In this episode, host and podcast chair Sam sits down with Dr. David Puder, outpatient psychiatrist, psychotherapist, and creator of the Psychiatry and Psychotherapy podcast to make the case that therapeutic skills aren't optional for psychiatrists — they're essential.Dr. Puder traces his unlikely path into psychiatry, from nearly pursuing orthopedics to a pivotal stint in Haiti that rewired his priorities, and describes the residency mentor who first showed him the power of a single empathic encounter. From there, the conversation opens up into a wide-ranging exploration of what holistic care really looks like when you stop splitting "biology" from "psychology" and start treating the whole person, including a live exercise in recognizing and working with countertransference, practical advice on personal therapy, and how attachment patterns shape both your patients and your own clinical reactions.Tune in to Dr. Puder's podcast at psychiatrypodcast.com.--Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/torus/layers-of-lifeLicense code: 4BPPLFF6KL9N7G4Q

The Delphi murders appeal of Richard Allen reached oral argument on September 21, 2026, and one document from Westville Correctional Facility did more work in that courtroom than any other: the psychiatrist's April 14, 2023 order.Judges Nancy Vaidik, Elaine Brown, and Robert Altice heard Mark Leeman describe what that order records. A prison psychiatrist who had not seen Allen for months came to his cell, found a man who could not communicate and had feces coming out of his mouth, and wrote that he was seriously mentally ill and gravely disabled. To medicate him by force, the doctor had to document when the symptoms began, and he put that date at April 4. Over the following months, Allen received a standard course of Haldol injections plus an emergency dose.That matters because of a rule the state wrote for itself. Indiana's Department of Correction generally keeps seriously mentally ill prisoners out of restrictive housing, and caps exceptions at 30 days. Allen was there thirteen months. The state's answer at the hearing was that he wasn't classified as seriously mentally ill until the psychosis, and that the diagnosis he received, a brief psychotic disorder, by definition lasts less than 30 days.Judge Brown asked how that squares with a man who was constantly on suicide watch. Leeman's answer was that it can't be squared.The state's broader position is that the confessions were voluntary because no one interrogated Allen and the conditions were ordinary custody. Defense attorney Bob Motta joins me to explain why the defense says a cell can coerce as surely as a detective, and what the judges' questions signal about where they may land.Allen is serving 130 years for the murders of Abby Williams and Libby German. The Court of Appeals has not ruled, and a decision can be appealed to the state's highest court.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What if the way we think about mental health is actually making things worse?In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Sami Timimi, retired child and adolescent psychiatrist, psychotherapist, author, and longtime critic of the medicalization of human distress.And this conversation goes straight to the foundations.We talk about a question I've been asking for years: What happens when we take ordinary—and sometimes extraordinarily painful—human experiences and turn them into psychiatric diseases?Dr. Timimi argues that psychiatric diagnoses are not diagnoses in the medical sense at all. Unlike diabetes, cancer, or other medical conditions, psychiatric diagnoses have no objective biological marker that establishes the condition. Instead, they describe collections of behaviors and experiences—and then, far too often, we use the description as though it explains the person.That distinction matters.Because once we believe our diagnosis explains us, we may stop asking deeper questions: What happened to me? What am I responding to? What does my pain mean? What have I survived? What have I learned to believe? And how might my current struggles make sense in the context of my actual life?We also turn the same critical lens toward psychotherapy. Dr. Timimi challenges the increasingly technical model of therapy in which a diagnosis supposedly determines the treatment. Instead, we talk about therapy as fundamentally relational: one human being encountering another, without reducing that person to a pathology or assuming the therapist already knows what needs to be “fixed.”We discuss resilience, agency, suffering, meaning-making, the therapeutic relationship, and why understanding your pain as a reasonable human response may actually offer something the diagnostic model often cannot: Hope.One of my favorite ideas from this conversation is beautifully simple: stories of suffering are also stories of survival. There is always more to you than your pain. And there is always more to a human being than a diagnosis.

On this freewheeling, hard-hitting edition of The Adult in the Room, Victoria Taft takes on the lawless streets of Portland, high-profile true-crime psychology, and the absolute absurdity of modern subcultures: Portland's Two-Tiered "Just Us" System (TommyBoi Live): Fresh out of booking at the Multnomah County jail, conservative livestreamer Thomas Allen ("TommyBoi") joins Victoria to break down the misdemeanor assault, harassment, and disorderly conduct charges filed against him. Victoria reviews multiple camera angles showing an Antifa activist aggressively using a heavy plastic tote lid as a battering shield to block his movement outside an anti-ICE hearing. Victoria and Tommy expose the blatant double standard of the Multnomah County DA's office: aggressively prosecuting a conservative for defending his physical space while refusing for seven months to indict a leftist drive-by pellet gun shooter who targeted Tommy on camera. Psychiatrist Dr. Carole Lieberman on Patrick Clancy's 60 Minutes Interview: Renowned forensic psychiatrist Dr. Carole Lieberman ("The Terrorist Therapist") joins Victoria to evaluate Patrick Clancy's public television interview. Dr. Lieberman breaks down the systemic failures of Lindsay Clancy's psychiatric treaters (including Dr. Tufts), the clinical reality of command auditory hallucinations, and a controversial theory regarding the unconscious origins of the male voice Lindsay heard. Victoria strongly pushes back against juror misconduct following the 11-1 hung jury, where jurors admitted to treating a triple-infanticide trial as a public referendum on women's healthcare. Sen. Tommy Tuberville & The Aviation Furry Exposé: Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville delivered a Senate floor speech calling for the return of mental asylums, warning that commercial pilots and airline staff could be part of the "furry" fetish subculture. While corporate media outlets mocked Tuberville, Victoria investigates the actual existence of the Airline Furries Association International (ALPFA) and uncovers viral online communities of furry aerospace engineers, commercial pilots, and mechanics—sending Victoria into an uncontrollable on-air laughing fit. Global Moves & News Round-Up: A review of Donald Trump's address at the United Nations General Assembly putting the Iranian regime on blast, the Cuban delegation walkout, and newly unsealed details in the Jeffrey Epstein associate network.

What if some of the anxiety, depression, and mental health issues we experience aren't simply problems inside us? What if they're actually signals telling us something about the world around us? Psychiatrist and author Dr. Joanna Cheek joins the show to challenge the way we think about mental health, diagnosis, treatment, and self-care. Her argument isn't that mental health disorders aren't real. They're real, they can be debilitating, and they deserve professional treatment. But focusing only on the individual can cause us to miss external factors that could be a contributing factor. Focusing on the world or external circumstances raises complicated questions. For example, if anxiety can be a normal response to danger, when does it become an anxiety disorder? If low mood can be a signal that something in our environment isn't working, when does it become depression? And if treatment helps us feel better, does that mean the problem is solved? Listeners Will Learn: ·      Why self-care alone may not be enough to improve mental health ·      What “collective care” means and why it matters ·      How small acts of kindness and connection can benefit well-being ·      Why anxiety and low mood aren't automatically mental health disorders This episode isn't an argument against mental health treatment. It's about asking a bigger question: What if we're treating the symptoms without paying enough attention to what's causing them? Listen now for a fascinating conversation about what we misunderstand about mental health—and what we might be able to do about it. “Self-care isn't enough. We need to care for our collectives because this world will keep making us sick.” ~Dr. Joanna Cheek, Author of “It's Not You It's the World” Our guest, Joanna Cheek, MD, is a board-certified psychiatrist, psychotherapist trained in dozens of modalities, researcher, meditation teacher, journalist, and Clinical Professor at the University of British Columbia's Faculty of Medicine. She co-created the national-award-winning Mind Space collective, offering publicly-funded mental health workshops to teach effective mental health strategies through connection and care to tens of thousands of community members and physicians who, like us all, experience the mental health symptoms that arise from living in a disordered world. 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 is also the host of the "Inside Bipolar" podcast with Dr. Nicole Washington. Gabe makes his home in the suburbs of Columbus, Ohio.

Psychedelics are on the rise. Touted for their potential in serving mental illness, psychedelic use deserves thoughtful consideration. In this episode of Breaking Bread, Matt Kaufmann interviews Psychiatrist, Dr. Aaron Plattner on psychedelic use. What is it? How is it similar or different from traditional medicine? What effect does it have on the brain? How might Christian's think about it? Show notes:    What are psychedelics?  Psychedelics are substances that affect the brain in such a way that perception is altered. When under the influence, the user experiences an altered reality which affects mood, reasoning, and mental processing.  What area of the brain does it affect?  Psychedelics primarily affect the brain's serotonin system.  What is a "trip?"  A trip is what the altered reality experience is called.  Are psychedelics addictive?  Psychedelics are not considered addictive.  For what might practitioners be using psychedelics?  A popular use for psychedelics is with patients who are experiencing mental ill-health due to trauma.  What is the difference in how psychedelics are used in comparison to traditional medicine?  While traditional medicines are taken at regular episodes in seclusion. Psychedelics are used in very seldom and irregular episodes always in the presence of others.  What value might a "trip" have on a patient?  A psychedelic experience is thought to make the brain more flexible to process memories and construct new meaning. The hope is to forge new and healthy thought patterns.  Why is "set and setting" important?  The nature of a psychedelic experience is not predictable. It is unique to the person. Variables that affect the "trip" are the current circumstances of the patient as well as the setting that the patient is in when he/she takes the psychedelic. There is a role that a professional plays in administering the psychedelic.   What is a caution for psychedelic use?  A "bad trip" is when a psychedelic experience is itself traumatic and harmful.  What is the research status of psychedelic use?  Research is in the infancy stage. Further, reliable research methods are difficult to achieve because of the nature of psychedelic use and the inability to placebo the drug. Thus, research from the field is liable to have bias.  What should a Christian keep in mind as it regards psychedelic use?  Christians should hold a high view of the human mind and our faculty to think and believe. Turning these over to substance should be an area of prayer and wise discernment as believers remember God intends to grow us over time and with others. 

Dr. Wilner would love your feedback! Click here to send a text! Thanks!Many thanks to Jess Wright, psychiatrist and author of “Dance in a Madhouse.” Jess is a Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Louisville, where he sees patients, teaches, and does research. Jess joins several other psychiatrists featured on “The Art of Medicine:” Jesse Gold (Episode #130), Richard Berlin (Episode #99), Awais Aftab (Episode #85), Steve Moffic (Episode #78), and Ronald Pies (Episode #63). Now working part-time, Jess has more time for fiction writing. As a psychiatrist with decades of experience, he incorporates some of his patient experiences into his creative writing. During our 30-minute discussion, we discussed why Jess writes, how he writes, and his upcoming novels and memoir. We also addressed how the practice of psychiatry has changed since 1905, when his novel “Dance in a Madhouse” takes place. Jess truly enjoys the intellectual challenge of creative writing and believes it may be a strategy to stave off the intellectual stagnation that can come with retirement and aging!

Anxiety, rage, depression, 3am wake-ups, fear that freezes you in your tracks — psychiatrist Dr. Allie Sharma joins us this week to explain why perimenopause is a real window of mental health risk. We unpack how shifting and declining estrogen and progesterone levels drive mood, sleep, and anxiety changes (and why anxiety is often the first symptom, even before hot flashes), plus how hormone therapy, medication, testosterone, acupuncture, and CBT can help, often in combination. We close with a guided breathing and full body-scan exercise to help calm the nerves during this often emotionally-fraught time.Dr. Allie Sharma (Sonali Sharma, MD) is a Cornell-trained, board-certified adult psychiatrist who ran a private Manhattan practice for over a decade. She's currently Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer of Being Health, a Women's Health Advisor for menopause care startup Evernow, and an advisor to Kenneth Cole's Mental Health Coalition, following a role as Associate Medical Director at Cityblock Health. Her background spans emergency and student psychiatry at Columbia, mental health work with NYC's homeless population, and global public health leadership, including advising post-conflict countries and the World Health Organization (Libya, Ethiopia, mhGAP guidelines) and directing a ThriveNYC workforce initiative. She earned her MD from Weill Cornell, trained at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell and UCSF, and holds a master's from the London School of Economics.

Lindsay Clancy admitted to murdering her own 3 children. But the jury remained deadlocked, with 1 holdout, until the judge was forced to declare a mistrial. Did the jurors follow the law – and what happens next for Clancy? Massachusetts law complicates this case because it is different from most other states when it comes to an insanity defense. MA does not make the defendant prove she was insane. Once the defense puts in evidence of a mental disease or defect, the state must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that she was still criminally responsible: that she could both appreciate the wrongfulness of the killings and had the ability to control herself. Most states flip that burden onto the accused. This means jurors can accept that she murdered her children and still vote not guilty due to insanity, if the prosecution left any reasonable doubt. Dr. Daniel Amen, founder of Amen Clinics and a double board-certified psychiatrist, reviews Clancy's medication list – over a dozen psychiatric drugs filled in the four months before the killings, including quetiapine, diazepam, lorazepam, and zolpidem, several of them layered on top of one another – and her insanity defense. Attorney Christina Bobb, author of Defiant, explains why this case is unique because Massachusetts places the burden on the prosecution to prove criminal responsibility beyond a reasonable doubt rather than on the defendant to prove insanity – and news that Clancy's attorney is seeking a pardon from President Trump. Also joining: actress Bai Ling, known for The Crow, Star Wars: Episode III, Crank 2, and her Asian Oscar-winning performance in Dumplings, on her new music, her fashion line, and the book she is writing about Hollywood. 「 SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS 」 • BIOPRO - BioPro+® is a natural formula of growth factors and peptides that support how you look, feel & perform.

How do you make sense of an entire society or nation violating its values? Consider Germany in the 1930s, in which a whole nation seemed to embrace Nazism.It's tempting to say they're all monsters, but how could over 50 million people change in a few years? Not genetics. They must have been no more or less human in 1940 as 1920.It's tempting to say that monsters took over and changed them. Many people thought so. At the end of World War II, a psychiatrist, Douglas Kelley, was sent to evaluate the highest level Nazis who had been captured and were to be tried in the Nuremberg trials. He believed that these leaders must have differed from most people. He wanted to find that difference in order to help prevent people with whatever traits he found from repeating what they did. He was deeply troubled to find no meaningful difference between them and normal results on his tests.Jack El-Hai told Kelley's story in his book The Nazi and the Psychiatrist, including interacting directly with Herman Göring, at one point the second highest ranking Nazi. In our conversation, Jack tells the highlights of his book. I discuss the relevance to polluting and depleting today, where everyone is contributing, violating our own values, but contributing to much more suffering and death than even the Holocaust.We also talk about the movie Nuremberg based on the book, including its stars, Russell Crowe and Rami Malek.Jack's home pageHis book page Hosted on Acast.

“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.” —  Leonardo da Vinci Welcome to Episode 300!!

The murder trial of Lindsay Clancy has driven curiosity about postpartum psychosis, a rare mental health condition that can put parents and children at risk for violence and suicide. Dr. Mary Kimmel, a perinatal and reproductive psychiatrist and researcher at WashU Medicine, shares what families should know about the condition and other signs of mental distress. She also dispels misconceptions about the “baby blues,” and the biological, psychological and social factors that can affect the postpartum period.

Dr. Sasha Hamdani's new book, "Too Sensitive," aims to provide a science-backed, empathetic framework for understanding why some people experience high emotional sensitivity. The Kansas City psychiatrist joined KCUR's Up To Date on Tuesday.

In this repeat episode of Doc Talk, Chaston Ellis, D.O., Psychiatrist at Behavioral Health in Rapid City, speaks on Monument Health's efforts to increase access to psychiatric treatment and mental health care in the Black Hills. Dr. Ellis shares a bit about his background and motivations for pursuing psychiatry and gives perspective on how social media might be complicating anxiety disorders, while simultaneously helping to destigmatize mental health care. The most important message Dr. Ellis would like to share is that mental health care is now more accessible in the area than it has ever been before and that simply showing up and staying optimistic is one of the biggest steps you can take toward improvement.

Send us Fan MailDr. Fred Moss — 46-year mental health veteran, board-certified psychiatrist, and author of Welcome to Humanity: A Psychiatrist's Memoir and Case Against the Mental Health System — talks about why psychiatric diagnoses are, in his view, fundamentally made up, and why human connection heals in ways no medication can. Moss describes entering the field specifically because he disagreed with its direction, spending 37 years treating 30,000 patients while living in painful misalignment with the system around him, and eventually adopting the title "The UnDoctor" — dedicated to undiagnosing, unmedicating, and undoctrinating the people the system has failed. He argues that psychiatric labels only take hold when a patient agrees with them, that every human being is already having a spiritual experience whether they believe it or not, and closes with a powerful disclaimer: his message is specifically for the hundreds of millions of people who already sense the mental health system has not served them properly.whoisdrfred.comResources:https://auraverse.networkwww.claudiumurgan.comclaudiu@claudiumurgan.comhttps://spirituallyinspired.buzzsprout.comSubscribe for more videos! youtube.com/channel/UC6RlLkzUK_LdyRSV7DE6obQCome Home to Yourself Where healing becomes a holistic, embodied way of being via reflection, ritual and releaseListen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the show

Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" talks to psychiatrist Hannah Spier about the Lindsay Clancy trial and why she questions claims that postpartum psychosis caused Clancy to murder her three children; what Clancy's psychiatric history, 13 prescribed medications, and alleged command hallucinations reveal about the case; why Spier believes the planning surrounding the murders is inconsistent with psychosis; the viral "I Stand With Lindsay Clancy" movement and the women supporting her; how feminism and victimhood culture may be influencing psychiatry and attitudes toward female violence; disturbing social media trends involving mothers and their children; why some men are reportedly ending relationships with women who support Clancy; what young men should look for when choosing a partner and future mother of their children; how social media amplifies grievance culture; and much more.

Dr Gary Wynn is one of two psychiatrists who have just been approved to administer and prescribe MDMA in New Zealand - the first time it's been allowed in our history. We've got him on the line to chat about what comes next.

This week, Jen takes us inside the real story behind the Nuremberg trials and the strange psychological battle happening behind the courtroom doors. As the surviving leaders of Nazi Germany await judgment, American psychiatrist Douglas Kelley becomes fascinated by one prisoner in particular: Hermann Göring.From secret prison conversations and intelligence tests to Göring's extraordinary attempt to seize control of the courtroom itself, we look at the men tasked with answering an impossible question: was there something psychologically different about the people capable of doing this or was the answer much more frightening?A story about power, manipulation, evil, and what happens when the people who helped engineer a nightmare are finally forced to explain themselves.Part 2 is up on our Patreon now — listen here:The Creep Dive Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Lindsay Clancy was sitting across from her psychiatrist on January 23, 2023, one day before she killed her three children. Jennifer Coffindaffer, 25 years in the FBI and no stranger to the guilty camp, joins Tony Brueski to hold every argument for Lindsay's guilt up against what actually made it into the record. The paper trail is the starting point. Beyond that psychiatrist visit, Lindsay had two nurse practitioners, a therapist, two December calls to a suicide hotline, and a five-day inpatient stay at McLean Hospital that ended nineteen days before the killings. The planning argument leans on errands, timing, and exercise bands as proof she knew what she was doing, but Dr. Phillip Resnick, who examined both Lindsay and Andrea Yates, told this jury she was following a command voice. The theory that a search about treating a sociopath proves she was faking runs into Resnick's own testimony that the Commonwealth's testing found no evidence of faking, and that she downplayed her symptoms rather than exaggerated them. The staged-jump theory doesn't hold up against a woman who cut her own wrists, cut her own neck, is paralyzed for life, and remains on suicide watch at Tewksbury Hospital. Prosecutors have countered with Dr. Avram Mack, who interviewed Lindsay in April 2026, testified she could tell right from wrong, and told the jury she said "go to God" to her children during the killings, a statement that sits uneasily next to what she told a hospital chaplain a week later and Dr. Resnick months after that. Closings are next. Lindsay's plea is not guilty on three counts of murder, on the ground that she lacked criminal responsibility. Coffindaffer and Brueski ask how sick someone has to be before a jury calls it not responsible. Links & Legal Footer: Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Lindsay Clancy murder trial, unfolding in Plymouth Superior Court, moved into a rough patch for the prosecution today. Clancy, 34, of Duxbury, Massachusetts, is accused of strangling her three children — Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 7 months — with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. She's pleaded not guilty to three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation, and attorney Kevin Reddington is running an insanity defense centered on severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.On cross-examination, Reddington went straight at the credibility of the state's expert. Dr. Gregory Saathoff, a forensic psychiatrist with FBI Behavioral Analysis Unit ties, had testified Clancy understood right from wrong and was criminally responsible despite a bipolar II diagnosis. Under questioning, he acknowledged he wasn't retained until January or February of 2026, more than three years after the killings, and said he had no idea what his university employer was paid for his time on the case. Reddington also got him to acknowledge a pattern: his expert testimony history runs almost entirely for prosecutors, prisons, and universities — not for defendants.The most uncomfortable stretch came over homicidal ideation. Saathoff confirmed Clancy had told her husband and mother about it directly. But asked whether she'd raised dark, intrusive thoughts of suicide and homicidal ideation with doctors and others more broadly, he wouldn't agree that the homicidal ideation part reached that far — even while admitting she repeatedly sought help and told doctors about dark and suicidal thoughts. Nobody, it turns out, ever asked her the one question that might matter most: were these just thoughts, or voices.Clancy is paralyzed from the waist down after her own alleged suicide attempt. Husband Patrick Clancy, absent from the home that day, now lives in Manhattan. The trial continues.LinksJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Dr. Gregory Saathoff, a forensic psychiatrist who works with the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit, took the stand today in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy, the Duxbury, Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. Clancy faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation. She's pleaded not guilty, and her attorney, Kevin Reddington, is running an insanity defense built on severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Reddington spent cross-examination taking Saathoff's testimony apart piece by piece. Saathoff admitted that on the 911 call, he never actually heard Clancy say she tried to kill herself — just grunts. That detail came from Patrick Clancy's account instead. Same story with the pills: Saathoff said he got the information about Clancy allegedly crushing medication straight from Patrick — nothing was ever tested to confirm it. Reddington then asked the obvious follow-up nobody had an answer for: how did the empty pill bottles end up in a drawer? Saathoff also conceded that a person in psychosis can generate false memories and misremember events entirely — which doesn't exactly help a case built on secondhand recollection. He testified he never reached out to Clancy's mother himself, relying only on the DA's office telling him she wouldn't talk.Prosecutors argue Clancy understood what she was doing despite the mental-health claims. After the killings, she allegedly attempted suicide by jumping from a second-story window and is now paralyzed from the waist down. Husband Patrick Clancy, out running errands at the time, has since relocated to Manhattan. The trial continues in Plymouth Superior Court.LinksJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Lindsay Clancy, 34, of Duxbury, Massachusetts, is on trial for the murders of her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — allegedly strangled with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. Clancy faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation. She's pleaded not guilty, and her defense, led by attorney Kevin Reddington, is arguing she was in the grip of severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication when it happened.Today the prosecution's expert took the stand, and he didn't hedge. Dr. Gregory Saathoff, a forensic psychiatrist with the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit, testified that whatever voice Clancy said she heard never told her how to kill her children or where to do it — a detail the prosecution wants the jury sitting with. He described Clancy as gripped by a sense of "burdensomeness," convinced she couldn't return to work and that the family couldn't survive financially with her in it. He called her suicide attempt "very, very serious," pointing to the fact that she tried multiple methods as proof she meant it.Saathoff landed on a diagnosis — bipolar II — and said Clancy was suffering from a genuine mental disease at the time. But he drew a hard line after that: disease or not, he testified she understood right from wrong, and she was criminally responsible for what happened.That's the needle prosecutors are threading — real illness, real tragedy, but not legal insanity. After the killings, Clancy allegedly attempted suicide by jumping from a second-story window and is now paralyzed from the waist down. Husband Patrick Clancy was out running errands at the time and has since relocated to Manhattan.

Dr. Gregory Saathoff, a forensic psychiatrist who's consulted with the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit, spent today explaining what he found when he sat down with Lindsay Clancy — the Duxbury, Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children, 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan, with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. Clancy faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation. She's pleaded not guilty, and her attorney Kevin Reddington is building an insanity defense around severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Saathoff isn't new to this territory — he told the court he's evaluated and treated five to seven women in the prison system who killed their children, and co-authored a paper on postpartum psychosis back in the 1980s. He drew a line for jurors between psychosis, which he called a symptom rather than a standalone illness, and the diagnoses that can produce it. He also walked through the difference between Serious Mental Illness — schizophrenia, bipolar I — and Any Mental Illness, the broader category that includes things like anxiety and PTSD.The heart of his testimony: after interviewing Clancy over Zoom for roughly 11 hours across May and June 2026, Saathoff said she described an external voice that surfaced while making dinner, right after hanging up with Patrick Clancy — telling her this was her last chance, that she had to kill the kids and then herself. He testified the voice stopped once she strangled Callan, her youngest, but had already gone quiet before she attempted suicide. He flagged that as unusual, along with inconsistencies between her account and what collateral witnesses told him — including the decision to order Three V takeout, and Clancy allegedly steering her husband toward a specific drugstore to keep him out of the house longer.LinksJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

He explained to jurors that psychosis itself isn't a disease but a symptom, and distinguished Serious Mental Illness like schizophrenia and bipolar I from the broader Any Mental Illness category that covers things like anxiety disorder and PTSD.Then came the substance: Saathoff testified Clancy described an external voice that started while she was making the kids' dinner, right after a call with Patrick Clancy — telling her this was her last chance, that she had to kill the children and then herself. The voice, he said, stopped after she strangled Callan, her youngest — though it had already gone silent before her own suicide attempt. He called it unusual that this was the first time she'd ever heard it. He also noted inconsistencies between Clancy's account and collateral witness statements, pointing specifically to the Three V takeout order and Clancy allegedly asking her husband to run an errand to a particular drugstore.LinksJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

For twenty-five years, exorcists have been sending a New York psychiatrist the cases they can't explain, and they chose him because they expected him to say no.==========HOUR ONE: Different peoples build their identity around different facets of their culture: the Italians around their food, the Greeks around their architecture, America around expanding waistlines. The Isle of Man, however, has pinned its identity today on low tax rates, motorcycle races and, oh yes… mermaids and fairies. (Catching Mermaids on Man) *** Would you be willing to eat your meals off the chest of a corpse, in the process, taking on their sins as your own? That's the gruesome job of a sin eater – and there were people willing to do it even into twentieth-century. (Would You Become a Sin Eater?) *** Dr Richard Gallagher is a New York psychiatrist and a psychiatric professor. He has spent twenty-five years viewing exorcisms – and he says 'fallen angels' target the devout AND those who've meddled with the occult. He says it outright – being possessed by a demon can and does happen, and he has seen it all too often. (Psychiatrist Says Demonic Possession Is Real) *** UK homeowners believe their homes are haunted and want to rid themselves of them, while Americans don't care if a house is haunted so long as it has a swimming pool! (Ghostly Homes And Ghost-Loving Buyers)==========HOUR TWO: Investigators noted the hair on the alleged victim's arms was singed, and the skin burned. The grass where he claimed to have had the encounter was also scorched. Did this scoutmaster and the boys with him truly experience a real UFO sighting in 1952, or was it all a hoax? (The Scouts and the UFO) *** An atheist tells his story about being possessed by demons... or maybe he wasn't. (I Thought I Was Possessed By The Devil) *** Is the Thunderbird real or myth?  Most would say it is myth – or if it was real, it's now extinct. But then how do you explain sightings of the massive airborne creature as recently as 2018? (The Giant Thunderbird Lives) *** Sometimes, the darkness of night can hide frightening secrets. Especially if you are alone. (You'll Never Guess What Happened While You Were Asleep)==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: Robert Ressler came up against a lot of resistance, but his dedicated focus on the minds and motives of serial murderers created what we know today as criminal profiling. (The Man Who Created Criminal Profiling) *** An atheist tells his story about being possessed by demons... or maybe he wasn't.

Theoretical mathematician Charles T. Moore seeks help from psychiatrist Dr. Rawlings for an unusual problem—he claims his mathematical breakthrough has given him an uncontrollable ability that terrifies him.

Dr. Avram Mack, the psychiatrist prosecutors brought in to rebut the defense's insanity claim, spent Monday getting worked over by defense attorney Kevin Reddington in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy — the Duxbury, Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children, 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan, with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. Clancy faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation, has pleaded not guilty, and is mounting an insanity defense built on claims of severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Reddington opened by dredging up prior cases where courts found Mack didn't have the credentials to testify — not exactly a confidence builder before he even got to the substance. Then came the number nobody likes saying out loud in a courtroom: several hundred thousand dollars a year, Mack's take from expert testimony work. Reddington had him define confirmatory bias, then asked if he had it evaluating Clancy. Mack said no. He testified he evaluated Clancy in 2026 — three years after the killings — armed beforehand with defense records, DCF files, and medical history, across two doctors and roughly eight hours of interviews plus testing. He also noted that Drs. Heilbrun, Resnick, and Zeizel landed on bipolar 2, another doctor said bipolar 1, and that postpartum psychosis isn't even in the DSM, so he wouldn't use the term as a diagnosis.Prosecutors still need Mack's testimony to hold up despite the defense's mental-health claims. After the killings, Clancy allegedly attempted suicide by jumping from a second-story window, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was out running errands at the time and has since relocated to Manhattan.

The prosecution spent Monday's redirect trying to put Dr. Avram Mack back together after Kevin Reddington's cross-examination left him bruised in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy — the Duxbury, Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children, 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan, with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. Clancy faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation, has pleaded not guilty, and is mounting an insanity defense built on claims of severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Prosecutors used their redirect to walk Mack through something the defense hadn't dwelled on: that "postpartum onset" exists as a specifier within diagnoses like bipolar disorder and major depression, even if postpartum psychosis itself isn't a standalone DSM entry. It's a technical point, but it's the kind of technical point that can quietly undercut a defense theory without anyone raising their voice. Beyond that, the redirect stayed in the weeds — definitions of what "postpartum" actually covers clinically, more on Mack's qualifications, and other procedural cleanup. No bombshells here, just two sides fighting over the credibility of one witness inch by inch, Reddington working to keep the earlier damage intact, prosecutors working to patch it.It's not the most cinematic day of testimony, but it matters — juries remember whether an expert held up under pressure, and this was the prosecution's chance to make sure Mack's opinion still counts for something. After the killings, Clancy allegedly attempted suicide by jumping from a second-story window, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was out running errands at the time and has since relocated to Manhattan.

The murder trial of Lindsay Clancy is underway in Plymouth Superior Court, and the diagnoses on the table just multiplied. Clancy, 34, of Duxbury, Massachusetts, is charged with killing her three children — Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 7 months — allegedly strangling them with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. She then allegedly tried to take her own life by jumping from a second-story window, an injury that left her paralyzed from the waist down. She's pleaded not guilty to three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation. Her defense, led by Kevin Reddington, rests on an insanity claim built around severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.The prosecution's rebuttal witness had a different diagnosis in mind entirely. Dr. Avram Mack, a psychiatrist who reviewed Clancy's medical records and evaluated her in April 2026, told jurors that assessing someone's mental state requires looking at who they were at the time of the act itself. He described a patient who showed no interest in her hygiene, the hospital's food, or the other patients around her — though she did have visitors on occasion. Mack noted she's taking numerous psychiatric medications, all at low doses.His diagnosis: a major depressive episode within major depressive disorder. Not bipolar disorder — he testified he saw nothing in her records pointing to mania or hypomania. And notably, not postpartum psychosis either, which is the diagnosis the defense has built its entire case around.Patrick Clancy, her husband, was running errands when the killings happened and has since moved to Manhattan. The trial is expected to continue for several more weeks.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

It was a surprisingly short day in court, but it was a powerful one for the defense. Dr. Paul Zeizel told jurors that Lindsay Clancy was suffering from postpartum psychosis and that she had no appreciation for the wrongfulness of her act. Also, the judge in the case ruled a TikToker could not be called as a witness in the case and then abruptly and mysteriously ended court early, saying there was an “unforeseen circumstance” that they “did not see coming.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week we are re-releasing a Substack Live from our Breaker community! Mayim and Jonathan unpack their recent conversation with Dr. Paul Conti, psychiatrist and author of Trauma: The Invisible Epidemic, and the clinician who assessed Lady Gaga during her psychiatric crisis. His central argument: the lens through which you approach your own suffering may be the very thing keeping you stuck in it - and psychiatry needs to evolve to help you see that.Mayim breaks down one of Dr. Conti's most profound suggestions — that if a diagnosis becomes your sole identity, the brain will actually reinforce it. Every time you return to a problem as the primary fact of your existence, you deepen the groove that rumination is creating in your brain. He's offering a clinical framework for redirecting attention toward what is functioning, and why that reorientation affects real mental health improvement.More than half of the physical complaints that walk into a general practitioner's office originate in the mind not as fabrication, but as the body's honest response to unprocessed psychological overload. Mayim and Jonathan sit with what that actually means: your back pain, your gut issues, and your chronic fatigue may not be separate problems requiring separate specialists; they may be indications of a system under pressure that needs focused psychological care.They also explore:- Why internet self-diagnosis and social media labeling can be dangerous, and what the actual clinical criteria are for knowing when something needs professional attention versus when you're just wired differently- The case that many mental health challenges are spiritual in nature, and what it means that our healthcare system lacks a framework for treating them that way- How chronic background stress erodes your capacity to handle normal life, and why you often can't see it happening, because your baseline keeps shifting without your awareness- Practical takeaways from the recent episode with Dr. Stacy Sims, Exercise Physiologist and Nutrition Scientist, on women's health, protein timing, and what actually happened when Jonathan snuck a bolus of protein into Mayim's bedtime routineFollow us on Substack for Exclusive Bonus Content: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bialikbreakdown.substack.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BialikBreakdown.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube.com/mayimbialik⁠⁠⁠See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
