2025-01-20 - 2025-01

Inspired by incidents involving individuals like Taylor Swift's stalker, New York State is proposing the "SUPPORT Act."

Genetic Links Between Occupations and Mental Health Disorders

2025-01-20 - 2025-01

A study by researchers at the JJ Peters VA Medical Center and the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai analyzed data from over 400,000 individuals aged 30 or older. They discovered correlations between certain professions and genetic predispositions to mental health conditions. For example, individuals with higher genetic risks for ADHD were more commonly found in roles such as cleaners, chefs, and police officers, while computer technicians were more often linked to autism. Teachers and lawyers showed genetic traits associated with anorexia. The study suggests that genetic predispositions might influence career paths, although demographic and social factors have a significantly larger impact on occupational outcomes.

Lorna, who says she is "in her 20s" — and has 140,000 followers on YouTube and 36,000 on TikTok — advocates for "micro-retirement." As she explains, “Instead of waiting until you were 60 or 70 to travel the world … you do them [while] you have your youth, your energy, your health.”
