As a dad of four, which has apparently unlocked the stage of my life where now I cry in movies, there was a scene near the end of Fantastic Four where it got me, and my daughter grabbed my arm because she was feeling it too, and that’s what these comic book movies need more of

Today’s FDA panel on SSRIs in pregnancy lacked balance and failed to reflect the evidence. Untreated depression and anxiety can lead to serious health risks for pregnant patients—SSRIs can be lifesaving. Patients deserve access to evidence-based, compassionate care. Learn more: buff.ly/NcCZno8

The FDA panel on SSRIs in pregnancy was such a farce, it’s almost comical, if it wasn’t the reality of the day. The “balanced” panel was only made so by the strength of my new hero for the week, Dr Kay Roussos-Ross, the only non-antipsychiatry expert on the “panel”.

Thank you for this, because this was a fucking FARCE, jam packed with antipsychiatry zealots and talking points and only one person to counter that (Dr Roussos Ross is an ALL STAR AND I LOVE HER)

🥩 What if the real problem isn’t serotonin… But sugar? Mental illness may not be a “chemical imbalance” at all It might be a metabolic one. And keto? It’s not just a diet It could be treatment It sounds like the answer… But is it? 👇🏽
