Superpowered Mind with Clare Dimond

014 The Role of Psychology


Listen Later

Psychology could be playing an enormous role in understanding what we are. And yet it's falling short, and that fact is contributing to the mental health crisis that we are finding ourselves in.The statistics are dire: in the last 20 years, antidepressant use in the U.S. has increased fourfold. 25% of people in Europe now suffer from depression or anxiety. Worldwide, depression is now the #1 cause of disability. 300 million people suffer from anxiety and $8 billion a year are spent on mental health medication. 

There is clearly something wrong. It shouldn't be the case that human bodyminds need medication to live and flourish. So what's going on? In this episode, we’re going to look at what psychology is, its shortcomings and ways to overcome them.

What is Covered: 

-What psychology is and how it currently looks at identity

-Why psychology is falling short of understanding how the mind works

-The dangers of unquestioning identity

-How securing the unquestioned identity contributes to the mental health crisis

-Why the absolute focus on feelings is so unhelpful in the healing process

-The role of medication in this confusion about the mind

-The path to revolutionising mental health
