  • All in the Mind awards neverending

    Almost every single episode is either mentioning nominations, finalists or the awards themselves. It becomes tedious waiting for a decent episode on something interesting outside of who nominated who for an award that it coming up then announced.

Overcoming OCD
Q: As a clinician, what kind of impact do you see OCD having on people's lives?
OCD can be profoundly disabling, preventing schooling, leaving people housebound, and consuming most of their day, but with proper treatment many can regain significant functioning.
Asylum hotels and mental health
Q: What impact does hotel accommodation have on the mental health of asylum seekers?
Hotel accommodation negatively impacts asylum seekers' mental health, causing heightened distress compared to other living conditions.
Should we be using trigger warnings?
Q: What does the research to date show?
The research shows that trigger warnings do not provide the emotional preparedness they are intended for, often having little to no effect, and can even increase anxiety in some cases.
What is beliefism, and can you spot a liar?
Q: How can we reduce beliefism in practice?
We need to design environments that promote dialogue and understanding, rather than simply desire tolerance.
