Temperatures are to go below freezing tonight. If you see anyone at risk, especially those living on the street, please call 311. During #CodeBlue, shelter is available system-wide for anyone brought to a shelter by outreach teams. Accommodations are also available for walk-ins.

According to dynamical systems, psychiatric disorders can be seen as energy landscapes with peaks and valleys. OCD has deep valleys where neural activity gets stuck, while schizophrenia has shallow valleys that let neural activity roam too freely, connecting unrelated ideas.

An increase in amygdala reactivity was associated with risk of relapse after antidepressant discontinuation and may represent a functional neuroimaging marker that could inform clinical decisions around antidepressant discontinuation. ja.ma/4elvQjQ

One of the many great lessons taught to me by @AllenFrancesMD is to be skeptical of experts in particular psychiatric disorders. Given their intellectual (and sometimes financial) commitments, they almost always tend to overestimate the prevalence of their favorite diagnoses.

1 in 24 people develop elevated calcium on #lithium therapy, usually due to hyperparathyroidism. Check calcium regularly, and if it is high check PTH. If that is elevated, refer to consult (may treat with cinacalcet). From new review pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39192574 #bipolar #depression
