The mental healthcare crisis in America demands our immediate attention. We're witnessing a disturbing pattern where individuals with documented histories of serious mental illness cycle through brief institutional stays, only to be released back into society without adequate support systems—often with devastating consequences.This episode tackles the uncomfortable truth about how our society handles mental illness. We explore the problematic "revolving door" approach where patients receive temporary care and medication before being released, regardless of their ability to function safely. The current system benefits pharmaceutical companies financially while failing both patients and communities.I break down the various levels of mental illness and why we need tailored approaches rather than one-size-fits-all solutions. The episode examines how profit motives have corrupted genuine care, with institutions pushing medication as the primary intervention without addressing underlying needs. When tragedy strikes, we express shock at learning about the perpetrator's "history of mental illness"—yet we continue the same failed approaches.Most importantly, this episode proposes concrete solutions: implementing lifelong monitoring and support for those with severe mental illness who cannot safely function independently. This isn't about returning to the problematic asylum model, but creating compassionate, effective systems that protect individuals and communities alike. The research is clear—our current approach isn't working, and we need fundamental change that prioritizes human dignity and public safety over profit and quick fixes.Send us a textWe want to hear from you, Introduce yourself the way you would like it aired, where your calling from State and City is fine as well as which Season, Podcast title and episode.

In this powerful episode of The One Dream Podcast, Leah Wilson is joined by Michael Connett, a seasoned attorney specializing in toxic tort law, and Scott Kiley, Associate Director of Local Advocacy at Stand for Health Freedom. Together, they shine a light on one of the most overlooked and controversial public health policies of our time: water fluoridation. Michael Connett shares firsthand insights from his recent landmark legal victory against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in which a federal court deemed fluoridation of public water an “unreasonable risk” to children's health. This is a groundbreaking step in holding regulatory agencies accountable and protecting families from harmful substances in the water supply. Scott Kiley adds a powerful perspective from the ground level - explaining how local communities are organizing, educating, and pushing back through legislation and grassroots advocacy to ensure informed consent in matters of public health.

Interview by Kris PetersAFI are coming!Formed in 1991 by California high school students Davey Havok (vocals) and Adam Carson (drums, backing vocals), AFI (short for A Fire Inside) began as a hardcore act. After gaining traction in the Bay Area scene and releasing their 1995 debut, Answer That and Stay Fashionable, the band signed to Nitro Records—the legendary incubator for some of punk's biggest names. In the ensuing years, AFI built a steady following through releases like 1997's Shut Your Mouth and Open Your Eyes and 1998's A Fire Inside EP, while they cemented their long-running line-up with the addition of bassist Hunter Burgan in 1997 and, finally, guitarist Jade Puget in 1998.With the release of their fourth studio album, 1999's Black Sails in the Sunset, AFI moved in a new direction, expanding beyond their hardcore roots and venturing into increasingly melodic territory—incorporating elements of gothic rock, horror punk, and even reflective balladry—creating a unique style that would soon make them international stars.In the years following, AFI found significant commercial success, breaking into the mainstream with Platinum-selling albums like 2003's Sing the Sorrow and 2006's Decemberunderground, which topped the Billboard 200. Along the way, the band scored a variety of hit singles, including Girl's Not Grey, Love Like Winter, Medicate, and Miss Murder, which landed atop Billboard's Alternative chart in 2006.Today, with 11 studio albums, 10 EPs, four MTV Video Music Awards, and one GRAMMY® nomination to their name, AFI shows no signs of slowing down, much to the delight of their multi-generational, global fanbase.HEAVY had the pleasure of speaking with drummer ADAM CARSON ahead of the tour.

Psychiatric medications are often prescribed at an alarming rate. What people don't know is that while these medications may provide short-term relief, they don't always address the root cause—especially in complex conditions like PANS and PANDAS. In many cases, these medications come with significant side effects. If we truly want lasting healing, we need to look beyond symptom management and focus on addressing the underlying factors that drive these conditions.By shifting our focus from masking symptoms to true healing, we can help children and families break free from the cycle of these conditions. In this episode, we'll talk more about why psychiatric medications are often a short-term solution rather than a true fix, the risks and side effects that parents need to be aware of, and why addressing the root cause is key to long-term recovery.Not sure where to start?

What makes people view porn? Some would say that many people view pornography because they want to escape feelings of emotional pain or stress. That sounds plausible… but is that biblical? As we continue The 10 Half-Truths Series, we'll ask the question: is porn addiction nothing more than a misguided pursuit of emotional relief?

Mental health, climate and workforce are at the core of a complex cluster of issues confronting lawmakers in this year. Legislators are under growing public pressure to address mental health challenges, implement climate policies and stabilize public pensions, while also dealing with workforce shortages. And those are just the top of the list of issues vying for attention. Even with a relatively healthy budget situation this year, it will still be a delicate balance.On this episode of the podcast, Alan Greenblatt, Jared Brey, Zina Hutton and Carl Smith return to complete the discussion of Governing's Issues to Watch. SHOW NOTES Here are the top takeaways from this episode:Mental Health Legislation and Funding Increased cases of mental illness, especially among youth, have prompted legislation in several states to regulate social media use and increase mental health education in schools. Efforts aim to move away from solely relying on policing for mental health crises, emphasizing instead earlier identification and support for mental health challenges before they escalate. The surge in mental health issues increases demand for more funding, but states are struggling to find novel and sustainable sources to meet the need. Public Health To counterbalance high post-pandemic attrition rates, public health agencies are employing community health workers, providing family members with incentives to provide in-home care and seeking expanded Medicare coverage. Unwinding pandemic-expanded coverage remains a priority. States are focusing on controlling health-care costs and curbing excesses in prescription drug pricing. Despite funding reductions, states continue to enhance state-level data systems and push for a potential national data system for better coordination during crises. Climate and Energy Policies States are now potential drivers for climate progress (despite federal challenges) after disappointing COP28 results that refused to phase out fossil fuels. The implementation of climate-related provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act has been slow even though they come with significant funding, especially that focused on hydrogen hubs, contingent on emissions and clean energy usage. On renewable energy, there is a growing recognition of the need for increased transmission capacity to utilize existing renewable energy resources effectively. International Affairs and State-Level China Policies There is growing hostility toward China reflected in state-level bans on Chinese-owned apps like TikTok and restrictions on Chinese land ownership. Local governments feel pressure to engage in international issues despite their limited jurisdiction, reflecting a broader trend to nationalize politics. Public-Sector Workforce and Pension Reforms Efforts to diversify the public-sector workforce continue by targeting Gen Z, adjusting job requirements for skill-based hiring and providing internships to bridge skill gaps. Some states grapple with underfunded pensions, leading to potential cuts impacting education and health care, while others explore riskier investment ventures to improve funding. States are focused on maintaining stability by stress-testing public pensions for potential financial risks and preparing for future uncertainties in pension funding.

In 1980, about 1 in 100 children in the US were taking psychiatric medications. Today, that number is 1 in 10. Even more shockingly, 1% of 3-year-olds in the US are taking psychiatric medications. Across the board, 1 in 5 Americans takes daily psychiatric medications, including antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, mood stabilizers, and sleeping pills — and these numbers continue to rise.  Presumably, humans haven't changed in the past 40 years, so why has the way we are treating their symptoms changed? Join us as Dr. David Cohen looks at psychoactive drugs and how their desirable and undesirable effects have been constructed for society through language, policy, attitudes, and social interactions. Today's two-part episode looks at how we got here, examines the possible implications for our society, and attempts to answer the question, “Is this the best medical treatment available?” Please note, this is part 2 of 2. The first episode is titled "Do We Medicate Normal Behaviors? With Dr. David Cohen (Part 1/2)" and is available on your favorite player.

For 20+ years our guest, Professor David Cohen, has been doing research on psychoactive drugs (prescribed, licit, and illicit) and their desirable and undesirable effects. He has also authored and co-authored over 120 articles and book chapters on these and other subjects. Recently he was one of the main experts interviewed in “Medicating Normal,” an in-depth documentary about the overuse and harmful impact of commonly prescribed psychiatric drugs. About 1 in 5 Americans takes daily psychiatric medications, including antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, mood stabilizers, and sleeping pills. Most people take them for months and years. While these medications can provide effective short-term relief, Dr. David estimates about 30–35% of regular users experience harm and/or are made worse by the drugs. But the real percentage could be higher because harms are not studied carefully. Driven by profit, pharmaceutical companies, which spend billions of dollars annually promoting psychiatric drugs, keep evading the serious study of the dangers and long-term harms these drugs can cause. And no other responsible agency is taking up the slack. Our host, Gabe Howard, is an award-winning writer and speaker who lives with bipolar disorder. He is the author of the popular book, "Mental Illness is an Asshole and other Observations," available from Amazon; signed copies are also available directly from the author. Gabe makes his home in the suburbs of Columbus, Ohio. He lives with his supportive wife, Kendall, and a Miniature Schnauzer dog that he never wanted, but now can't imagine life without.

America's mental health industry marches to the steady beat of Test, Diagnose, Medicate, Test, Diagnose, Medicate, Test... The tests are bogus, the diagnoses are bogus, and the medications are bogus (and harmful). Why states' attorney generals don't investigate these schlemiels for deceptive business practices is a mystery appropriate to these confused times.ParentGuru: Better Parenting Starts Here Thousands of stressed parents are finding their way to better parenting with the help of ParentGuru.Parenting With Love and Leadership Weekly Substack newsletter by Parenting Expert John Rosemond.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Do we just assume we can't help this pet?What if we asked the owner more in-depth questions? How have you tried giving it? What was going on with the pet when you tried oral medications? Can you focus on topical therapy for the infection? Based on a recent case I had, I wanted to present a real life solution on this week's episode of the podcast.

Medications are perceived as safe solutions, especially for various mental health conditions. Usually, when parents discover that their kids are struggling with their mental health, their primary solution is to have their kids take medications. Like two sides of a coin, medications both have its pros and cons. The cons, however, are not entirely acknowledged or made known to patients and parents. Research studies show that 100% of the time, your child will have a side effect from medications. These side effects are usually shown through your child's irritability, sleep problems, and restricted eating. So, despite many stimulants and psychostimulants, the brain is not going to work in its optimal condition. Thus, there's a need to open that up for discussion and help you understand the reasons and repercussions why you shouldn't medicate your child with ADHD, anxiety, or other mental health conditions.Psychostimulants and their side effectsBesides the trifecta, irritability, sleep problems, and restricted eating, there are many other side effects to medications, including psychosis, which nobody always wants to talk about and say is rare.These psychostimulants are not going to enhance brain functioning. It's not going to improve the behavior. Using ADD stimulant medication is like tying your foot on the gas panel and just saying “Go!” You don't have a lot of control.Often, parents get very frustrated because they're not coming in with new learning, and they don't know what they are doing differently, which usually causes side effects.100% of the time, some of these side effects are perceived as mild while some of them could be as severe as psychosis, cardiac problems, seizure, and other things.Also, some of these medications are contraindicated for other conditions, which is the second reason why you shouldn't medicate your kid with ADHD.What's the most common misdiagnosis?50% of the time when doing a QEEG brain map, the person's primary diagnosis is not ADD. In fact, they might not have an ADD brain at all. Rather, they have attention deficits that result from another primary condition. But what else could it be? It could be learning disabilities. Kids with dyslexia are always diagnosed with ADHD, and they have executive functioning issues. But it doesn't mean that they have ADD. They could have autism and other common ones, such as head injuries, birth traumas, or physical and emotional traumas. There are many possible things. There's really a high risk of being misdiagnosed especially during the pandemic, as people who have no history of focus problems think they have ADHD. Could it be stress? Could it be that you are working from home managing your kids? Maybe. There are many possible reasons.We don't want to jump to ADD medications as psychostimulants can hurt the brain.It's easy to get medication because people think it's safe and there's no possibility of harming the brain since it's washed out of the system. However, that's not entirely true. In fact, that's going to be our third reason why you shouldn't treat medication as a primary solution.Don't jump into ADD medications considering that ADD medications are psychostimulants that can hurt the brain. We know through research that it can create structural changes in the brain, and that these changes are associated with long term negative behaviors. Imagine being given medication by your trusted physician or a pediatrician who has very little training in children's mental health, and you're taking it assuming it's safe. You'll most likely have long-term damage in your brain. We know that many psychiatric medications with long-term usage shrinks the frontal lobes, and that's where it's supposed to be helping. So, they're not as safe as you...
