Modernity, Mental Illness, and the Search for Meaning


Listen Later

This episode explores how modern advancements, individualism, and the decline of traditional values have led to a rise in mental illness and existential crises. It draws on thinkers like Szasz, Frankl, Jung, and others to argue that the loss of community, meaning, and spiritual connection creates psychological struggles. The solution lies in rediscovering purpose, community, and understanding the unconscious mind to heal the fragmented modern psyche.
