The Chicago bureau chief being off by 6% in a tweet is an example of "exceedingly, horrendously, tragically bad?" The story clearly says "because of Covid."
The tweet's claim is "...the statistic is misrepresented. The 13% number only captures people who worked from home BECAUSE OF CORONAVIRUS." That's exactly what it says in the story.
What? Do you mean SSRIs specifically? Or are you including SNRIs, α2 blockers, MAO inhibitors etc? Do you have any evidence to support this or just anecdotes?
The parent comment draws an important difference between the use of psychedelic therapy and, say, ECT. I support this research but "Big Psychiatry just wants the cash!" is a reddit-level of nuance we can do without please.
This is too broad a statement to support with evidence. This study was specifically about treatment-resistant chronic depression and the measured effects on the brain.
What's being described in the study is not self-reflection but serotonergic psychedelics' effects on the 5-HT2A receptors in the brain. For example, escitalopram (Lexapro) may help with self-reflection as well but this study was specifically studying patients with treatment-resistant depression.
