In fact, #postpartum depression not only is the number one killer of birthing parents - it is killing us in the long term too - 20% of deaths in the postpartum period are due to #Suicides

If you haven't heard and learned about CSRQ-SM software yet, your alt media or so-called resistance info source isn't what they want you to believe, they aren't on the side of the people. Period. It's that simple. And chilling. 🧵
We're a few steps away from their slogan "you'll own nothing..." to become reality‼ To eventually stop CSRQ - this Great Reset financial and social score software/system - to be deployed in our very near future, much more people would need to be aware of its existence‼ 
Much more people would need to be aware of its existence, testing, about the classes within, and majority of Sovereigns already massively moving their fiat money onto their accounts with USDR currency. Mind blowing evil & bloody nightmare‼

I was recently reminded that “Benadryl causes dementia.” As someone w/#longcovid who would not be alive today w/out Benadryl because US healthcare does not give a shit about #LongCovid, I’d like to counter with this from “psychiatrists.” Nov. 3, 2022. psychiatrist.com/news/nose-pick…
If American society, healthcare, and government continues on this path of covid denial and #LongCovid gaslighting/denial, no one in this country will live long enough to develop dementia.
I’m so relieved, btw, to see “psychiatrists” focusing on the “key issues of the day” in November 2022. We should all get on our knees in gratitude for their contributions to today’s most pressing social ills. Forget mass social denial of a BSL3 pathogen. Nose picking solved. 👍

#Punjab #Farmers were encouraged to shift away from #bajra #pulses #oilseeds #chana & enter #wheat-#paddy cycle by a assured price mechanism policy; why not assure MSP for #pulses to Punjab farmers, which can cut 16,627 crore imports, reduce paddy acreage & paddy #straw ?

An example to show, how the shift from pulses in Punjab happened.
👇
In 1960-61, #pulses acreage in #Punjab was 9.03 lakh hectares with production of 7.09 lakh ton, but; in 2018-19 Kharif, it dropped to 7500 hectares with a production of 6200 tons

The per kg cost of pulse import increased from Rs 16.88 in 2006-07 to Rs 42.80 in 2016-17 (rise of 10%/year). If India were to continue to import large quantities of pulses, the unit cost of such imports is to increase for sure. Why not encourage Punjab farmers to grow pulses ?

Life expectancy of a Malayali (native of Kerala) is 74.9 years but according to the IMA study, the mean ‘age of death’ of a Malayali doctor is 61.75 years. Indian doctor’s average lifespan is 55-59 years, almost 10 years lesser than that of the general population (IMA, Pune).

.@BrianMannADK At @headsUPmigraine, Dr @NitaGhei & I are trying to understand why medical research about the "very rare" risk of #addiction in medical #opioid use & the rising rate of causalities from rx opioid limits isn't being reported, even by thoughtful outlets like @NPR.
#Addiction expert Maia Szalavitz explained in 2016, "#Opioid addiction is a huge problem, but pain prescriptions are not the cause." The fact that steep rx limits haven't so much as slowed rising ODs proves her right.
