Yep, I know, it sounds like bullsh*t but amazingly, it's true. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has just cleared the digital therapeutic EndeavorOTC (AKL-TO1), as an 'over-the-counter treatment' for adults with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) delivered through a video game experience. Good f**king grief. What could go wrong?

#1573 A Video Game To 'Treat' ADHD - David Gillespie

So the father of six (Gillespo) and the and the Bloke and the Hybrid (Tiff) with zero kids between them, had a chat about parenting, recent research on the relationship between screen time and mental health in kids, the ancient and apparently outdated concept of kids doing chores, addiction wiring and the very real experience of withdrawal when kids are separated from their screens. I’ll never know, but it’s quite possible that I would’ve made a terrible parent.

Dr. Olivia Ong is back at TYP Central and this time we endeavour to gain a deeper understanding of burnout - what it is, what it isn’t, who it affects, how it affects us, how to recognise it and what we might do about it. Enjoy.

#2248 How Burnout Works - Dr. Olivia Ong

This was another genuinely fascinating conversation with Prof. Robert Coplan from Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada. It turns out that being alone is bad for some and great for others. And that we don’t need to be alone, to be lonely. We spoke about the difference between loneliness and solitude, the fact that some people suffer when they don’t get enough time on their own, how introverts are often mistaken for extroverts, that some of us need to find the right ‘dosage’ for being around others, that some people are mitigating loneliness with AI and we discover that I might actually be a social misfit. No shock there, I guess.
