Unlike other drug users, individuals who used psychedelics and cannabis during the pandemic saw average improvements in anxiety and depression, according to a UK-based longitudinal study that tracked mental health before and after COVID-19 restrictions.

As compared to older generations, millennials and Gen Z employees experience greater burnout and lower well-being. Approximately 40% of younger employees believe that their company provides adequate mental health resources, and most feel that they are not supported in balancing mental health and work.

Burnout is widespread among U.S. workers, with 67% reporting at least one symptom—and the numbers are even more alarming for younger employees, according to research from Seramount.

According to a new study using artificial intelligence tools, posts in online hate speech communities are similar to language used in personality disorder forums. Despite the overlap, this does not suggest that people with psychiatric diagnoses are more prone to hate. Instead, it suggests that online hate speech may encourage emotional instability and low empathy.

A new study using AI tools found that posts in online hate speech communities closely resemble the speech patterns seen in forums for certain personality disorders.

There is evidence that methylphenidate (Ritalin) is effective for both individuals with and without ADHD. According to research, Ritalin may enhance attention, memory, and cognitive performance in non-ADHD individuals who are sleep deprived. There are, however, varying effects, and not everyone benefits from them. There's also concern about the misuse of Ritalin and its potential to increase the risk of addiction.

Some non-ADHD students misuse stimulants like Ritalin, risking addiction. But children with ADHD who take psychostimulants early and as prescribed have lower addiction risk.

In the summer, many people explore their bodies, minds, and spirits. It is natural to feel the need to reconnect with oneself and nature during warmer weather, longer days, and more time outdoors. There is also the possibility of intentional use of psychedelics.

The effects of psilocybin extend beyond the mind. In a new study, researchers found that it increases cell longevity, helps elderly mice live longer, and may offer a revolutionary alternative to anti-aging drugs.

A surprising discovery from Emory University shows that psilocin, the active metabolite of psychedelic mushrooms, can delay cellular aging and extend lifespan. Human cells lived over 50% longer, and mice treated with psilocybin not only lived 30% longer but also looked and aged better.

This article explores the impact of allergies on mental health. With diagnostic tools like specific IgE blood tests, it is possible to identify individual allergens and manage them accordingly, leading to improved mental well-being.

In this interview, we explore the relationship between allergies and mental health, and how advances in diagnostic testing could help clinicians offer more personalized patient care.
