Does Kundalini yoga have to be intense and activating? What if it could be trauma-conscious, deeply supportive, and even soothing? In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Katrina Marie—trauma survivor, author, and lead trainer in Uplifted's 200, 300, and Kundalini tracks—to explore how Kundalini yoga can be safely adapted for students with trauma and nervous system sensitivity. We talk about how to teach from a place of safety, how to create choice instead of pressure, and why your unique experience as a teacher is your gift. In this episode, we explore:

In this powerful returning episode of Unleashing Intuition Secrets, Michael Jaco welcomes intuitive transformational energy healer and author Sherri Divband for a wide-ranging discussion on healing, consciousness, and the shifting realities many are experiencing today. Sherri shares insights from her recent visit to Charleston's Angel Tree and discusses her five-year mission to launch Aramis Creative Learning Centers — a humanitarian-funded educational model built on animal-assisted learning, project-based education, and on-campus wellness centers utilizing frequency and energy-based healing modalities. Her vision focuses on supporting neurodivergent and anxious children while also awakening adults to new levels of awareness and responsibility. The conversation explores complex and timely themes, including illness and psychotic episodes she reports seeing in client sessions, the role of intention and sovereignty for protection, collective division tactics, and the importance of neutrality during times of uncertainty. Sherri and Michael dive into deeper metaphysical territory — discussing observer and guardian souls, multidimensional “pocket civilizations,” ascension symptoms such as short-term memory loss, recurring number sequences, and the concept of timeline jumps. The discussion centers on how consciousness, perception, and personal alignment may influence the realities individuals experience. Sherri also shares updates on upcoming events, fundraisers, and her new children's book focused on anxiety and emotional resilience. This episode blends spiritual insight, humanitarian vision, and multidimensional awareness — offering listeners a thought-provoking exploration of healing, sovereignty, and the evolving human experience.
In this episode, Dr. K discusses a growing concern in the mental health field: the potential for intensive AI use to trigger severe crises like psychosis, suicidality, and homicidality. He examines a chilling case study that suggests AI might act more like a drug than a simple tool, and he challenges the tech industry's claims regarding user safety. What to expect in this episode: The AI-Psychosis Connection: An analysis of a case study where a 26-year-old with no history of psychosis became hospitalized twice due to extensive chatbot use. AI as a "Digital Drug": Why AI-induced mental health symptoms often resolve immediately after stopping use, mirroring the effects of substances like synthetic marijuana. Challenging the "Vulnerability" Argument: A critical look at why tech leaders claim only "at-risk" people are affected—despite not actually measuring user risk factors or medical history. The Lack of Safety Regulation: Why AI companies aren't regulated by the FDA and the dangers of launching products without formal clinical trials for mental health impacts. The 20-Year Warning: Advice on why users need to be cautious about their digital habits today, as definitive scientific answers may take decades to arrive.

Are AI Chatbots Causing Psychosis? AI chatbots have become a helpful tool, but for some vulnerable people, interacting with these programs can be dangerous. The constant validation these chatbots provide can feed into users' delusions and cause psychosis.

Watch the latest episode of Stab in the Dark X starring Kelly Slater here https://stabmag.com/stabcinema/watch-... Any genuinely endearing conversation might hinge on seating Dane Reynolds next to someone improbable and letting the room do the work. Last week: the reigning world champ. This week: Kelly Slater, calling in from New Zealand. Four months post hip replacement, the greatest surfer of all time admits he can barely lift his knee into a car some days, but he insists the robo-hip already outperforms the real one, which had been dragging him through agony for the last four years. He'd been surfing through pain the whole time. Laird Hamilton personally rang to convince him to get on the operating table. A wellness check, from one absurdly fit old-boy to another. He also reveals that during Stab In The Dark X, his back seized up for four days straight. Bedridden and unable to walk without looking like a pretzel. But you can't keep a good goat down. He still paddled out, still tested six nearly identical boards, all while wrangling Snapper crowds and soft Gold Coast walls. Remarkably, Kelly admits to not having watched a single episode of SITD X. Not one. Just the Instagram clips. That's it. Is this the surf equivalent of Johnny Depp claiming he's never seen one of his own movies? Similar star power, frankly. On the topic of SITD, Kel talks candidly about the awkwardness of judging shapers while owning a board company himself, and why he never publicly burned a design, even when it deserved it. More interesting is his philosophy: shapers shouldn't try to guess what Kelly wants. He wants what they actually make, otherwise it's just pasteurised performance foam. From there, the gents get into lineup politics, snowboarding double blacks, and the simple economic reality that waves are limited, egos are not, hence grown men hissing over them. The ISA's new Olympic qualifying system gets a light public flogging. And yes, Kelly is a believer in the machine. Put Olympic surfing in a wave pool. Standardise it, industrialise it, flip the switch and hear the system roar.
We were sold a lie. Modern, high-potency THC is not the natural herb from the 1970s — it is a hyper-engineered substance triggering severe psychosis and brain damage in an entire generation. I sit down with board-certified psychiatrist Dr. Josef Witt-Doering to expose the terrifying realities of the modern cannabis industry. From THC concentrations rocketing past 90% to the devastating rise of synthetic weed, he dismantles the "medical marijuana" Trojan horse and reveals why emergency rooms are overflowing with cannabis-induced psychosis. If you think today's marijuana is safer than alcohol or hard drugs, you need to hear this urgent warning. We also discuss the general mental health crisis in this country, the dangers of misuse of antidepressants, and the need for a balanced and holistic approach to psychiatry.

My main takeawaysMain TakeawaysThe "Stargate" Collapse: The $500 billion partnership between OpenAI, SoftBank, and Oracle is being labeled "vaporware." Reports suggest the deal is in shambles due to internal power struggles and a lack of actual liquidity, with SoftBank allegedly scrambling for 90% debt financing.Market Volatility vs. Reality: There is a disconnect between market reactions and product performance. While Anthropic's claim that Claude can streamline COBOL code caused IBM's stock to drop 10%, critics argue the public is still in a "demo phase" of awe and hasn't realized the tech often fails to work as advertised.Reliability Concerns: High-profile failures are surfacing, such as Claude reportedly deleting a Meta researcher's entire Gmail history. This raises alarms as these same models are being positioned to manage critical infrastructure like banking and the IRS.Corporate Espionage: Anthropic has reported "industrial-scale distillation attacks" from Chinese labs (DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, MiniMax), claiming they used over 24,000 fraudulent accounts to "siphon" Claude's capabilities to train their own models.The "Theranos" Comparison: Critics are drawing parallels between current AI labs and failed startups like Theranos, arguing that the goal of reaching AGI via Large Language Models may be technically impossible, creating a "feedback loop delusion" to sustain venture capital investment.Strategic Shifts: OpenAI is pivoting toward traditional consulting giants (McKinsey, Accenture) to integrate its tech, while the community continues to debate the technical distinctions between generative AI and autonomous agents.@XFreeze@MrEwanMorrison@sterlingcrispin@dwlz

Caesar talks with Paul Hebert, founder of the AI Recovery Collective and author of Escaping the Spiral, for a raw and eye-opening deep dive into the hidden psychological dangers of modern AI.

Court documents reveal disturbing details about former Letcher County Sheriff Mickey Stines' mental state before he shot Judge Kevin Mullins in September 2024.According to defense filings containing testimony from sheriff's office staff and local attorneys, Stines exhibited alarming behavior in the week leading up to the shooting. Witnesses say he lost forty pounds in two weeks. He wasn't sleeping. He told a staffer that someone demanded he kill himself or "they" would murder his wife and daughter. He made her help put a bulletproof vest on his wife. He was calling family members who had been dead for years.Three days before the shooting, Stines gave a deposition in a civil lawsuit alleging his former deputy sexually exploited women inside Judge Mullins' chambers. Attorneys said Stines seemed agitated, took ten breaks, and said he was "having an episode." His attorney disclosed he had a neurological condition causing "issues" under stress.The day before the shooting, friends brought him to a doctor. He was diagnosed with acute stress and sent home. The next day, surveillance footage captured Stines shooting Mullins nine times in his chambers.The defense admits Stines pulled the trigger but claims he was "exhibiting paranoid and psychotic conduct" and "lacked the capacity to intend" what he did. A social worker evaluated him four days later and found him still in "an active state of psychosis." The insanity defense moves forward as the court weighs what everyone saw — and what nobody stopped.#MickeyStines #KevinMullins #LetcherCounty #CourthouseShooting #KentuckyCrime #TrueCrimeToday #SheriffShooting #MentalHealthDefense #Psychosis #TrueCrimeNewsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Bipin Subedi, MD, explores how health systems can better care for patients with severe mental illness who cycle between hospitals, homelessness, addiction, and the justice system. He argues that acute inpatient treatment, while essential, is rarely sufficient on its own. Preventing the revolving door of repeated hospitalizations requires psychiatry to extend beyond hospital walls and build integrated systems that follow patients into the community.Drawing on his leadership at NYU Bellevue and his background in forensic psychiatry, Dr. Subedi describes a model of care built on sustained relationships, flexibility, and continuity. He reflects on how programs like transitional housing and mobile post-discharge support can provide the “scaffolding” patients need when insight and executive function are impaired by psychosis. The conversation closes with practical guidance on strengthening medication adherence—particularly through thoughtful use of long-acting injectables—and on meeting patients where they are to advance more humane, effective care.Bipin Subedi, MD, is Associate Professor of Psychiatry at NYU Grossman School of Medicine and Chief of Psychiatry at NYU Bellevue Hospital. He is a forensic psychiatrist with prior leadership experience in New York City's jail system.▶️ Watch Insights on Psychiatry on YouTube01:36 Bellevue's Mission and Rising Clinical Complexity04:43 Extending Care Beyond the Hospital Walls05:15 Bridge to Home and Transitional Stabilization10:44 Forensic Psychiatry and the Justice System14:17 Psychosis and Impaired Insight15:53 Post-Discharge Scaffolding and Critical Time Intervention18:47 Preventing Relapse with Long-Acting Injectables22:36 Meeting Patients Where They AreThis episode is intended for psychiatrists, mental health clinicians, and health system leaders interested in serious mental illness and innovative models of integrated community care.This discussion is for educational purposes and does not substitute for individual clinical judgment or patient care.

Listener discretion is strongly advised.Andrea Yates remains one of the most disturbing—and misunderstood—cases in modern criminal history.This episode does not sensationalise her crimes. Instead, it examines postpartum psychosis, religious delusion, and the profound failures that preceded the deaths of her children. Crucially, we ask why Andrea Yates does not meet the criteria for psychopathy—and what her case teaches us about the dangers of oversimplification in true crime.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/psycho-killer-shocking-true-crime-stories--5005712/support.
Plenty to do on this Thursday evening, and we are going to start by playing a little catch up with an old friend we haven't had on in what seems like NINE years. I could be wrong but it's been a long while since Jordan Sather of @Destroying-the-Illusion jumped on with me, but tonight we'll talk about Cannabis Psychosis, the WHO-related stories from last night, James Van Der Beek's sad death, and more. In the second half I am crossing my fingers that Matt will show up, because I know he'll like this segment I have planned on banned Winter Olympic Sports, and other ridiculous extras.

A board-certified psychiatrist trained at one of the most prestigious psychiatric institutions in the world was fired for refusing to put a young woman on medication after the last prescription nearly killed her. Dr. Aruna Nammi left the system and built something radically different, combining functional medicine with 5,000-year-old Ayurvedic wisdom to reverse conditions psychiatry calls chronic and incurable. We go deep on why depression is a disconnection syndrome, the three root causes of all disease, what ancient traditions understood about psychosis that modern psychiatry ignores, and the shift in consciousness that may be unfolding on this planet right now.Trinergy Health Website Visit Center for Integrated Behavioral HealthDr. Roger McFillin / Radically Genuine WebsiteYouTube @RadicallyGenuineDr. Roger McFillin (@DrMcFillin) / XSubstack | Radically Genuine | Dr. Roger McFillinInstagram @radicallygenuineContact Radically GenuineConscious Clinician CollectivePLEASE SUPPORT OUR PARTNERS15% Off Pure Spectrum CBD (Code: RadicallyGenuine)10% off Lovetuner click here

Hi there! Taking inspiration from a playlist by music guru and MP3 blog pioneer Matthew Perpetua, Joe and Kari are exploring songs with the "crazed energy or manic intensity" of a good ol 80s coke psychosis. Lindsey Buckingham was definitely (ALLEGEDLY) on something when he decided to record "I Want You". Go West also certainly (ALLEGEDLY) had a line for "party favors" in the "Call Me" video budget. And Bobby Brown... him, Slimer and Vigo were for sure (ALLEGEDLY) doing some skiing on the set of Ghostbusters II. Joe and Kari break down all the tea around these wild tracks and more!Also, let's talk about one of the cheesiest, and worst, soundtrack songs of the 80s. No disassemble. Bye there!Send a text
Paranoia is one of the most misunderstood symptoms in bipolar disorder — and using the wrong word can delay the right treatment. Using real-life examples, this episode explains how psychosis in bipolar disorder is typically tied to mood episodes, how paranoid delusions form, and why people experiencing them often don't report symptoms. In this episode, Gabe Howard (who lives with bipolar disorder) and Dr. Nicole Washington (a board certified psychiatrist) break down what paranoia actually is, when it's actually anxiety or hypervigilance, and when it crosses into psychosis and delusional thinking. They explain why “being paranoid” isn't a diagnosis and how paranoid delusions fit under the psychosis umbrella. We answer common questions like: Is paranoia a stand-alone diagnosis in the DSM-5? When does healthy suspicion, anxiety, or hypervigilance get mislabeled as paranoia? Why does psychosis in bipolar disorder usually occur during manic or depressive episodes? What types of medications are commonly used to treat paranoia-related symptoms? How can loved ones spot symptoms the person may not recognize? If you've ever wondered whether paranoia is a typical worry, a trauma response, or something more serious, this episode brings clarity to a topic that's often confusing — and rarely explained well. Our host, Gabe Howard, is an award-winning podcast host, author, and sought-after suicide prevention and mental health speaker, but he wouldn't be any of those things today if he hadn't been committed to a psychiatric hospital in 2003.Gabe also hosts Healthline's Inside Mental Health podcast has appeared in numerous publications, including Bipolar magazine, WebMD, Newsweek, and the Stanford Online Medical Journal. He has appeared on all four major TV networks, ABC, NBC, CBS, and FOX. Among his many awards, he is the recipient of Mental Health America's Norman Guitry Award, received two Webby Honoree acknowledgements, and received an official resolution from the Governor of Ohio naming him an “Everyday Hero.” Gabe wrote the popular book, "Mental Illness is an Asshole and other Observations," available from Amazon; signed copies are available directly from the author with free swag included! To learn more about Gabe, or to book him for your next event, please visit his website, gabehoward.com. Our host, Dr. Nicole Washington, is a native of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where she attended Southern University and A&M College. After receiving her BS degree, she moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma to enroll in the Oklahoma State University College of Osteopathic Medicine. She completed a residency in psychiatry at the University of Oklahoma in Tulsa. Since completing her residency training, Dr. Nicole has spent most of her career caring for and being an advocate for those who are not typically consumers of mental health services, namely underserved communities, those with severe mental health conditions, and high performing professionals.

Katlyn Nemani, MD, explores how autoimmune and inflammatory brain disorders can present as first-episode psychosis—and why some patients diagnosed with schizophrenia may actually have a treatable immune-mediated illness. She explains the clinical features that should prompt suspicion for autoimmune psychosis, including subacute onset, subtle neurologic signs, and poor response to antipsychotics, even when standard imaging and antibody tests are unrevealing.Dr. Nemani also discusses the limits of current biomarkers, how to think clinically when diagnostic certainty is incomplete, and why early immunotherapy can dramatically alter outcomes. The conversation closes with a forward-looking discussion of emerging research suggesting that a meaningful subset of schizophrenia-like illness may ultimately be reclassified as autoimmune in origin.Katlyn Nemani, MD, is a Research Assistant Professor in the Departments of Psychiatry and Neurology at NYU Grossman School of Medicine and a graduate of NYU's combined Neurology-Psychiatry residency program.▶️ Watch Insights on Psychiatry on YouTube00:00 When Psychosis May Be an Autoimmune Disease01:18 Early Psychiatric Symptoms of Autoimmune Encephalitis02:47 Why Subtle Neurologic Clues Matter04:00 A Case of Rapidly Reversible Psychosis06:37 The Limits of Antibody Testing07:51 Why Early Treatment Changes Outcomes08:18 Rethinking the Heterogeneity of Schizophrenia09:31 How Common Is Autoimmune Contribution to Psychosis?10:48 Network-Level Brain Effects and Open Research QuestionsThis episode is intended for psychiatrists, neurologists, and other clinicians interested in psychosis, neuroinflammation, and complex diagnostic presentations at the psychiatry–neurology interface.This discussion is for educational purposes and does not substitute for individual clinical judgment or patient care.

On this episode of the CMAJ Podcast, Dr. Mojola Omole and Dr. Blair Bigham explore new evidence suggesting that rates of psychotic disorders are increasing in younger generations in Canada. Drawing on population-level data and broader psychiatric research, the episode examines how generational trends in psychosis intersect with substance use, social change, and the ongoing youth mental health crisis.Dr. Daniel Myran, a family physician and public health researcher at North York General Hospital, discusses findings from his CMAJ study, Incidence of psychotic disorders by birth cohort: a population-based cohort study in Ontario, Canada. He explains how overall rates of psychosis appear stable when populations are viewed as a whole, but mask a substantial rise among people born in the 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s. Dr. Myran outlines possible contributors, including substance exposure, changes in diagnostic practices, and social determinants, and emphasizes the implications for early intervention psychosis programs and frontline care.The conversation then widens with Dr. Dafna Kahana, an associate professor of psychiatry at the University of Toronto and staff psychiatrist at CAMH, who draws on her article in the Journal of Psychiatry and Neuroscience, Are the kids alright? Making sense of the current youth mental health crisis in Canada through heuristic and data. She unpacks how social media use, sleep disruption, physical inactivity, pandemic-related isolation, and exposure to global crises may interact to affect youth mental health, while cautioning against oversimplified explanations or single-factor solutions.For clinicians, the takeaway is twofold: emerging generational shifts in psychosis warrant attention in both primary care and mental health planning, and addressing youth mental health requires a coordinated, multi-pronged approach that spans early identification, family support, and system-level investment rather than reliance on any single intervention.Comments or questions?

In this NBN episode, host Hollay Ghadery speaks with poet Margo LaPierre about her poetry collection, Ajar (Guernica Editions, 2025). The poems in Ajar navigate the physical and psychological dangers of womanhood through the flattening lens of mood disorder. Psychosis isn't the opposite of reality—it's another perceptual system. If neurotypical thought measures the world in centimetres, this collection measures it in inches, gallons, amperes. Ajar celebrates radical recovery from gendered violence and psychotic paradigm shifts, approaching madness through prismatic inquiry. As time converges within us, we find new ways to heal and grow. From the emergency room to the pharmacy to the fertility clinic to the dis/comfort of home and memory, this collection humanizes bipolar psychosis.Note: These poems depict suicidality and some of the violences that worsen the risk. In Canada and the US, the suicide crisis helpline is 988 and it's available 24/7. Margo LaPierre is a writer and freelance literary editor. With multi-genre work published in The Ex-Puritan, CV2, Room, PRISM, and Arc, among others, she has won national awards for her poetry, fiction, and editing.

As tech companies attempt to deploy artificial intelligence into every possible facet of life–from education, to scheduling your calendar, to responding to emails, answering random questions, decoding DNA and even psycho therapy–we really have no idea how mass adoption of LLMs for basically every task will affect society at large. It's sort of like we're running a giant experiment on humanity with no control group and just the hope that immeasurably wealthy tech companies will steward in a brighter future. But we all know that cracks have been showing up in the AI facade. And one of those cracks is what psychologist have begun to term “AI Psychosis” – which is ….well…let's leave that for the guests on the show today.

We're going live to answer your questions about the Nick Reiner case. Rob and Michele Reiner are dead, their son Nick is charged with their murders, and you've had a lot to say. Why did celebrity attorney Alan Jackson walk away two weeks before arraignment? What does the schizophrenia diagnosis mean for a potential insanity defense — and does fleeing to a hotel and attempting to clean up contradict that? We're breaking down the argument at Conan O'Brien's Christmas party, the blood-soaked hotel room TMZ reported on, and Rob's own words about struggling to enforce tough love with his son. Seventeen rehab stints. A feature film they made together about Nick's addiction. A conservatorship reportedly in the works. This family tried everything — and the question everyone's asking is whether any of it could have changed the outcome. We're also talking about Jake and Romy Reiner, who lost both parents and their brother in a single night, and what they're facing as this case moves toward trial. No scripts, no filter — just real conversation about a case that's hit a nerve with parents, families, and anyone who's watched addiction and mental illness tear someone apart.

Therapy and companionship has become the #1 use case for AI, with millions worldwide sharing their innermost thoughts with AI systems — often things they wouldn't tell loved ones or human therapists. This mass experiment in human-computer interaction is already showing extremely concerning results: people are losing their grip on reality, leading to lost jobs, divorce, involuntary commitment to psychiatric wards, and in extreme cases, death by suicide.The highest profile examples of this phenomenon — what's being called "AI psychosis”— have made headlines across the media for months. But this isn't just about isolated edge cases. It's the emergence of an entirely new "attachment economy" designed to exploit our deepest psychological vulnerabilities on an unprecedented scale. Dr. Zak Stein has analyzed dozens of these cases, examining actual conversation transcripts and interviewing those affected. What he's uncovered reveals fundamental flaws in how AI systems interact with our attachment systems and capacity for human bonding, vulnerabilities we've never had to name before because technology has never been able to exploit them like this.In this episode, Zak helps us understand the psychological mechanisms behind AI psychosis, how conversations with chatbots transform into reality-warping experiences, and what this tells us about the profound risks of building technology that targets our most intimate psychological needs. If we're going to do something about this growing problem of AI related psychological harms, we're gonna need to understand the problem even more deeply. And in order to do that, we need more data. That's why Zak is working with researchers at the University of North Carolina to gather data on this growing mental health crisis. If you or a loved one have a story of AI-induced psychological harm to share, you can go to: AIHPRA.org. This site is not a support line. If you or someone you know is in distress, you can always call or text the national helpline in the US at 988 or your local emergency services RECOMMENDED MEDIA The website for the AI Psychological Harms Research CoalitionFurther reading on AI PscyhosisThe Atlantic article on LLM-ings outsourcing their thinking to AIFurther reading on David Sacks' comparison of AI psychosis to a “moral panic” RECOMMENDED YUA EPISODESHow OpenAI's ChatGPT Guided a Teen to His DeathPeople are Lonelier than Ever.

For decades, the narrative surrounding schizophrenia has focused almost exclusively on controlling symptoms. But with no cure, can someone actually get better? Recovery in the context of schizophrenia isn't about the absence of symptoms. It's a deeply personal process — one that centers on restoring hope, self-determination, and a meaningful life, even when hallucinations, delusions, and setbacks continue to exist. In this episode, host Rachel Star Withers, who lives openly with schizophrenia, and co-host Gabe Howard explore what recovery really means for people with serious mental illness. From clinical symptom remission and functional abilities to redefining purpose and identity, they unpack how recovery can look — and why it rarely fits the “back to normal” expectation held by loved ones and society. Later in the episode, Dr. Mark Ragins, who is a pioneer and leading voice in person-centered, recovery-based psychiatry, joins the conversation. Listener takeaways why people — not illness — should be at the center of treatment how recovery can include setbacks and still be real progress how the psychosis triangle explains both breakdown and healing how relationships can stabilize psychosis even when symptoms persist Listen now as this episode challenges outdated ideas of recovery, validating lived experience and showing how a meaningful life is possible with schizophrenia, symptoms and all. Our guest, Mark Ragins, MD, has been a psychiatrist for 40 years, working in community mental health centers, as the Medical Director for 27 years at the Mental Health America Village in Long Beach, California, an award-winning model of recovery-based mental health services, as the students' psychiatrist at Cal State Long Beach, and on street medicine teams working with homeless people on the streets throughout LA county. His book, “Journeys Beyond the Frontier: A Rebellious Guide to Psychosis and Other Extraordinary Experiences,” is based on true stories of working with some of the most underserved and difficult-to-engage people in our community. Countless people have come to experience the work being done at the Village firsthand and Mark has given hundreds of presentations and lectures to wide-ranging audiences nationally and internationally. He is one of the true pioneers and leaders of person-centered, recovery-based psychiatry. Many of his writings are posted online at markragins.com, including his short book A Road to Recovery. He was also featured in Steve Lopez's book The Soloist. Over the years, Mark has won a number of awards, including from the American Psychiatric Association, the Psychiatric Rehabilitation Association, NAMI, and Mental Health Advocacy Services.

Text a Message to the ShowToday we're talking about Crisis Intervention Teams and the work they do to free up police resources for other jobs. Our guest today is a CIT officer and instructor I met at a training I went to this last year. His name is JD Pettey and he's a thirty year officer with about a decade specifically working with co-responders (the community behavioral health liaisons) to help people in need because of addiction and mental health problems. JD has a tremendous amount of experience and you're going to want to catch what he says is valuable about having officers who specifically specialize in CIT areas.Music is by Alexander NakaradaHey Chaplain Podcast Episode 132Tags:CIT, Addiction, Army, Career, Co-Responders, Crisis, Mental Health, Police, Psychosis, Substance Abuse, Training, Veterans, Kansas City, Kansas, MissouriSupport the showThanks for Listening!

A strange sickness documented since the 1600s causes its victims to see the people around them as edible — and several who caught it killed and ate their own families.IN THIS EPISODE: The Wendigo is terrifying enough – with its backstory claiming it is the creation of a person who chose to become a cannibal, and ended up twisting up into the legendary monster. But that's just it – so far, it's only just a legend. We have no solid proof of its existence. But even more horrifying than the Wendigo is Wendigo Psychosis – something that is not a legend at all. (Wendigo Psychosis: When Humans Become Monsters) *** Lauretta Lyons was killed in her own home on June 9th, 1966. And now, so many decades later, authorities are still at a loss as to who committed the murder. (The 1966 Murder Rockford Police Failed: Witnesses Identified the Killer — But He Was Never Charged) *** What does it feel like to die? We obviously won't know personally until we die ourselves, as it's hard to talk to someone about their experience of dying if they are… well… dead. But Reverend J.T. Mann can describe it – as he was hanged… died… and then came back to life to tell the story of what happened to his soul while he was gone. (The Man Who Came Back From the Noose: Rev. J. T. Mann) *** We'll look at a few other legendary creatures and cryptids that have some interesting stories attached to them!
