@reuters you probably know this but Hezbollah’s primary focus has always been defending Lebanon, particularly from Israeli aggression, as evident in the events of fall 2024. Framing it as a long-term threat to the US oversimplifies its role and regional dynamics. #fakenews

“Iranian-backed” is used as a loaded term in Western narratives to frame resistance groups as proxies of Iran, regardless of the group’s actual history or primary alliances. Hamas historically aligned with Arab states but this label simply serves geopolitical narratives.

What can we do?
Addressing the pipeline problem—through better incentives, higher pay, and reducing burnout—can help attract more providers to psychiatry. Innovative care models like virtual mental health can also bridge the gap

The stakes are high

Why the shortage?
Psychiatry isn’t a top choice for med students. In 2024, only 3,246 of 66,816 residency applications went to psychiatry. Compare that to 15,451 for internal medicine. Low pay and high burnout are driving factors.

The growing need
Over the last 20 years, shifting workplace culture, the rise of social media, and the Covid-19 pandemic have taken a toll on mental health. The demand for psychiatric care is surging while the supply of providers isn’t keeping up.

Mental health care in crisis
Since 2018, the US Department of Health and Human Services has been projecting a psychiatrist shortage. By 2036, we’ll be short 42,130 psychiatrists, leaving millions without access to care. Here’s why this matters: 🧵

Wrong! Numerous studies show no link between sugar and hyperactivity—blame the environment or excitement!
