"When people with PTSD [post-traumatic stress disorder] get quite avoidant—and that can be expressed in so many different ways—the implications can be really profound. I think an important invitation to oncologists and oncology nurses and primary care providers who care for people battling cancer is let's explore what's underneath these avoidant behaviors. Is it a very practical thing? Or is it that underneath this avoidant behavior is really profound fear?" James C. Jackson, PsyD, research professor at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, TN, told Lenise Taylor, MN, RN, AOCNS®, TCTCN™, oncology clinical specialist at ONS, during a conversation about addressing medical trauma in oncology.

They may not avoid the annual evaluation that is so hugely consequential—they might not avoid that. But they may well avoid a routine visit for a checkup to their oncologist. They very well may avoid a visit with a psychologist who is wanting them to talk about hard things. They may avoid visiting a friend in the hospital because it reminds them of really upsetting things. So, this issue of adherence and compliance is a really big problem." TS 3:19 "Screening tools for things like PTSD can be very useful. They're quite practical, and they're appropriate to use. I really like something called the Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist. ... Using it is going to be very straightforward. You're going to want to map it onto a 30-day window, and you're going to employ it with patients. It's a 20-item self-report. It assesses 20 DSM-5 symptoms of PTSD. It's not diagnostic, but if people score in this range of 30, 31, 33, we typically are going to believe that that is very suggestive of significant PTSD." TS 9:17 "One of the things we should be doing all the time is modeling and attempting to normalize this idea of being open about mental health difficulties. When I say modeling, this is a complicated issue. ... I'm very open talking about my own battles with mental health. And in some ways, that invites my patients to do the same. I don't recommend necessarily that a nurse says, 'Oh, by the way, I have PTSD. I'm going to tell you about mine. I want you to tell me about yours.' That's a boundary issue. But I think it does behoove us as clinicians to create a culture as much as we're able, where we can talk about mental health difficulties in a matter-of-fact way, acknowledging that mental health is health. These tools, to me, go a long way in that direction." TS 13:41 "The survivorship process is ongoing. I think a nurse can assist a patient in so many ways longitudinally over time. ... One of those ways is to continue checking on mental health outcomes in patients. Continuing to check on mental health outcomes, continuing to explore them, and continuing to invite patients to talk about things that other people might not be asking about. It's easy for family members to assume, 'Hey, you know, you're cancer free now. You look fine, so you must be fine.' It's very possible that the patients we're talking about are not fine. They're far from fine. For that oncology nurse at a follow-up clinic or in an oncology setting to talk about this, continuing to affirm that it would be okay for patients to struggle, continuing to put this issue on a front burner—I think that's really important." TS 21:17 "I'm aware of nurse-led support groups where nurses can talk very freely about their own challenges, in a safe space. ... Working to build cultures in the context of the intensive care unit, let's say, where we have a lot of patients with cancer that prioritize well-being nurse driven programs. ...  The bottom line is if there is a warning light that is blinking, nurses need to attend to that. And in attending to it, they're going to be more present for their patient. They're going to be better able to support their patient. They're going to be better able to support each other. And I think often, in the culture of nursing and psychology, too, people just put their head down, their shoulder down, and they just plow through in ways that are really counter to their mental health." TS 29:56 "The truth is medical trauma can be well-managed. It's not simple. It's not always intuitive. There are all sorts of caveats with regard to this, but the truth is people with medical trauma can live really rich and meaningful lives. ... So, the default setting, I think, should be not one of pessimism. It should be that people with medical trauma can and do get better. If you are a patient with medical trauma and you are in my purview, until proven differently, I'm going to assume that you can get better too." TS 36:28

Cyndy Etler was 13 years old when she chose foster care over going home. Her mother had stood in the bathroom doorway and watched her stepfather hurt her, and that was enough. She chose the ink on the fingertips at the police station over the house she had been living in.What followed was a month at Janus House — a youth shelter in Bridgeport, Connecticut, where the staff were the first adults who ever gave her a choice and respected the answer. It was there, at 14, walking to the corner store with a pack of Marlboro Reds and a new sense of what an adult could be for a kid, that she was struck by lightning. She knew what she was supposed to do with her life.Then her mother enrolled her in Straight Incorporated.Straight was a warehouse program that ran under the guise of drug rehabilitation. Parents signed over their child and left. The ACLU later described it as a concentration camp for throwaway teens. Cyndy had smoked marijuana three times and drunk beer once. She was held for 16 months, with her first contact with her mother not happening until five months in, through a supervised visit with a scripted exchange. She came out brainwashed, isolating in high school bathroom stalls, telling kids who tried to talk to her that they were not in her best interest.Then an English teacher saw her writing, read it out loud to the class, and said: Cyndy wrote that.On Episode 239 of Fine is a 4-Letter Word, Cyndy Etler — foster care survivor, Straight Inc. survivor, trained boxer, summa cum laude graduate, teen life coach, and author of Dead Inside and We Can't Be Friends — talks with Lori Saitz about what it took to get from there to here, what one adult's genuine interest can do for a kid's entire life, and why she tells every teenager she works with to watch for the adult who sees them and wants absolutely nothing in return.Her books are Dead Inside and We Can't Be Friends.

#ZOMER2: Sanne te Meerman – ADHD: Een diagnose of een beschrijvende classificatie?

Succesvol leven met ADD / ADHD

Ik hoor vele verschillende theorieën over AD(H)D om mij heen. "ADHD, dat zit in je genen." "ADHD is erfelijk." "ADHD is afkomstig van trauma." Alsof het een soort biologische blauwdruk is waar je weinig invloed op hebt. Maar wat als dat beeld te simpel is? Wat als ADHD eerder een beschrijving is van gedrag in een bepaalde context, dan een meetbare aandoening? In deze aflevering spreek ik met Sanne te Meerman. Hij is, samen met onder andere Laura Batstra, de drijvende kracht achter het project Druk en Dwars. We praten over hoe de maatschappij ADHD steeds vaker presenteert als iets vaststaands, bijna alsof het een object is in je hoofd. En over wat het met je kan doen als je jezelf gaat zien als je diagnose. We hebben het over: • Waarom ADHD in de DSM eigenlijk alleen gedrag classificeert, maar niks verklaart. • Hoe de rol van genen, omgeving, stress, schoolstructuren en zelfs je geboortemaand samen kunnen bepalen of je als ADHD'er wordt gezien. • Waarom we zo graag geloven in het biologische narratief. We staan stil bij het effect van labels. Wanneer helpen ze? En wanneer gaan ze je bepalen? En we vragen ons af: Wat gebeurt er als je als kind leert denken: “Dit is nu eenmaal hoe ik ben, ik heb ADHD.” Welke ruimte blijft er dan nog over om te groeien? Dit is geen aflevering tegen diagnoses. Het is een uitnodiging om anders te kijken. ADHD is niet iets vaststaands, er is geen eenduidige oorzaak, maar een multifactorieel probleem, waarbij de mix van oorzakelijke factoren voor iedereen heel anders kan zijn. Voor wie zich herkent in ADHD-symptomen, voor ouders, leerkrachten, hulpverleners, of simpelweg voor wie nieuwsgierig is naar wat er gebeurt als we gedrag gaan labelen als stoornis. Heb je twijfels over het ADHD verhaal? Of ben je gewoon nieuwsgierig naar een andere insteek? Dan is deze aflevering zeker iets voor jou. Heel veel luisterplezier!

Send us Fan MailAnger can be normal. What's terrifying is when the anger shows up like a switch flip, blows past logic, and leaves damage behind. We dig into Intermittent Explosive Disorder (IED), a DSM-5 diagnosis defined by repeated episodes of impulsive aggression, and we unpack why it can look like “a bad temper” while actually behaving more like a nervous system alarm that won't shut off.We talk through what IED tends to sound and feel like in real life: screaming over something minor, punching walls, breaking objects, or snapping at people you love. We also spend time on the aftermath that almost nobody sees, the shame, regret, and embarrassment that can hit once the episode ends. That guilt can quietly fuel the next blowup, creating a brutal loop that hurts confidence and relationships.From there we explore likely contributors: genetics, brain chemistry and serotonin, and the brain's threat system, including the amygdala and the frontal cortex's role in impulse control. We connect the dots on how trauma, unpredictable caregiving, and growing up around yelling or violence can train the brain to detect danger everywhere, even in everyday stress like criticism, disagreement, or frustration. We also share personal perspective on what it's like to live around these episodes and why “just calm down” usually fails in the moment.We close with hope and practical next steps: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), stress management, sleep, exercise, reducing alcohol, relaxation skills, mindfulness, and when appropriate, medication support.

Hi guys! Today's episode is super duper long and I truly have stopped caring, there's so much corruption in this world and it deserves to be covered. What corruption are we going over this week? Glad you asked! This is a continuation on our deep-dive into WHY women were actually banned from clinical research in 1977. It is absolutely crucial we understand who is behind this as *ahem* women matter and it's also Disability Pride Month! Thank you all for taking the time to listen or at least check out the resources (scroll down for the databases) - if any sources are missing it's because Youtube and podcast sites usually have a 5K letter limit. I'm using those letters explaining this - but if you need to find something, write down the key words I used and type them into ToxicDocs. By the way, NO, this is not sponsored by ToxicDocs as that's not how research databases roll. I'm just a fan. I appreciate you all! Thank you again for listening.

Why do neurofeedback practitioners get way better results than the published studies? A listener from the Neurofeedback Exchange Facebook group asked — and the panel spent the hour answering. Joy Lunt's short version: research runs in "the tightest handcuffs you could find." Jay Gunkelman brings the receipts: one artifacted EEG file sent to 15 commercial services came back as pure chaos — and the journal editor called the paper too embarrassing to publish, until Jay threatened to resign. Then the hard-criteria bombshell: standard protocols scored 30%, QEEG-guided hit 60%. Plus the $3M NIMH ADHD study that changed its hypothesis midstream, why BCIA certification doesn't guarantee a good provider, Jay's "the diagnosis world is imaginary," and the kid who lost 80 sessions of progress to one bike crash — and got it back in 24.

On this episode we discuss Dr. Karen Mitchell's book Human Predators and her research on harmful people across settings such as business, law, medicine, media, religion, and politics. She argues that predators outside prison are common, often act covertly through emotional and social abuse, and share similar traits and tactics regardless of labels like narcissist or psychopath. We also discuss her view that the DSM can blur distinctions between predators and traumatized victims, especially in categories like borderline personality disorder and antisocial personality disorder. Karen describes how predators target vulnerable “prey,” use gaslighting and coercion, and can cause severe psychological harm, while also pointing to behavioral red flags and the need for better awareness and screening in leadership roles. Karen's recommended shows: Wild republic (German miniseries) Fifteen-Love (British miniseries) Unknown Number: The High School Catfish Wild, Wild Country Escaping Utopia Fake (Australian miniseries) The Tinder Swindler Dr Death The Family Karen's book is now available here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1923630423/ Website: https://www.kalmor.com.au/ Twitter: https://x.com/karenmitchell__ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drkarenmitchell_/ MindMatters on odysee: https://odysee.com/@MindMatters:4

In this episode of Mind the Kids, the podcast from the Association for Child and Adolescent Mental Health (ACAMH), host Clara Faria — academic clinical fellow in child psychiatry — is joined by Dr. Karolin Krause, clinical epidemiologist and measurement scientist at the Center for Research in Epidemiology and Statistics (CRESS), Université Paris Cité.Dr. Krause shares findings from her recently published paper in JCPP, the Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry. The paper — a scoping umbrella review — systematically maps 80 instruments used to measure life impact in youth mental health research across three interconnected domains: functioning, quality of life, and well-being. Despite major international core outcome set initiatives — including ICHOM and In-ROADS — consistently identifying functioning and quality of life as critical outcomes alongside symptoms, no consensus exists on which instruments to use, and the landscape remains highly fragmented.The rationale runs deeper than methodology. Outcomes measurement in child and adolescent mental health is foundational to evidence-based, person-centred care. Symptom severity and life impact do not always move in step — the DSM-5 itself requires both symptom threshold and clinically significant impairment for diagnosis, yet instruments frequently conflate the two constructs, making it difficult to track which improves first in treatment and whether the gains that matter most to young people are being captured. Across the 80 instruments identified, the review found wide variation in informant type, length, age range, and developmental setting. More than a quarter were classified differently across reviews — a consequence of unclear construct definitions, limited co-production with young people, and what the paper terms "jingle-jangle fallacies." A notable gap emerges for the 19–24 age group navigating the transition from CAMHS to adult services, for whom no instrument has been specifically validated.Clara and Karolin discuss why functioning and life impact deserve dedicated measurement separate from symptom scales, the case for self-report over adult-observer-dominated measures, the trade-offs of multi-informant approaches, and a Wellcome-funded project focused on the development of an evidence synthesis platform for patient-reported outcome measure selection aimed at making evidence-based instrument choice more accessible to researchers worldwide”A must-listen for anyone working in child and adolescent mental health, CAMHS outcomes, youth mental health outcomes measurement, functioning measures, quality of life in children and young people, patient-reported outcome measures, or routine outcome measurement in research and practice.The the JCPP paper 'Research Review: Measuring life impact of youth mental health difficulties: scoping umbrella review of 80 instruments'Karolin R.

Global Reverberations of Palestinian Historical Trauma: A SAND Community Gathering with Dr. Samah Jabr, Dr. Gabor Maté & Dr. Jennifer Mullan, facilitated by Dr. Jess Ghannam Join us for a conversation marking the book launch of Radiance and Pain in Resilience, a powerful collection of essays by Palestinian psychiatrist, psychotherapist, and internationally respected mental health advocate Dr. Samah Jabr. We are gathering in the midst of genocide. The massive, deliberate traumatization of an entire people, cheered, funded, and shielded from accountability by Western governments, is unfolding in real time. As Israel's assault on Gaza continues to annihilate bodies, families, and entire lineages, this conversation refuses to look away. It asks what it is to tend to the psyche under conditions of systematic destruction. Drawing on decades of clinical practice, political analysis, and lived experience under occupation, Dr. Jabr examines the psychological consequences of colonization, displacement, and historical trauma on the Palestinian people. Through personal reflections, case studies, and cultural critique, she challenges dominant Western paradigms of mental health and offers a decolonial, psycho-spiritual framework rooted in dignity, collective care, resistance, and truth. Proceeds from this conversation go directly to Project Hope Palestine, supporting 500 orphaned children living at Al-Baraka orphan camp in Gaza. Guests Dr. Samah Jabr is a psychiatrist practicing in Palestine, serving communities in East Jerusalem and the West Bank. She was formerly Head of the Mental Health Unit within the Palestinian Ministry of Health and is an Associate Clinical Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at George Washington University. She is the author of several books including Behind the Frontlines, Sumud, Sumud in Times of Genocide, and most recently Radiance in Pain and Resilience: The Global Reverberations of Palestinian Historical Trauma. Dr. Gabor Maté is a physician, trauma expert, and bestselling author of The Myth of Normal, In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts, and When the Body Says No. Dr. Jennifer Mullan is a clinical psychologist and the author of the national bestseller Decolonizing Therapy: Oppression, Historical Trauma, and Politicizing Your Practice.

The central divide in psychiatry, the split between mind and brain, has been holding the field back and preventing people from getting the help they truly since its inception. Dr. Edward Bullmore, psychiatrist and author of The Inflamed Mind and The Divided Mind, has spent 35 years witnessing psychiatry struggle with this false dichotomy. In this conversation, we trace how the trauma of WWII rewrote the diagnostic manual, how antidepressants were discovered by accident and the science was reverse-engineered to justify them, and why the biggest genetic hits in schizophrenia research point not to neurons but to the immune system. If you've ever felt that the current system offers too little too late or that the answers must lie somewhere between biology and biography, this episode is for you.In this episode we discuss:The false brain/mind split that has defined and distorted psychiatry for over a centuryWhy the DSM is rooted in false science and has not held up to recent findingsWhy treatment for schizophrenia hasn't fundamentally changed since the 1980sGenome-wide association studies: what they reveal about schizophrenia, immunity, and shared genetic risk across diagnosesEarly life stressors and epigenetic riskThe case for integrating psychiatry with the rest of medicinePublic health interventions as mental health interventions; why maternal and child health may be the highest-leverage pointHow psychiatry might fundamentally change and what Dr. Bullmore hopes to leave for the next generationBioEd Bullmore studied medicine at the University of Oxford and St Bartholomew's Hospital in London, before training as a psychiatrist at the Maudsley Hospital, and completing a PhD in brain MRI analysis at the Institute of Psychiatry, King's College London. He moved to Cambridge as Professor of Psychiatry in 1999 and his research on brain networks and development of severe mental health disorders has since been highly cited. He was Head of the Department of Psychiatry, then Deputy Head of the School of Clinical Medicine in the University of Cambridge from 2014 to 2024.From 2005 to 2019, he also worked half-time for GlaxoSmithKline, focusing on the links between inflammation and depression, as described in his first book, The Inflamed Mind. He has recently published another book, The Divided Mind, about the past, present and future of schizophrenia. His scientific work has been recognised by election to the Royal Society and the Academy of Medical Sciences. In 2025, he returned to King's College London as the Regius Professor of Psychiatry and Head of the School of Academic Psychiatry.Links:The Guardian: Review of The Divided Mind https://www.theguardian.com/books/2025/dec/17/the-divided-mind-by-edward-bullmore-review-do-we-now-know-what-causes-schizophreniaThe Times Interview: https://www.thetimes.com/life-style/health-fitness/article/psychiatrist-edward-bullmore-divided-mind-schizophrenia-cause-childhood-infection-gm99jzjhm?gaa_at=eafs&gaa_n=AWEtsqfDuktSniOg_lxW5VLwPpLbpeIXNW3mCiER6PIWqRn99oF0SO8llQH-&gaa_ts=69c1a808&gaa_sig=l3rw9dUnzBnRd5S1Q7xd7qTqOE8Kpu63ROoP6N2ANWLN9bJw0cf4d24hJd3JqEhDoXiGaotrTHKgjV0ZMafQKw%3D%3DTelegraph Interview: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/health-fitness/conditions/dementia/prevent-schizophrenia-alzheimers/Resources:Find videos and bonus episodes: ⁠⁠⁠DEPTHWORK.SUBSTACK.COM⁠⁠⁠Get the book: ⁠⁠⁠⁠Mad Studies Reader: Interdisciplinary Innovations in Mental Health⁠⁠⁠Become a member: ⁠⁠⁠The Institute for the Development of Human Arts⁠⁠⁠Train with us: ⁠⁠⁠Transformative Mental Health Core Curriculum⁠⁠Sessions & Information about the host: ⁠⁠⁠⁠JazmineRussell.com⁠⁠⁠⁠Disclaimer: The DEPTH Work Podcast is for educational and entertainment purposes only.

Jay Gunkelman is handed one clue — the patient is 17 — and reads the EEG blind. From the brainwave patterns alone, he explains why the recording points toward a right-hemisphere traumatic brain injury and discusses the cortical hyperexcitability that may follow. Before the cold-read, a published study flips addiction treatment on its head: treat the brain's EEG phenotype instead of the DSM label. In a 30-person case series, this was associated with an average General Intellectual Ability (GIA) increase from 99 to 120 over one year, as discussed in the episode.

They work through real examples, rereading pages, checking out of meetings, losing focus on audiobooks even at double speed, and land on why none of it happens during a good movie or video game.The conversation distinguishes between attention that drifts because a task is boring and attention that locks in because something is stimulating, and why that distinction matters more than effort or discipline.

The Prosperity Lie of Positive Thinking

How did Norman Vincent Peale’s book, The Power of Positive Thinking, pave the way for the prosperity gospel and the law of attraction that still has its claws in today’s culture? That’s what we explore in this episode of The Gentle Rebel Podcast. Part One explored Peale’s foundations in the New Thought Movement of the nineteenth century and its theological departure from Puritanical Calvinism. Part Two linked Peale’s version of Positive Thinking with the corporate culture of the twentieth century. We saw how it provided bonus benefits to companies laying off workers. In Part Three, we look at links between Positive Thinking and the Prosperity Gospel, and its potential to exploit vulnerable people with promises of great wealth in exchange for willingly giving their money and going into debt because of promises made by those in power over them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJaPrhOSnxw&feature=youtu.be The Prosperity Theology of Positive Thinking This brings us full circle to the ‘theological’ dimension of Peale’s project. One of the most common complaints in reviews of The Power of Positive Thinking is that it unexpectedly contains so many references to God and the Bible. But this is the point of it. Peale builds on the New Thought tradition, using Bible verses to support the law of attraction he proposes, driven by a god who “rates you according to the size of your prayers”, and rewards you if you dream big and visualise having already received the objects you desire. Norman Vincent Peale was a minister who used his position to gain credibility and status in the eyes of his followers. As God’s spokesman, he was taken seriously when he preached. But as we saw in the first part, he was an expert at cherry-picking Bible verses to suit his purposes, stripping them of their narrower and broader theological contexts. The Formula For Peale’s Law of Attraction Peale turns basic psychology into cosmic superstition. As we saw in the previous episode, when he took the story of Job and interpreted his words, “What I feared has come upon me and what I dreaded has happened to me”, as meaning Job invited his fate BECAUSE he feared it. This conforms to Peale’s scientific formula for success (and failure): “Affirm it, visualize it, believe it, and it will actualize itself.” Whether it’s something we desire or something we fear, it will actualise itself if we think about it. “When you expect the best, you release a magnetic force in your mind which by a law of attraction tends to bring the best to you.” Of course, we understand that confirmation bias means that when we expect something to be true, we are more likely to find evidence to support it. As such, we might lead ourselves towards outcomes if we believe something has made them more certain. All Things Are Possible… Peale tells the story of a faith healer who helps a struggling baseball team on a losing streak. They were riddled with doubt and didn’t believe they could win. One day, the coach asked for the team’s bats and then disappeared with them. When he returned, he excitedly told the players that the preacher had blessed the bats. They now contained a power that could not be overcome. “The players were astounded and delighted,” Peale reports. “The next day they overwhelmed Dallas, getting 37 base hits and 20 runs.” “All things are possible to him that believeth”, Peale affirms, implying that God rewards faith. This raises the question: Is God needed in this equation, or is it just a belief in God held by those seeking a change of fortune? And if this is the case, how is this exploited? Televangelism and The Allure of Prosperity In Smile or Die, Barbara Ehrenreich writes about the televangelist and leader of a Texas megachurch, Joel Osteen. She cites a passage from one of his books in which he describes his initial resistance to his wife’s pleas to upgrade to a bigger house. Eventually, he was talked into agreeing. He said it was only because Victoria had used words of faith to persuade him to broaden his vision. This meant God showed him how much more he had in store for him. He presented it as self-sacrifice and obedience to God, rather than an act of indulgence. This is an application of Peale’s core message. It uses God as a justification for desire. The appearance of material wealth and success is presented as confirmation that you are doing God’s work. It is a reward for your faith. This extraction ecosystem encourages followers to give their resources to trusted spokespeople for God. The explicit promise is that doing so will trigger a transactional response from God. The God Complex of The Rich and Powerful Ehrenreich points to the God complex present in the executive mindset. Steve Eisman calls it ‘hedge fund disease’, which he suggests should be included in the DSM-5. It is conspicuous in the symptoms of megalomania, narcissism, and solipsism. It boils down to the more money you have, the more right you feel about everything. And “to think something is to make it happen.” Because of the power and wealth you have access to wield, in a sense, “You’re God”. We see this at play today, with the rich and powerful indulging in projects well outside their areas of expertise. They try to dictate tastes, behaviours, and trends, so they might exploit their followers’ trust. And, much like prosperity-gospel preachers, they persuade people to follow their advice by promising great future returns. We’ve seen this in NFT scams, pump-and-dump crypto coins, and AI investment advice. Some of these figures are delusional. While others are cold and calculating in their efforts to exploit and extract wealth from those who trust them. Breaking The Spell The Power of Positive Thinking reinforces a delusional superstition. Fear itself becomes something to fear, avoid, or eradicate, rather than to listen to and respond to appropriately. It is also delusively aspirational, portraying capitalism as a system that rewards all who believe in it, while ignoring the inherent logic of a system that functions because of inequality. Peale follows in Napoleon Hill’s footsteps, believing that poverty and suffering are simply the result of poor thinking and insufficient passion and desire for wealth. This episode is part of the project I’m working on, ‘looking at notable books and figures in the self-help industry. It is about slowing down to examine and expand my own critical thinking.

They score themselves against each one in real time, and they don't agree on most of them.The conversation covers why the criteria were written for children and then loosely translated for adults, why "close attention to detail" means something different for someone who triple checks every payment versus someone who doesn't notice errors at all, and why your own family's version of "normal" can hide a pattern you've had your whole life. Skye also explains the difference between primarily inattentive, primarily hyperactive, and combined type, and why subclinical scores still matter even if you never meet the full six-symptom threshold.If you've ever wondered whether you "really" have ADHD or just relate to some of it, this episode shows you exactly what's being measured and why that question is harder to answer than it sounds.What We Cover:The actual nine inattentive criteria from the DSM-5, read directly from the manualWhy the same criterion can apply to one person and not the other, even with shared ADHDHow the criteria shift between children and adultsWhy family normal can mask a lifelong patternThe difference between subclinical and clinical, and why it still matters P.S.

Does this sound familiar?“I'm busy all day, but I don't get anything done. I want something to show for my efforts.”“Everyone in my life is tired of my lateness and unreliability.”“I can't get motivated unless I'm facing a deadline, and what I produce isn't as good as it could be.”In this episode of A Mind of Her Own with Jennifer Reid, MD, we hear from adult ADHD expert, J. Russell Ramsay, PhD about a new way of viewing ADHD: as fundamentally a self-regulation problem, not an attention problem. The name is misleading. What's really impaired is the ability to organize behavior across time in order to consistently follow through on what you intend to do.CBT adapted for ADHD works differently than standard CBT. The focus isn't on changing negative thoughts. It's on reverse-engineering the how of not doing things, then building explicit step-by-step plans. The goal is slowing down the executive function deliberately, making implicit steps external and visible.The Core Executive Functions Affected in ADHD:* Inhibition (pausing before responding automatically)* Nonverbal working memory (mental simulation and planning)* Verbal working memory (internal self-talk and staying on track)* Emotional regulation and motivation (generating drive in the absence of immediate consequences)* Reconstitution (flexible, creative problem-solving)Emotional dysregulation is a core feature, but it's invisible in the DSM. Emotions don't appear in the diagnostic criteria at all, yet they drive much of what people actually struggle with: impulsive reactions, difficulty tolerating discomfort, and using guilt as a misguided motivator.Women are significantly under-diagnosed and diagnosed later. CDC data from 2024 found that 50% of people with ADHD were diagnosed at age 18 or older, and 61% of those were women. Girls' symptoms often appear on the playground rather than in the classroom, with social disruption rather than academic chaos, making them easier to overlook. Women are also more likely to be diagnosed first with anxiety or depression.Self-mistrust is a hallmark and often mistaken for low confidence. After years of inconsistent follow-through, many adults with ADHD stop trusting themselves to do what they set out to do. This isn't simply low self-esteem; it's a learned pattern of doubting one's own reliability, often amplified by the unspoken message: it must be something I'm doing wrong.High functioning doesn't mean unaffected. Many people mask symptoms for years through compensatory strategies: all-nighters, parental scaffolding, sheer willpower, until the scaffolding is removed or life demands multiply (new job, parenthood, caregiving, perimenopause).Front-end perfectionism drives procrastination. The biggest cognitive distortion in ADHD isn't negativity, it's the belief that conditions must be perfect before starting. Waiting to feel focused, energized, or “in the mood” guarantees perpetual delay. The reframe: Do I have enough to begin?ADHD also brings real strengths. Creativity, the ability to hyper-focus in stimulating environments, hands-on intuitive knowledge, persistence when engaged, and the capacity for innovative thinking are all genuine advantages, not consolation prizes.Resources Mentioned* Book: Once I Get Started: The Adult ADHD Program for Turning Your Intentions into Actions — Dr. Russell Ramsay (Avery/Penguin Random House, May 2025)* Book: You Mean I'm Not Lazy, Stupid or Crazy?! — Kate Kelly & Peggy Ramundo (mid-90s classic, still widely cited)* Book: The Power of Habit — Charles Duhigg (source of the “keystone habit” concept)* Book: The Extended Mind: The Power of Thinking Outside the Brain — Annie Murphy Paul (on environment, cognition, and the need for solitude)* Book: Living Well with Adult ADHD: Practical Strategies for Improving Your Daily Life — Dr. Laura Knouse & Dr. Russell Barkley (Guilford Press, 2025)* Researcher: Dr. Margaret Sibley — Professor of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences, University of Washington; leading work on adult ADHD diagnosis guidelines through the American Professional Society of ADHD and Related Disorders (APSARD)* Researcher: Dr. Russ Barkley — foundational work on ADHD as executive dysfunction* Assessment tool: QB Test (Qbtech) — computerized continuous performance task used to objectively measure attention, impulsivity, and activity* Website: cbt4adhd.com — Dr. Ramsay's practice, contact form, and resourcesAbout Dr. Russell RamsayDr. J.

PSA: psychiatry does not have any case reports of diseases that are validated! This shortcoming of the DSM is why Luis dropped out of psychology and instead chose holistic psychology. As Luis sees it, behavior is not a fixed identity. There is no biochemical data proving “mental disease”. What we can track is neurotransmitters, like seratonin. 50-90% of these are made in the gut. Cue nutrition. Food is a shortcut to influencing change in the brain's biochemistry. Carbs influence glucose, which plays an active role in our mood. If you would like to track your glucose consider getting a glucose monitor like hellolingo.com for two weeks to gather data. Notice what you eat, how you feel, your activities, and your mood, all relative to the continuous glucose monitor's data. If you would like to see Luis' hellolingo.com glucose charts, tune in to the YouTube video version of this podcast.  If you are curious about using nutrition to support your mental health, check out our 6 month Embodied Nutrition Slow group, starting July 7th 2026,:https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/slow-practice-nutrition-groupYou can read more about, and register for, the upcoming 6 month "Embodied Nutrition" program here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/slow-practice-nutrition-group----You can learn more on the website: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/You can follow Luis on Instagram @holistic.life.navigationQuestions?

In this episode of The Body Grievers® Club, Bri joins therapist/social worker Monica Freudenreich to discuss eating disorders versus disordered eating, emphasizing that most people with eating disorders often go unrecognized or dismissed by providers who lack specialized training and may be influenced by diet culture trends. They describe how diagnostic labels can shift, how insurance and treatment systems affect care, and why focusing on functioning and quality of life matters more than whether someone meets a specific DSM threshold. They critique applying abstinence-based addiction models to food, highlight how "health" is often reduced to weight, and explore the roles of rest, connection, joy, and reducing shame in healing. They also preview an upcoming master class for providers and individuals on assessment, blind spots, body image, and practical strategies. 04:18 Recognizing Disordered Eating 06:58 Monica's ED Work Journey 09:55 Bri's ED Center Reality 12:41 Provider Dissonance Dieting 18:57 Labels Don't Matter 25:42 Healing Inside Diet Culture 35:36 Rest as Radical Health 37:25 Rethinking Addiction and Connection 38:54 Comfort Coping Without Shame 47:55 Rejecting Diet Culture 50:18 About the Masterclass   EPISODE RESOURCES: Join our upcoming masterclass: Eating Disorder vs. Disordered Eating Johann Hari: Everything you think you know about addiction is wrong https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PY9DcIMGxMs  Episode 37: Rest Feels Unsafe Get on the waitlist for Body Image Bootcamp for providers at https://bodyimagewithbri.mykajabi.com/bootcamp-waitlist-2025    WANT MORE OF MONICA FREUDENREICH? https://www.monicafreudenreich.com/    WANT MORE OF BRI? *Instagram: @bodyimagewithbri

I sit down with Dr. Jennifer Huffman, a board-certified pediatric neuropsychologist, PDA woman with lived experience, and creator of the Neurodynamic Navigator System and the Neurodynamic Quotient. After twenty-five years working with children whose profiles were called often called ODD (Oppositional Defiant Disorder), she developed a framework to make the dynamic, fluctuating nature of the PDA brain visible and usable for parents, teachers, and clinicians.We talk about her childhood as an undiagnosed PDA autistic person, why ODD as a diagnosis isn't helpful, how she assesses children who cannot come into an office, and the app she is building to help families. After all that great insight, just her closing message for parents of PDA kids in burnout makes this episode worth a listen.Key TakeawaysGrowing Up as an Undiagnosed PDA Autistic Neuropsychologist | 00:02:48 Dr. Huffman describes a childhood marked by academic failure in math from third grade, severe bullying that led her parents to drive her thirty minutes each way to attend school in a different town, and the recurring experience of being told she was not living up to her potential. She names the specific mechanism she now recognizes in herself: she cannot process on demand. If someone tells her to do something, or if it feels redundant, her brain shuts off. This is not willfulness. It is the same mechanism she has spent twenty-five years helping children and families understand. She describes finding neuropsychology in her third year of undergraduate study as a light bulb moment, not because she wanted a career but because she was trying to figure out her own brain.The ODD Buster: Why Oppositional Defiant Disorder Is So Often the Wrong Label | 00:12:39 Dr. Huffman describes spending twenty-five years working with the complex cases other clinicians could not crack, children who had been given ODD diagnoses and whom nobody wanted to work with. She calls herself the ODD buster and states directly that in her clinical experience, she has rarely seen a child who actually had ODD. What she consistently found underneath that label was high empathy, anxiety, sensory differences, social communication differences, and learning differences, often in combination. She names ODD as an example of a DSM category built by non-neurodivergent clinicians describing externalized behavior without curiosity about what is underneath it.How She Assesses Children Who Cannot Come Into an Office | 00:17:38 Dr. Huffman explains that when a child is in burnout and cannot access evaluation, the work does not begin with the child. It begins with the parent: helping them advocate with the school, coordinating with medical providers who may not understand why the child cannot leave the house, and slowly building a relationship with the child themselves. She describes spending six months to a year playing Minecraft with a child before any formal assessment data is collected, and names this as genuinely valuable clinical time. She also holds PSYPACT certification, which allows her to work with families across most of the United States without the family ever entering her office.The Neurodynamic Quotient: Making the Dynamic Nature of the PDA Brain Visible | 00:36:57 Dr. Huffman introduces the Neurodynamic Quotient, her framework for understanding why PDA children can do something one day and appear to lose the skill the next. The formula combines dynamic safety, which includes felt safety, connection, information, and autonomy, with dynamic capacity, which includes the battery, sensory load, and executive functioning scaffolding, plus motivation. She explains why autonomy functions as a multiplier: if it reaches zero, the entire product is zero regardless of how much skill or capability is present. She also names motivation as the variable parents and teachers most often misuse, pushing past natural capacity because the child demonstrated what they were capable of once.Do Not Get in Front of Your Child | 00:55:03 Dr. Huffman closes with a message for parents whose children are in burnout. She names never assuming the child is not capable as the most important thing a parent can hold onto, and shares her own story as evidence: her parents could not have predicted she would become a neuropsychologist. She uses the phrase "do not get in front of your child" to mean: if they have something they want to do, let them fly. The child who is in their room with the lights off on Minecraft is telling you what they need. Meeting that need and staying regulated yourself is what moves them through burnout faster than fighting against it.Relevant ResourcesUnderstanding PDA — Free class with context on the nervous system disability framework and the dynamic, cumulative nature of activation Dr. Huffman builds on throughout this conversationBurnout — Free class with context for the red zone experience Dr. Huffman describes and the burnout recovery process for both children and parentsParadigm Shift Program — Our signature program where parenting for autonomy, safety, and connection is taught in fullUnlocking the PDA Brain by Dr. Jennifer Huffman — Dr. Huffman's book introducing the Neurodynamic Navigator System, written as a manual for understanding and supporting the PDA brainThe Able Center — Dr. Huffman's private neuropsychology practice in IllinoisThe Baby Fold — The Illinois nonprofit where Dr. Huffman serves as Vice President of Clinical Operations, specializing in trauma and higher support needs neurodivergent childrenBeyond Behaviors by Mona Delahooke — Mentioned by Dr. Huffman for understanding what is happening beneath the behavior in neurodivergent childrenDr. Huffman is also a board member of PDA North America.

Is it Time for a New Approach to Emotional Suffering? Advantages and Disadvantages of DSM Diagnoses Hosts: Kevin Cornelius, LMFT Dr. David Burns Episode Summary In this thought-provoking episode, Dr. David Burns and host Kevin Cornelius, LMFT explore a topic that shapes nearly every corner of modern mental health care: psychiatric diagnosis. For decades, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) has defined how clinicians diagnose, treat, and research emotional suffering. But what if many of these diagnostic categories don't represent distinct medical diseases? What if they are simply normal human emotions—like sadness, anxiety, or shame—occurring on a spectrum? Dr. Burns draws on decades of clinical experience, research, and insights from TEAM-CBT to question the assumptions behind psychiatric labeling. While diagnoses can sometimes reduce stigma or help people access care, they can also unintentionally shape identity, medicalize everyday emotional struggles, and distract from the real drivers of emotional pain. This episode offers a nuanced conversation about labels, measurement, therapy, and what actually helps people recover from depression and anxiety. In This Episode You'll Learn What the DSM is—and why it became so influential How the DSM functions as the "diagnostic bible" of psychiatry Why the system was originally designed for research standardization, not necessarily for everyday clinical treatment The difference between true mental disorders and normal emotional experiences Examples of genuine brain disorders such as schizophrenia and bipolar I disorder Why many DSM diagnoses describe normal emotions taken to an extreme How everyday struggles became medical diagnoses Shyness becoming "social anxiety disorder" Chronic worry becoming "generalized anxiety disorder" Why time-based thresholds (like "14 days of depression") can be arbitrary The unintended consequences of diagnostic labels How labels can reinforce feelings of shame or defectiveness Why diagnoses can sometimes lead to over-medicalization and medication-focused care Why measurement matters more than diagnosis in therapy Dr. Burns explains how simple mood scales can quickly assess a patient's emotional state Research showing that DSM diagnoses often add little predictive value for treatment outcomes A surprising research finding After lengthy diagnostic interviews, clinicians were only 3–5% accurate at estimating patients' feelings in the moment What this reveals about the limits of traditional diagnostic approaches Why focusing on thoughts may be the key According to cognitive research, negative thoughts drive emotional suffering Effective therapy focuses on identifying and transforming these thoughts Hope for people who feel defined by a diagnosis Why diagnoses do not determine your ability to recover How targeted cognitive techniques can sometimes produce rapid improvements—even within a single session Benefits of Diagnosis (According to Dr. Burns) While the episode critiques diagnostic labeling, the conversation also highlights situations where diagnoses can help: Access to insurance coverage Eligibility for disability or academic accommodations Temporary relief from self-blame Clear communication in research studies Key Takeaway Mental health diagnoses can sometimes be useful administrative tools—but they should never define who you are. Real healing often comes from understanding the specific thoughts, moments, and experiences that drive emotional pain, and learning practical methods to change them.
