A Mood Apart

When first published in 1997 this groundbreaking work on the science of mood both redefined the field and—with compassion, understanding, and scientific rigor—made it accessible to those who would most benefit from the latest findings. Now, Peter Whybrow, one of the world’s most distinguished psychiatrists, has updated his definitive account of mood disorders. In A Mood Apart he argues that disorders such as depression constitute afflictions of the self, exploring the human experience of manic depressive illness, and rediscovering the human being behind the diagnosis. Drawing on cutting-edge research and his experience as a clinician, he shows how the science and culture surrounding mood disorders have changed since the first edition. Nearly two decades since its original publication, A Mood Apart remains an essential book for anyone who has been affected by depression.

Counseling at the Crossroads: Better Serving Clients with 21st Century Technologies

Filmed at the California Southern University School of Behavioral Sciences. Please visit http://www.calsouthern.edu/psychologyTitle: “Counseling at the Crossroads: Better Serving Clients with 21st Century Technologies”Presented by Dr. Marlene Maheu (http://telehealth.org/marlenemaheu/)Description: Distance counseling is an explosive area, in terms of both growth and controversy. Influences from the Internet, email, web services, smartphones, apps and more sophisticated technological advances are continually surfacing in day-to-day practice. Yet, many responsible professionals are leery of distance counseling because they’ve seen examples of unprofessionalism online.The unprecedented juxtaposition of demand for counselors to have technological expertise to augment counseling services via email, telephone and video on one hand, and to better serve clients by treating a variety of technology-based disorders on the other hand, creates an extraordinary opportunity for counselors. As we re-tool for life in the 21st century, the skills and insights of counselors will increasingly be needed, but distance counseling training is lacking. While much scientific information is available, interested counselors don’t know how to easily access the scientific evidence base. Regulation is slow to adapt.This presentation will outline optimal models for wide-scale adoption of a variety of technologies in evidence-based counseling practice, predict developments we are likely to see in the near future and highlight needed changes to counselor identity.Bio:Trainer, author and researcher Marlene M. Maheu, PhD is the executive director of the TeleMental Health Institute (http://telehealth.org), one of five providers of training for the Distance Credentialed Counselor (DCC). Dr. Maheu’s focus has been on the legal and ethical development and use of technologies to better service behavioral health clients. She has served on numerous professional association committees, task forces and work groups, including the American Counseling Association’s Cyber Counseling Committee.Dr. Maheu has authored dozens of peer-reviewed articles, and is the author of four telehealth textbooks. She has overseen the delivery of professional telemental health training to more than 10,000 professionals in 39 countries.If you would like to receive a certificate of attendance for viewing this lecture, please visit: http://apply.calsouthern.edu/attendance-certificate/

WEBINAR: Message of Hope for Tinnitus Sufferers

Recorded on: April 19, 2017 8 p.m. – 9 p.m. (Eastern) Presenter: Glenn Schweitzer Remote CART/Captioning Provider: Alternative Communication Services, LLCSummary: The presentation will be about Glenn’s experience with tinnitus (and to a lesser extent Meniere’s disease) and how he was eventually able to find relief from the ringing in his ears. When it comes to tinnitus, few people have been let down harder than those with hearing loss as many of the common treatment options, like sound masking, are simply not possible. But Glenn’s story and his experience highlight a meditation-based approach that can work for anyone, regardless of their level of hearing. The goal of the presentation is to spread a message of hope to those suffering with tinnitus and hearing loss.

The Neuroscience of Emotions

Google Tech Talks September 16, 2008ABSTRACTThe ability to recognize and work with different emotions is fundamental to psychological flexibility and well-being. Neuroscience has contributed to the understanding of the neural bases of emotion, emotion regulation, and emotional intelligence, and has begun to elucidate the brain mechanisms involved in emotion processing. Of great interest is the degree to which these mechanisms demonstrate neuroplasticity in both anatomical and functional levels of the brain.Speaker: Dr. Phillippe Goldin

Absinthe, Thujone, & Artemisia absinthium: What You Need To Know

Absinthe is an alcoholic drink that contains substances from Artemisia absinthium (wormwood). The drink has a long history of use and is often said to differ from ethanol in terms of its effects. However, there is little evidence for those differences.The drink, like wormwood, usually contains alpha-Thujone. That drug could be psychoactive, but it’s primarily known as a convulsant. Under current regulations in the EU and US, thujone isn’t present at concentrations that would be dangerous. Research suggests old Absinthe preparations also lacked significant concentrations of the substance.Overview Page (Including References): http://thedrugclassroom.com/video/absinthe-artemisia-absinthium-thujone/Reddit discussion: https://www.reddit.com/r/TheDrugClassroom/comments/5c8bym/absinthe_thujone_artemisia_absinthium/Absinthe = Green Fairy; La Fée VerteArtemisia absinthium = Absinthium; Absinthe wormwood; Wormwood; Absinthealpha-Thujone = Thujone; (-)-alpha-thujone; Alpha-(-)-Thujone; Thujon; L-Thujone; a-Thujone ————Donate to The Drug Classroom:https://www.patreon.com/TheDrugClassroomhttps://www.paypal.me/TheDrugClassroomBitcoin: 1HsjCYpBHKcVCaW4uKBraCGkc1LK8xoj1B————Thank you to my Patreon supporters: Glen Marshall, Jonathon Dunn, Thomas Anaya, Ross Martin, Star Ape, and David Kernell.————Facebook – http://facebook.com/thedrugclassroom Twitter – http://twitter.com/drugclassroom————The Drug Classroom (TDC) is dedicated to providing the type of drug education everyone should have.

General Principles

Progress in understanding the nature of the biological membrane has been very rapid over a broad front, but still pockets of ignorance remain. Application of the techniques of molecular biology has provided the sequences of a very large number of membrane proteins, and has led to the discovery of superfamilies of membrane proteins of related structure. In turn, the identification of these superfamilies has led to new ways of thinking about membrane processes. Many of these processes can now be discussed in molecular terms, and unexpected relationships between apparently unrelated phenomena are bringing a new unity to the study of biological membranes. The quantity of information available about membrane proteins is now too large for any one person to be familiar with anything but a very small part of the primary literature. A series of volumes concentrating on molecular aspects of biological membranes therefore seems timely. The hope is that, when complete, these volumes will provide a convenient introduction to the study of a wide range of membrane functions. This first volume is devoted to general surveys of the structure and synthesis of membrane proteins and lipids, of the interactions between lipids and proteins, and of the functions of biological membranes.

Protecting Against Stress & Trauma: Research Lessons for Law Enforcement– Defining the Problem

At this Research for the Real World seminar, NIJ brought together law enforcement practitioners and leading researchers in the field of stress to discuss the current research evidence and practical benefits of targeted stress-management interventions and how they can promote officer mental wellness. In addition, this gathering provided an exploration into what additional research is needed to best support officer health and wellness, potentially highlighting priority areas for future research.(Opinions or points of view expressed represent the speaker and do not necessarily represent the official position or policies of the U.S. Department of Justice.
