We mark National Mental Health Awareness Month on this episode by tapping the expertise of Dr. Steve Strakowski, an internationally recognized expert in bipolar disorder, who has spent decades studying the neurobiology and treatment of mood conditions while pushing just as hard on the structural barriers that keep effective treatments out of reach for more than half the people who need them. In this conversation with Raise the Line from Elsevier host Michael Carrese, Dr. Strakowski explains why access, not science, is now the biggest obstacle to improving mental health outcomes. He also addresses the heavy toll society pays for underfunding mental health prevention and treatment programs. “The money is spent eventually, but in the most expensive places like emergency rooms and prisons, and there is the human cost of suffering and suicides." This important discussion also covers: The persistent problem of Black patients presenting with mania being misdiagnosed with schizophrenia;  Why he describes bipolar disorder as a reward-processing illness;  The emerging therapies he finds encouraging.

I'm back, hopefully for good this time. I've spent the last 7 months in therapy, a lot of therapy. I've learned a lot about how I show up in relationships, my flaws, missteps, short comings, whatever it is. But I've also discovered a lot of things I put up with due to it becoming my normal. Mental health is tricky and I don't have all the answers. Some days I feel like I'm Elle Woods, super intelligent, in a stable way. Other days I feel like Kanye West, super intelligent, in a not so stable way. I just know I'm on the right track. I hope whoever is listening can find comfort in knowing you're not alone in this life. Dating is hard. Mental health struggles are hard. Learning to be alone is hard.

It's 2:40am on the highway, driving home to Newcastle. No planning or preparation with this one — just the road and all my mind has been contending with. The same obsessions, the same questions. But tonight? It's gone up a gear.I get into the deep stuff, the thoughts that have followed me for years — why do bad things happen to good people? — and where that leads: loneliness, relationships, and life back in transport. The fact that we all are carrying our own burdens, fighting our own battles. While I grapple in real time the injustice of it all. When it seems the world is asleep, my mind goes to work.

Maternal mental health is a critical yet often misunderstood part of the postpartum experience, and this conversation shines light on an important topic many parents may not fully understand: perinatal and postnatal OCD. Amy is joined by Betty Flores, LCSW, PMH-C, and Justine Rae Murray, LCSW—two therapists who specialize in perinatal and postnatal mental health and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Betty and Justine share how their own postpartum experiences led them to pursue additional training in perinatal and postnatal mental health. Both women are passionate about helping parents understand their postpartum experiences, recognize that they are not alone, and access the support they need to feel better.Betty and Justine break down what OCD is and how it often involves intrusive thoughts or images that feel distressing and repetitive, followed by compulsive behaviors or mental rituals. While many parents experience the occasional intrusive thought and are able to move along with their day, Betty and Justine describe OCD as feeling “stuck” in the stickiness of intrusive thoughts, not able to move past the thought. Many moms feel ashamed or afraid to speak openly about intrusive thoughts, which can delay diagnosis and treatment. Betty and Justine also emphasize an important message: postpartum OCD is treatable with ERP therapy. Help is available, and you don't need to walk through this alone.If you have a loved one walking through perinatal or postnatal OCD, Betty and Justine encourage you to seek education, have compassion, and demonstrate patience. Understanding what OCD actually is, and offering a supportive, nonjudgmental presence, can make a powerful difference for someone working through intrusive thoughts and OCD. If you enjoyed listening to this episode, we would love it if you could share it to your Instagram stories and tag us, @perinatal_wellness, @gem.utah, and @expectingandempowered.

Repeated or aggressive antibiotic use disrupts gut microbes that regulate brain chemicals, which raises your risk of anxiety, low mood, poor sleep, and emotional instability Research shows that antibiotics lower acetylcholine, a key neurotransmitter that supports calm focus, memory, and stress tolerance, explaining why many people feel anxious, foggy, or irritable after a course Even a single round of antibiotics is linked to higher rates of anxiety and depression, and the risk rises further with repeated exposure, especially with drugs like penicillin, quinolones, and clindamycin Antibiotic-driven gut damage weakens the gut barrier, reduces short-chain fatty acids, and overstimulates the stress-response system, creating a full-body shift that pushes the brain toward anxiety and depressive patterns Early-life antibiotic exposure leaves long-term marks on mood, behavior, and stress resilience, meaning gut disruption during childhood or adolescence can shape mental health well into adulthood

In today's episode, I'm opening the first chapter of what I believe is the most important series I've ever created — a deep dive into progesterone and why it became the heart of my medical practice. For more than 20 years, I've watched this “simple, humble hormone” transform women's lives in ways most conventional medicine overlooks. What started in two small treatment rooms has grown into a 25,000 sq ft facility, and the core of our success comes down to understanding progesterone's impact on the female brain, stress response, and emotional resilience. In this episode, I break down: Why progesterone is far more than a reproductive hormone How it regulates the female stress response (amygdala, hippocampus, prefrontal cortex) Why anxiety, insomnia, irritability, and emotional overwhelm often map directly to progesterone decline Why so many women feel “unraveled” in their 40s — and why it's not their fault The science behind oral vs. sublingual progesterone (and why I use troches) How conventional medicine often misses the root cause The importance of physicians showing their work, their data, and their citations The lived stories and clinical outcomes that changed how I practice medicine If you've ever felt dismissed, unseen, or told that your anxiety or mood changes are “just stress,” this episode is for you. This is the beginning of a 7-part series where I break down the neurobiology, endocrinology, testing, dosing, delivery methods, breast health, perimenopause, and more.   Citations: Brinton, Roberta Diaz, et al. “Neurosteroids and Brain Function.” Steroids, vol. 81, 2014, pp. 61–78.

Host: Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Abram NanneyTopic: One day we're on top of the world, the next we're feeling low. It's a fundamental part of life. Your day may be off to a great start and then your coffee pot won't turn on. On your way to work you get caught in a traffic jam and you miss an important appointment. Ok, now your mood isn't so great. You begin to feel irritable and that sunny mood just went cloudy. But when does a "bad mood" become something more serious, like a mood disorder? Today, we're diving into the mood spectrum, exploring the differences between normal moodiness and clinical mood disordersYou can join the conversation by sending an email to: family@mpbonline.org.

Bipolar disorder and depression affect tens of millions globally, long treated as strictly brain-based illnesses, yet both consistently show high rates of insulin resistance and metabolic disturbances A 2025 Nature Neuroscience study found that pancreatic insulin release and hippocampal activity are linked through a circadian feedback loop. This suggests bipolar mood shifts arise from disrupted metabolism, not brain chemistry alone Earlier research in 2022 showed lithium stabilizes mood partly by restoring insulin signaling, while a clinical trial found metformin improved both insulin sensitivity and psychiatric symptoms in treatment-resistant bipolar depression patients Insulin resistance is extremely widespread, with around 40% of Americans affected, driven by refined sugars, seed oils, stress, sleep loss, and environmental exposures that disrupt the body's natural energy regulation Supporting insulin sensitivity involves stepwise changes, replacing damaged fats and ultraprocessed foods, introducing gut-friendly carbs and fibers gradually, managing stress, improving sleep, and staying active to stabilize both metabolic and mental health

Neurodiversity is a term that was recently coined in 1998 but the existence of differences in brains is as old as time. In this episode, we explore neurodiversity with Dr. Thomas Armstrong, author of The Power of Neurodiversity, Unleashing the Advantages of Your Neurodivergent Brain.  Dr. Armstrong explores 7 varieties of neurodiversity: Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, Dyslexia, Intellectual Disabilities, Anxiety Disorders, Mood Disorders and Schizophrenia. He explores the advantages and challenges for each diagnosis and he is working to change the stigmas around them.  As he believes, "just as we celebrate biodiversity and cultural diversity, we need to celebrate neurodiversity, or the differences between human brains."

Psychedelics like ketamine, psilocybin, and MDMA are emerging as promising treatments for mood disorders that don’t respond to standard care. What has research shown using these compounds as therapeutic tools? How can psychedelics work in the brain to alleviate mental health symptoms? We spoke with Janette Leal, MD, a board-certified psychiatrist, about the psychedelics currently being studied, their potential to safely and effectively ease symptoms in supervised settings, how they may help rewire thought patterns, common misconceptions about psychedelic-assisted therapy, and why working with a trained clinician is essential.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of "Mind Matters," we become cartographers of the mind, providing a clear and accessible map to the major categories of brain disorders. Avoiding overwhelming jargon, we guide you through four key territories. We explore Mood Disorders (like Depression and Bipolar Disorder) as disruptions in the brain's emotional "climate control." We examine Anxiety Disorders (like GAD and Panic Disorder) as a malfunction in the brain's "threat-detection system." We reframe Neurodevelopmental Disorders (like ADHD and Autism) as different "operating systems," not defects. Finally, we touch on Neurodegenerative Disorders (like Alzheimer's) to understand the process of brain cell deterioration. This episode is your essential primer for understanding the biological underpinnings and core experiences of these common conditions.

The mission is to keep girls in school and stop teenage marriages, because school isn't free in over 50 countries around the world and when parents have to make the difficult choices of feeding their kids or paying for school, food wins. And when the girls hit their teen years, they will often be married off so that someone else becomes responsible to feed them. Keeping girls in school instead creates a generational ripple effect, because an educated girl is more than twice as likely to ensure her on children are educated. Educating girls also grows the GDP of countries, when they get into the workforce. This is how together, we can change the world. Guests on this podcast are invited to donate to this important cause.

What's the problem with antibiotics anyway? On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared passionately answers this question. There is no antibiotic that doesn't cause harm. That's not to say they don't have their place, but as Jared explains, they are almost never necessary and almost always prescribed for common problems like UTI's and sinus infections. You'll learn why many infections don't need, and won't respond to antibiotics, the ramifications of even a single dose of antibiotics, and how antibiotic superbugs are a real problem. Jared delves into why antibiotics are overused, side effects of particularly dangerous forms, and the effects on mental health and the immune system. This show will be followed with one on antibiotic alternatives and ways to rebuild your microbiome after antibiotic exposure.Additional Information:#264: Emotional Vitality: Jen's Story Part 1 - From Addiction and Mental Illness to Vitality#266: Prescribing Poisons Part 2.

On today's podcast, I chat with Dr. Irina Diyankova, certified IFS therapist, IFS clinical consultant, and Lead Trainer with the IFS Institute. We explore the fascinating intersection of IFS and neurodivergence, a topic she knows intimately from both her lived and professional experience. We talk about time blindness, sensory sensitivities, what gets mistaken for trauma but might be hardwiring, and how IFS therapists can differentiate. We also get into self-accommodation, the limits of coping skills, and why healing through IFS is a lifelong journey. I loved my conversation with Irina and felt uplifted and inspired by her beautiful Self Energy. I'm excited to bring this episode to you.  ✨ Don't miss my extended video interview with Irina on The One Inside Substack. You'll also find a gentle, creative meditation Irina led designed especially for neurodiverse folks to connect with parts of their nervous system. Bring crayons and curiosity.   Key Takeaways: “Healing doesn't always bring rainbows and butterflies.” Irina talks about the moment she realized her nervous system challenges weren't just about unhealed trauma. How do you tell the difference between parts and hardwiring? Irina walks us through how she listens for what's left after unburdening and what that might mean. “Coping skills that work for others might not work for you—and that's not a failure.” Why traditional therapeutic approaches (like exposure therapy) can be harmful for neurodivergent clients—and what to do instead. “I have to accommodate myself.” Irina shares how self-acceptance and sensory regulation opened up a whole new window of tolerance. We also talk about Irina's upcoming book, Becoming an IFS Therapist: A Journey to One's Self, which offers practices and reflections for IFS therapists.   Mentioned In This Episode: The Science of Calm free online summit April 21 - May 4, 2025 “Applying IFS with autistic and ADHD adults through neurodiversity affirming lens” two-day workshop, May 30-31, 2025.
