By way of #introduction, I could also mention that I am also a #GenderStudies scholar and #feminist.

I'm a #PhD of #Psychology and work #psychologist at the Swedish National Employment Service. I have a keen interest in #PhilosophyOfPsychology, #PhilosophyOfMind, #CriticalPsychology, #HistoryOfPsychology and #Phenomenology. I blog (in #Swedish) at https://fenomenologen.se. Is that enough as an #introduction?

Evening #selfie by Umeälven (Umeå River).

The psychiatric diagnostic system #DSM is dismissed as contradictory, clinically unusable and "scientifically meaningless". Nothing new here...

Next stop: the original article.

I'm going home. Maybe I'll just make dinner, wash up and play #Zelda #BOTW the rest of the evening. Is that ok?

Lunch time!

Why does the Firefox #FacebookContainer react on #HackMD (https://hackmd.io)? Does HackMD have some secret collaboration with Facebook, or is it just the fact that you can authenticate with Facebook that makes Facebook Container react?

Sorting screws.

That is, the report is old, not the psychologist who wrote it. 😉

Reading an old psychologist's report, meeting patient in half an hour.

The other tests -- cognitive, memory, executive functions, attention, response control test and so on -- only help me rule out or verify neurodevelopmental disorders, but NEO actually helps me understand the client and their life-world.

The only drawback is that NEO-PI takes hours to score and interpret without a computer... I'll have to convince my boss to buy the computer based version.

I have to admit that I love the NEO Personality Inventory (NEO-PI), not because of the theories of personality it tries to operationalise (all theories of personality underestimate the importance of context), but because of all the therapeutic working hypotheses I can formulate from closely examining the 240 items. I provides me with clues that help me see things I otherwise could have missed in the client's narrative.

I use the Sublime Table Editor a lot (https://github.com/vkocubinsky/SublimeTableEditor) but sometimes I would like to edit #markdown files outside #SublimeText. None of the web services I use (#StackEdit, #HackMD) has anything that even remotely resembles Table Editor.

Are there any alternatives out there I have missed?

Prepared for today's test session.

I'm looking for a corner desk and came across this beautifully designed desk. Unfortunately, I can't read a single word in French, but as far as I and Google Translate can understand, this one is sold out? Does anyone know if I can find it anywhere else?

I don't know anything about quality or so, maybe it's similar to IKEA crap, but I liked the design.

A colleague of mine, a man with shaved head, huge beard and tattoos, gave me a big, warm, long hug today to comfort me. I let go after the masculine two second limit, but he held on, so I did too.

I must admit I was a bit surprised. But it felt good.
