Learning psychotropic medications can be quite challenging for social workers taking the LCSW/LMSW exam. However, once you get this part down, you pretty much have it in the bag. These questions are usually very straightforward (providing a disorder, recognize the correct drug). It has nothing to do with your reasoning skills. While it is important…

I was excited to trek up to sunny Bradford in December to take part in Soteria Bradford's 'Beyond Medication - How do we reduce our dependance on psychotropic drugs?' conference. Rather than getting stuck in expounding the drawbacks and dangers to psychotropic medication, this conference also gave space to explore creative alternatives to drugs. This is clearly something we need more of - space to approach medication in a balanced way whilst focusing on what else is available. The day started with Robert Whitaker, a science journalist who stumbled upon the realisation that recovery outcomes have not gotten better since
Study supports earlier findings that some families are using Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) as therapies for their children with autism.
Welcome to the handbook of psychotropic herbs of North, Central and South America where you'll learn about plants from peyote to ayahuasca.
Transcendental meditation may alleviate post-traumatic stress disorder in active-duty members of the military and allow them to reduce medication.
Hyperacusis is a rare disorder of loudness perception, where sounds that are ordinarily considered innocuous become intolerable.[1] Patients may perceive this sensation as painful, frightening, unpleasant, or excessively loud.[2] Hyperacusis often co-exists with tinnitus and can cause significant distress, with patients regularly reporting impairment in their social, occupational, and recreational activities.[3] Avoiding sound sources and seeking medical attention are common behaviors.[4] The terms phonophobia (fear of sound) and misophonia (dislike of sound) can be associated with intolerance to specific sounds and may have an emotional component with the former mostly associated with migraine.
My life is proof that we can change the future of thousands of youth forced into homelessness by simply valuing their lives, making investments into their futures, and recognizing that they are worth more than a few bucks and some leftover lunch. I am worth something -- and so is every other homeless youth.
People are often confused between dementia and Alzheimer’s. As a result, people think any type of cognitive impairment is Alzheimer’s. In fact, Alzheimer’s is just one of over 50 different types of dementia.
Here are the steps to break the mind trap. (1) Experience -- Observe what really happens without judgement with self-distancing and mindfulness. (2) Explanation -- Discover the true meaning and purpose of the situation as a scientist responsible human being and discount all the negative inner voices and emotional reactions. (3) Expectation -- Decide what…

“Sexual injury (assault or otherwise) can lie at the heart of a multitude of presenting client issues, ranging from money blocks to physical health problems to a “fear of being seen” as well as more obvious concerns like intimacy challenges.” Alina Frank, author of How to Want Sex Again This is not an easy topic…
It is widely believed the brain-inspired spiking neural networks have the capability of processing temporal information owing to their dynamic attributes. However, how to understand what kind of mechanisms contributing to the learning ability and exploit the rich dynamic properties of spiking neural networks to satisfactorily solve complex temporal computing tasks in practice still remains to be explored. In this article, we identify the importance of capturing the multi-timescale components, based on which a multi-compartment spiking neural model with temporal dendritic heterogeneity, is proposed. The model enables multi-timescale dynamics by automatically learning heterogeneous timing factors on different dendritic branches. Two breakthroughs are made through extensive experiments: the working mechanism of the proposed model is revealed via an elaborated temporal spiking XOR problem to analyze the temporal feature integration at different levels; comprehensive performance benefits of the model over ordinary spiking neural networks are achieved on several temporal computing benchmarks for speech recognition, visual recognition, electroencephalogram signal recognition, and robot place recognition, which shows the best-reported accuracy and model compactness, promising robustness and generalization, and high execution efficiency on neuromorphic hardware. This work moves neuromorphic computing a significant step toward real-world applications by appropriately exploiting biological observations. Brain-inspired spiking neural networks have shown their capability for effective learning, however current models may not consider realistic heterogeneities present in the brain. The authors propose a neuron model with temporal dendritic heterogeneity for improved neuromorphic computing applications.
