Welcome to Binchotopia.

We hope you enjoy your stay.

Hi everybody.

Welcome back to Binchopia.

I'm Julia Hava.

And today I'm here with my bestina, Jewish Eliza. Hey, Julia. Hey, Jewish Eliza. What's up? You know, just making it through. Making it through. We're at a rough time in the semester. We're almost done. A really rough time, in fact. We have one more semester left until we're done with class. I can't believe that. Which is amazing. For those who don't know,

Jewish Eliza is my bestina in my PhD program. We did an episode on the Patreon a couple months ago

that I highly recommend listening to if you're interested in psychology pursuing a career in

psychology or you're a therapist. I think we, we spitted. I'm like, we spat. We spat a lot of facts.

We spit it a lot of facts. And yeah, it was awesome and people loved you. So now you're here on the Maine. Feeling very blessed to be back. Feeling very blessed. We have you here to talk about some New Year's resolution stuff, talk about some lesbian stuff. People don't always know that Jewish Eliza is also Jewish lesbian

Eliza. Please add that. Like that needs to be added. It needs to be added. Jewish lesbian Eliza. I want all three. You want all three. They're all important. And Eliza with an A as well. That's the other. Right. That's the other thing is that she's Eliza with an A. You'll probably see that if you're listening to this episode because it'll say that she's in it. But yeah, we're here to talk about the idea of New Year's resolutions. But before we talk about that, we have a bunch of

other things we want to talk about. The first thing that I want to talk about is this article that

just came out that said basically, I think 50% of the information on social media about ADHD is

factually wrong. 50% of the claims. I mean, are you surprised? I feel like I'm not surprised by that. No, I'm surprised it's not more. I would think it would be like 80% of it is wrong. Like 100% of the information is wrong. How much do you think generally like mental health videos on the internet? What percentage of them do you think are wrong? I think overwhelmingly they're incorrect. Like overwhelmingly so. I mean, there are a lot of, as we've talked about in our last episode, I think like therapists and mental health professionals who are sharing information that hopefully is a little more correct. But then there's just people who like don't know what they're talking about. Right. But they say it as if they do. And people are like, oh, okay. That's the thing is you can actually just say anything and if it seems like you know what you're talking about. Right. But they say it as if they do and people are like, oh, okay. That's the thing is you can actually just say anything and if it seems like you know what you're talking about, that convinces people. Like you say it in the right tone of voice, you say it with authority and you say yeah, like symptoms of ADHD are trouble concentrating and you feel irritable. Like I'm just making that up, but it's like-

If you're watching this, you have ADHD.

But it's like who like has not felt that way at some point in their life?

Right, right.

And like we talk a lot about diagnosis and like access to resources and the internet has

like democratized our ability to even know if we might have a diagnosis to seek help

for it. but also like

there's a reason that like we go to school for 500 years. Yeah, we do go to school for 500 years

to be able to provide a diagnosis. But yeah, like a tarot reader can also provide that diagnosis,
