In 2018, the APA released guidelines to help psychologists work with men and boys. These guidelines recognize that some traditional masculine traits are harmful. This in itself can be damaging because those traits serve a purpose in society. Self sufficiency and independence should be fostered in a healthy way, not seen as risk factors.

On today’s podcast we discuss the war on masculinity.

In 2011, a paper was published in Pharmacogenomics and Personalized Medicine examining the relationship of antidepressants and akathisia side effects in those with genetic mutations in the metabolizing genes of the CYP450 family. In the study, eight of the subjects had committed homicide and many more became extremely violent while on antidepressants. 

On today’s podcast we welcome one of the co-authors, Christopher Crotty, and subject, David Carmichael, to share their stories.

Mass Shootings are, for the most part, an American phenomenon. Why? Since 2014, mass shootings in the United States have increased 157%. Many groups are advocating for change, which we can all agree is necessary. Identifying the root cause is where we have a lot of debate and are often left asking more questions.  

On today’s podcast we discuss the role of mental health in mass shootings.

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.
