Do you tiptoe around your child? Our children are subjected to messages and negative influences that put them at risk of proceeding down a path towards misery. Parenting during this period can be overwhelming if you do not have the core values to guide you. It’s important to define your personal core values and live them everyday as you raise your children.

Over the last 150 years, the western diet has shifted away from locally sourced whole foods towards affordable, mass produced processed foods. Our population is now struggling with obesity, chronic inflammation, disease and our overall mental health is suffering. You are what you eat. Separating your physical health from your mental health is a mistake. 

On today’s podcast we discuss the impact of our industrial diet on mood.

In September 2020, the FDA announced a benzodiazepine boxed warning. Drugs commonly known as: Valium®, Xanax®, Halcion®, Ativan®, and Klonopin® now include the risks of: abuse, addiction, physical dependence and withdrawal reaction. 

The warning is only the first step, because many problems have not been addressed. Especially the harmed patients that have been prescribed off-label and without proper informed consent.

If you or someone you care about is currently taking benzodiazepines please visit the Benzodiazepine Information Coalition. Their mission is to educate about the potential adverse effects of benzodiazepines as prescribed

On today’s podcast we discuss benzodiazepines.

Traditionally, Gender Dysphoria afflicted roughly 0.01% of the population and almost exclusively boys. In the United States, over the past decade the rates have increased significantly with some studies reporting nearly 2% of all high school students identify as transgender. Why this sudden rise? And why is it occurring in friend clusters?

On today’s podcast we discuss the rise in gender dysphoria.

Grief is a normal human response to loss. However, Prolonged Grief Disorder was recently added to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). This attempts to establish an “acceptable” duration to mourn the loss of a loved one. The consequences of this could be profound. We need to openly share and normalize our experiences with grief.  

On today’s podcast we discuss prolonged grief disorder. 

If you are in a crisis or think you have an emergency, call your doctor or 911. If you're considering suicide, call 1-800-273-TALK to speak with a skilled trained counselor.

If today was the last day of your life, how would you live? By defining your values and purpose in this world, those virtues will provide the guardrails on your path every day. The wisdom of the stoics has been passed down through centuries. However, we ignore that wisdom and let the noise of today distract us from what is truly important. 

On today’s podcast we look to the stoics for the ideas and lessons to create a life worth living.

The world is moving fast. The global pandemic forced many industries to accelerate their digital transformation forward in order to survive. And the mental health system is no different. The need for mental health services forced clients to become comfortable with telehealth services, direct-to-consumer apps or simply into an already overwhelmed and often dubious system. A system that soon probably won’t look like the system that exists today. 

On today’s podcast we look forward to the year 2030 to predict the future of the mental health system.
