Renegade Psych

ACT Therapist Dr. Jessica Borushok: Stop Fighting Anxiety—Change Your Relationship to It:

In this episode of Renegade Psych, psychiatrist Ethan and co-host Ellie Jay examine the Lindsay Clancy case, in which a Massachusetts mother experiencing severe postpartum mental health struggles tragically killed her children. They discuss how Clancy's symptoms evolved over months following the birth of her third child, beginning with anxiety and insomnia and escalating into intrusive thoughts, sleep deprivation, and psychosis. Ethan walks through her extensive medication history — multiple SSRIs, benzodiazepines, and antipsychotics prescribed by a rotating cast of providers, including nurse practitioners — arguing that possible bipolar-spectrum misdiagnosis and SSRI-induced manic reactions may have worsened her condition rather than helping. The conversation highlights the difficulty people have conceptualizing psychosis, noting that the conscious mind can be effectively "shut down" during florid episodes, making it nearly impossible for those who haven't witnessed it to understand how someone could act so far outside their character.

The discussion then broadens into systemic critiques of American healthcare: 15-minute appointment slots that leave no time to build trust or gather collateral information and the deep disconnect between specialties like psychiatry, OBGYN, and endocrinology. Ethan makes a compelling case that estrogen's dramatic post-pregnancy drop likely plays a significant role in postpartum psychosis, citing studies showing estradiol treatment resolving psychotic symptoms in women with critically low levels — yet this approach remains underexplored due to the inability to patent natural hormones and the financial disincentives that follow. They close by calling for a healthcare system that prioritizes patient care over profit, with better integration between specialties and more time invested in understanding each patient's full clinical picture.

ACT Therapist Dr. Jessica Borushok: Stop Fighting Anxiety—Change Your Relationship to It:

In this episode of Renegade Psych, the host speaks with Dr. Jessica Borushok ("The ACT Therapist"), a clinical psychologist and ACT trainer, about shifting from symptom control to values-driven living by building psychological flexibility. They discuss how Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Relational Frame Theory (RFT) explain anxiety, trauma triggers, and the mind's tendency to form symbolic networks that fuel rumination and avoidance. Dr. Borushok breaks down practical ways to notice "hooks," distinguish automatic thoughts from chosen cognitive behaviors, and decide when problem-solving is useful versus when it becomes unhelpful mental avoidance, using tools like metaphors and small committed actions. They also explore perceived vs actual control, how clinicians get stuck in outcome-focused rigidity, the mixed role of diagnosis and medication depending on function, and why she started a YouTube channel to make ACT concepts accessible.

Hey folks, I'm trying something different by posting my full audio episodes on all non-YouTube platforms monthly instead of weekly. You can still see the video with graphics on my YouTube channel, which will separate each full-length interview into appropriately titled segments for more concise viewing. This month, I'm talking again with James Greenblatt, MD and psychiatrist who specializes in an integrative (or functional) approach to psychiatry. Dr. Greenblatt is openly critical of the current shotgun-treatment-approach to mental health, throwing medications and other treatments at conditions without first obtaining more information to decipher potential root causes of things like OCD, addiction, anorexia/eating disorders, bipolarity, depression, anxiety, and more. Dr. Greenblatt has been a critical advocate for the increased use of lithium supplementation to treat lithium deficiency and both of us felt vindicated by the August 2025 Harvard Alzheimer's study, which, in our clinical opinion, is icing on the cake of evidence that lithium supplementation has a clear and obvious role in Alzheimer's prevention and treatment with a phenomenal benefit:risk ratio.

Hey folks, I'm trying something different by posting my full audio episodes on all non-YouTube platforms monthly instead of weekly. This conversation is with Antonio Nardi, MD, and we discuss the immoral and aggressive marketing of SSRIs, overpromised in terms of efficacy and safety profiles, which led to the near-dissolution of use of the MAOI class of antidepressants, which are significantly more effective than SSRIs in treating depression. We also talk about the underutilization of lithium, and how to appropriately use benzodiazepines in clinical practice and find the balance between creating dependence/withdrawal cycles AND using them when they're indicated for short-term or intermittent use. What I see in clinical practitioners is that older docs/providers UNDERESTIMATE the risks of addiction and younger professionals tend to OVERESTIMATE the risks and UNDERUTILIZE this very effective (in the short-term) tool of psychopharmacology. I want to point out EPISTEMIC HUMILITY - knowing what you don't know, as a KEY FEATURE of my talk with Dr. Nardi, and I have so much respect for that being at the heart of his clinical practice philosophy. ENJOY!

Join me as I read a monologue by a 3rd-year DO student (Pikeville, KY), Elizabeth Lukens, about ways to secure unbiased and unattached funding in order to remove financially motivated entities from designing studies and interpreting data sets in a way that is biased towards their ultimate financial profitability goals. In Elizabeth's mind, there are better ways to independently decipher the truth by promoting evaluators disconnected from potential bias to explain how the data and methodology should be interpreted.

Join me and Jon Berner, MD/psychiatrist and PhD, about the broken US healthcare system, the abysmal state of affairs in treating and diagnosing mental health, and, of course, lithium. If you're looking for a polished conversation high on professionalism, keep looking. If you're looking for an unfiltered, in-your-face appraisal of the disastrous consequences of poor psychiatric management, then you're in the right place. Enjoy this multi-part series, and if you're a provider, don't fall victim to the FANTASIES OF UNDERSTANDING REALITY and for God's (or Allah's, or Buddha's, or the Flying Spaghetti Monster's) sake, USE MORE LITHIUM, though IT IS NOT A PANACEA... and for God's sake, do your research on these new anti-amyloid therapies like Lecanemab and Donanemab (Lequembi and Kisunla). Dr. Berner harps on the importance of their extortionate cost, but I think they offer a POOR BENEFIT:RISK ratio with a high side effect burden and low likelihood of efficacy.

Join me as I talk with David Healy, MD, psychiatrist, in a (now 6-part) series discussing his experiences testifying as an expert witness on the role of SSRIs in causing suicide and homicides, and other side effects of this class of medications. In a country with more mass shootings than anywhere in the world, we've got to do a better job of investigating what the role of our medications are in causing suicide and homicide. While SSRIs are very helpful for some people in the short term, and a few in the long-term, others have tragic side effects. The flat reality is that there are not the sheer number and publicity of court cases involving other classes of psychiatric mechanisms of action as there are SSRIs. Join us as we break down this very important potential side effect and help others be better educated so they know what to look out for when starting these medications and when to stop!
