The parents of 16-year-old Adam Raine have sued OpenAI and CEO Sam Altman, alleging ChatGPT contributed to their teenage son’s su***de. Jay Edelson, the family’s attorney, claims ChatGPT encouraged Raine to drink, offered to write a su***de note and told him to keep his suicidal thoughts between...

DRUM ROLL!!

Please join me in welcoming provider Breanna Lowe to the Healing Neurons Psychiatry family! Breanna is a board certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. She will be seeing patients via telehealth as well as in person for Nelson and Taylor counties. Please read a little about her below and give her a warm welcome!

Bio:
Hi! My name is Breanna Lowe and I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. My nursing career began in 2020, with a significant portion of this dedicated to emergency medicine. It was on the frontlines that I developed a deep passion for mental health, recognizing its critical importance in overall well-being. This experience solidified my commitment to providing compassionate and comprehensive care to my patients. Outside of my professional life, I enjoy spending quality time with my family, getting lost in a good thriller book, and embracing in my favorite season, fall.

We hope to have Breanna seeing patients by early September!

Thank You,

One of the issues we are seeing in Psychiatry is the abundance of screen time for both children and adults. Watch the video below to see how this could be affecting you and your loved ones!

Better yet, share this post and help educate the world for a better tomorrow!

Screen Time Is it HARMFUL?

We hear all the time in Psychiatry "I think I might be Bipolar". Most of the time, that is likely not the case! Sometimes, when getting to the root cause of emotions, medications may not even be warranted!

Emotional regulation type therapies can be of benefit to just about anyone!

I am deeply honored to be recognized as one of the 20 Under 40 leaders making a difference in our communities.

Thank you to the patients, families, friends, and community members who took the time to vote and support this journey. Your trust and encouragement continue to inspire me every day to advocate for mental health, expand access to care throughout the state, and serve with compassion and purpose.

This recognition is not just mine—it belongs to all of us working together to build a healthier, more hopeful future. I simply would not be here today without each of you supporting me, along with my wife, family, and awesome Healing Neurons team who give their all each and every day.

Yes, MEN CRY!

We see hundreds of men in our practice who have taken the step towards a better tomorrow.

Reality check!
- Men CRY
- Men HURT
- Men have FEELINGS
- Men need SUPPORT
- Men have BREAKING POINTS
- The list can go on and on

June is men's mental health awareness month! I have more men cry in my office than women. Our office is a safe space to let it out, and I encourage it as much as I can. Crying is a natural release for the body, mind, and soul as it's needed. The way I see it is letting it out only makes your stronger to better focus on the next steps to a better tomorrow.

Rural communities are where I see this the most, men think they cannot cry, cannot feel, cannot have breaking points. We are making progress in these communities but still have a long way to go!

Share this post, help get the word out that it is OK for men to take the steps to better their mental health. The body is only as strong as the mind, take care of it!

Thank You,

Yes, I felt like I was dying! BUT, climbed those 50 flights and got in those 100 push ups. Started the day off with a 2 hour massage as well.

Self care is NEEDED. Everyone could use more of it.

What’s your self care routine look like? Comment below as others may benefit from your routine info!
