Send us a textStep into the raw, powerful journey of Justin, a guest returning to the Self Reflection Podcast, as he joins host Lira Ndifon for an unvarnished conversation on mental health. Justin Witte, author of "The Shadowed Soul" and "A Vicious Cycle," shares his extraordinary experience navigating a life marked by profound childhood abuse, chronic suicidal depression, and a litany of diagnoses including schizoaffective bipolar type, ADHD, dyslexia, PTSD, and an organic brain disorder. Now 19 years sober, Justin reveals how self-reflection, a radical shift in perspective, and the ancient practice of meditation (specifically Chautaka or single-pointed concentration) became his roadmap to rewiring his brain and finding inner peace, even when traditional medications failed.This episode fearlessly confronts the escalating mental health crisis, particularly among men. Lira cites jarring statistics: in 2022, men died by suicide 3.85 times more often than women, with white men accounting for 68.46% of these deaths. Suicide was the 11th leading cause of death in America, with 49,476 lives lost and an estimated 1.6 million attempts. Justin unpacks complex societal factors contributing to this crisis, including the isolating impact of technology, shifting gender roles, economic pressures requiring higher education, and the often-unacknowledged struggles of men in modern society. He argues that the increasing disconnect from genuine human interaction and the curated realities of social media exacerbate feelings of worthlessness and contribute to the alarming rise in depression and anxiety. Justin offers profound insights into the nature of suffering, panic attacks, and the illusion of external reality, drawing from his unique blend of personal experience, Western science, and Eastern philosophies like Vedanta. He vividly describes the terrifying grip of panic attacks and how he overcame them through focused meditation, emphasizing the neuroplasticity of the human brain. This conversation is a vital call for empathy and action, urging listeners to seek support if struggling, and to embrace the transformative power of self-expression and connection. Discover how to reframe your thoughts, challenge perceptions, and navigate your own path to healing, purpose, and a life lived in conscious awareness.Support the showCall to Action: Engage with the Self-Reflection Podcast community!

What happens when a “healthy” habit becomes harmful?

Sabrina shares her personal journey of feeling trapped in a cycle of overexercising and disordered eating, and how she began healing her relationship with movement, food, and her body. Together, we unpack why exercise addiction often goes unnoticed (and even encouraged), how it can overlap with binge eating and restriction cycles, and what sustainable, compassionate recovery can look like.

Ever felt like recovery is a mountain that's just too steep to climb? You're not alone. In this powerful episode of The Addicted Mind Podcast, host Duane Osterlind tackles the most damaging myths that keep people trapped in cycles of addiction and shame. Drawing inspiration from Johan Hari's profound insight that "the opposite of addiction isn't just sobriety, it's connection," Duane explores how recovery isn't about perfect willpower or never making mistakes – it's about reconnecting with yourself, your values, and others who support your journey. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed by shame, or convinced you're "too broken" to heal, this episode offers a compassionate roadmap forward. Duane breaks down six harmful myths that create invisible barriers to recovery and provides practical strategies to move beyond them. You'll discover why slip-ups aren't total failures but opportunities for growth, why your addiction doesn't define your identity, and why the trust you think you've permanently lost can actually be rebuilt over time. Most importantly, you'll learn that healing isn't linear – it moves in waves, with highs and lows that are all part of the journey. Through challenging negative thinking patterns, reconnecting with your values, developing healthy coping strategies, and practicing self-compassion, you can rewrite your recovery story. The path isn't about perfection or living up to others' expectations; it's about choosing actions that align with your values each day, even in small steps. As Duane reminds us, recovery is possible for everyone. Your story is still being written, and it has the potential to unfold in ways you can't yet imagine. This episode includes a downloadable worksheet to help you identify and rewrite the myths holding you back on your journey to healing and connection.

In this episode of Positive Recovery MD, host Jamie Demeris sits down with Greg Walker, a husband, father, entrepreneur, and recovery advocate, who shares his extraordinary journey from addiction to freedom. With refreshing honesty, Greg opens up about the power of vulnerability, the strength found in community, and the peace he discovered through his relationship with God. Greg's story is one of second chances and spiritual transformation. From running a successful business to quietly battling a 21-year addiction to opiates and heroin, Greg sheds the layers of shame and isolation that once kept him trapped. What finally changed everything? A commitment to authenticity, a newfound faith, and a desire to walk alongside other men through their own healing. Whether you're navigating recovery yourself or supporting someone you love, this episode is a heartfelt reminder that healing is possible, peace is within reach, and you are never alone. Vulnerability isn't weakness; it's the key to building a life where you can truly flourish.
