Optimizing outcomes when treating functional neurological disorder in acute care settings
The cases highlight potential challenges when caring for patients presenting with FND in acute care settings. The challenges covered include over- or underutilization of diagnostic workups and consultation, over- or underutilization of psychopharmacological medications, and over- or undertreating a medical condition when a functional symptom is present. In each case, these lapses and errors caused the patient distress, additional treatments, care…
Manic episode following psilocybin use in a man with bipolar II disorder

Psilocybin is a psychedelic drug that has recently garnered increased interest as an effective treatment modality for treatment-resistant depression, depression associated with terminal conditions, certain substance use disorders, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. However, sparse data exist as to th…
Delta-8-THC association with psychosis
This report adds to the limited body of evidence on Δ 8 -THC documenting a temporal association between Δ 8 -THC use and the development of psychotic symptoms. A strong body of research already correlates the continued use of Δ 9 -THC with psychosis, and Δ 8 -THC acts at the same CB 1 and CB 2 receptors as Δ 9 -THC. Therefore, it is hypothesized that Δ 8 -THC may have similar adverse psychiatric effects as Δ 9 -THC. These conclusions are not with…

The Psychology Rapid Intake Team initiative served to improve access, reduce patient risk related to prolonged wait times, and accelerated patient engagement with psychotherapy services. The model can serve as a unique, sustainable infrastructure for behavioral health delivery for low…
