We don't have to worry about the government tracking us everywhere we go. These corporations will do it for them and then sell the data for a proft.

And reddit still shouldn't release the IP address of specific users without a warrant.

Like any medication/supplement, your personal experience will vary. That's a big part of why the reviews are mixed online.

I'd suggest trying one product and switching to another if you're not feeling any changes within a couple of weeks. If the second product doesn't work, then CBD may not work for you.

I'm in the same boat with my PC. Bought a steam deck for the same reason.

Without knowing much, I feel like it runs into the same problem as Latinx. It is unintuitive to speak the words how they are written. The specific auteur.ice example seems relatively easy to actually speak, but I'm sure other words run into the same problems.

Look at truth social for how that worked.

When the majority of your population also lives in the same metro area as your seat of government, it really helps.

Nothing else has the traction yet to replace the utility of Twitter for news organizations unfortunately

To your second point, this is actually a major problem of debates from a psychology stand point. Unless people are willing to change their beliefs, debates actually strengthen their belief in their previously held ideas. It is useless to debate someone that is not willing to change their mind.

I am not a doctor but did some neuroscience graduate studies and will try to provide a basic explanation.

The biggest problem with our current understanding of mental illness is we cannot directly connect the cause of mental illnesses to the symptoms like we can in other illnesses of the body. We run into a problem due to the complexity of the brain. For example, Parkinson's disease is generally caused by degradation of the substantia nigra. This causes problems with dopamine signalling leading to paralysis. However, there are psychiatric disorders, for example the catatonic subtype of schizophrenia, which are defined by periods of paralysis that are not affected by the same medications used to treat Parkinson's disease. To use Major Depressive Disorder as an example we have multiple classes of drugs that work on different chemical levels (serotonin and norepinephrine being the most common) and systems in the brain but don't have a one size fits all treatment.

The focus of the DSM is a diagnosis guide that focuses on standardization of symptomology and diagnosis. It has guides on best treatment practices but it is not the primary purpose of the DSM.
