in order to effect change 🗣️

How long to wait for an antidepressant response? 📚👇 3 response types (WARP) 1️⃣ Immediate (1–2 days) 2️⃣ Fast (up to 1 week) 3️⃣ Slow (1 week+) Most improvements occur by 2 weeks-early responders are 3x more likely to sustain response. Act early! Read here 👉 psychscenehub.com/psychinsight...

Last week, I talked at RCPsych about antidepressants in older ppl. - always consider psychological therapy as an adjunct/alternative(access/provision are challenges) - SSRIs 1st line - Start low, go slow but do go - risk factors for hyponatraemia - check anticholinergic drugs #medsky #psychsky

What is the risk if treatment is late? Or there are repeated and cumulative brain damage from episodes of WE? Potentially the ‘irreversible’ end of alcohol-related brain damage (ARBD) ensues…
