It's Mental Health Awareness Month and Dr. Kim Lannon explores some of the challenges you face in preserving a healthy frame of mind day to day.  While social comparison is necessary it can become an enemy of your well-being when it is not reigned in. Controlling what you think about and how you think of it is necessary as well, especially when what you mostly think about is controlling things that either aren't in your control or maybe even don't exist. How do "90 Day Fiancé", and serial killers fit into this? Listen and find out!

Dr. Kim Lannon talks about rounding out your personal perspective and your view on other people's perspectives.

Dr. Kim Lannon talks about nutritional psychology and explains how what you eat can influence what you feel and think. This is another aspect of controlling our mental health that we undervalue.  

Many feel that nothing in their lives is under their control and their outcomes are victimized by external things. Dr. Kim Lannon explains, that external forces do exist, of course, but we have a lot more say about our outcomes then we generally believe we do. And that control is less overwhelming responsibility than it is an endless opportunity for a happier, healthier life.  

Dr. Kim Lannon talks about her experiences treating PTSD and how important it is to learn to set down our stress and set aside our threat generation, even for short periods of time to begin to learn how to do it for longer periods of time. This is the key to managing our anxieties.
