This instance proved uniquely unpopular despite lots of marketing. I'll get around to removing the links to it in bot posts and emails and Mastodon graphics eventually.
It might have made sense to keep it open if Lemmy was going to offer private forums for vetted members anytime in the near future (therapists like privacy in discussions) but this objective is barely on the developer's radars.
I am definitely keeping https://mastodon.clinicians-exchange.org open and would encourage you to join that site if you are in need of a Mastodon instance and work at all broadly speaking in the field of mental health.

A 3-year-old short video, but a good one from SciShow -- a
consumer-oriented YouTube science show which is generally well-done.
Goes into:
-- ADHD and sleep disorders overlaps
-- Chicken and the egg problem -- which comes first
-- Altered Circadian Rhythm & ADHD correlation
-- Sleep Onset Insomnia: Is treating it a way to improve ADHD symptoms
(pretty much YES, although more research would be good)
Lots of research, although mostly children's studies. Should many
people with ADHD be taking melatonin?
