For individuals living with schizophrenia, the world can be populated by voices, visions, or other sensory experiences that are intensely real yet imperceptible to others. These hallucinations, which are a defining feature of schizophrenia, are not mere figments of imagination but rather vivid, often distressing, and deeply influential aspects of their daily reality. Today's exploration aims to shed light on the phenomenon of hallucinations in schizophrenia, going beyond a diagnostic perspective to consider the actual experience, and the profound impact on an individual's sense of self and connection to the world around them. Guest host, Rachel Star Withers, a diagnosed schizophrenic, and guest Christopher Grant have a real, raw discussion about what experiencing schizophrenia hallucinations is like.Please Note: Our regular host, Gabe Howard, will be back next week! “Just because something is in the uncanny valley, it doesn't always mean it's terrifying or deserves demonization. I'm not blind to that fact that it's off-putting to people through the perspective of a neurotypical person. I'm glad to say today most of my hallucinations are pretty, I don't even want to say friendly. They're just content, like a neutral energy. But, for a long time, I was constantly in a state of like terror, like fight or flight terror when I'd experience it.” ~Christopher Grant aka XO RAD Magical Our guest, Christopher Grant, is a Mi'gmaw filmmaker from Pabineau First Nation, New Brunswick. Inspired by the intense absurdity of life and death, Chris animates to express the humour and terror of existence. He has worked with the NFB's Hothouse project, and his work has been exhibited at galleries, museums and film festivals internationally. He is also known for his role on TikTok as XORADMAGICAL, where he creates art and answers questions all relating to his experiences with schizophrenia in daily life. Our guest host, Rachel Star Withers, (www.rachelstarlive.com) is an entertainer, international speaker, video producer, and schizophrenic. She has appeared on MTV's Ridiculousness, TruTV, NBC's America's Got Talent, Marvel's Black Panther, TUBI's #shockfight, Goliath: Playing with Reality, and is the host of the Healthline podcast “Inside Schizophrenia”. She grew up seeing monsters, hearing people in the walls, and having intense urges to hurt herself. (Our regular host, Gabe Howard, will be back next week!)

When Christine was 9, her mother began having delusions that upended their family’s life. Her mother was eventually diagnosed with schizophrenia, but treatments had no effect. Nearly two decades later, after she started medication for cancer, her psychosis suddenly vanished. In the New Yorker, staff writer Rachel Aviv tells this remarkable story — and what it reveals about how schizophrenia is diagnosed and treated. The piece was selected as an Apple News Story of the Month. Aviv spoke with Apple News In Conversation host Shumita Basu about how evolving science is challenging long-held beliefs about schizophrenia and its causes.

What happens when someone living in and out of homelessness, battling schizophrenia, and cycling through hospitals and medications discovers ketogenic therapy?In this powerful interview, Dr. Bret Scher speaks with registered nutritional therapist Moira Newiss about one of the most remarkable published case reports to date.Despite overwhelming socioeconomic challenges, including periods of living in shelters and cooking on nothing more than a hot plate, this individual achieved sustained ketosis on a simple, affordable carnivore-based ketogenic diet.The result? His schizophrenia and psychosis went into remission.In the interview, Moira shares:The details of his journey from homelessness and hospitalization to stabilityThe simple, affordable foods he used to stay in ketosisThe barriers he faced, from relapse cycles to limited resourcesWhy this case matters for clinicians, researchers, and anyone seeking hope in the face of serious mental illnessThis case is more than a single success story, it challenges assumptions about what's possible with nutrition, even under the hardest circumstances. For someone who had been deeply embedded in psychiatric care in the UK and not improving on conventional treatment, ketogenic therapy offered a turning point.
THE SWIMMER (1968) We dive deep in to The Swimmer and discuss and analyze, maybe just a little bit the glorious film directed by Frank Perry, based on a screenplay by Eleanor Perry, from the 12 page short story by John Cheever. "Well-off ad man Ned Merrill (Burt Lancaster) is visiting a friend when he notices the abundance of backyard pools that populate their upscale suburb. Ned suddenly decides that he'd like to travel the eight miles back to his own home by simply swimming across every pool in town."If you're reading this I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support.

Host Rachel Star Withers, a diagnosed schizophrenic, and guest Christopher Grant have a real, raw discussion about what experiencing schizophrenia hallucinations is like. “By the time I was in university, I started hearing whispering in the vents of my apartment. Then it suddenly became more focused. Like Command, go take a walk right now or this will happen to you. It continued on and it intensified all the way until as recently as 2022 I've had a lot of ups and downs. I've had a lot of moments where I hit rock bottom personally and then had to find a way to swim back up from that.” — Christopher Grant “We would have classically called it spirits. My grandfather, before he died, when he heard that I was going through the symptoms of schizophrenia, he said, there's no word for it in Mi'kmaq. They just would have said, you're going through a test of the spirits. You're going on this experience where you have to, learn yourself, learn your strengths, learn your boundaries, and don't give up no matter how turbulent it gets.” — Christopher Grant Our Guest, Christopher Grant, is a Mi'gmaw filmmaker from Pabineau First Nation, New Brunswick.

Jerry Marzinsky returns—this time with Brian from Demon Erasers—to unpack the line between “voices,” demonic oppression, and modern mind-control narratives. We dig into what Jerry calls the patterns the voices run, why standard psych drugs don't fix root causes, how deliverance and the MACE Energy Method can break trauma loops, and why symbolism/sigils keep showing up in extreme cases. If you're curious about Nephilim, Ancient Angels, spiritual warfare, schizophrenia vs. spirits, and real-world deliverance stories, this one goes deep.Jerry Marzinsky• Website: jerrymarzinsky.com• X (Twitter): @JerryMarzinsky X (formerly Twitter)Brian — Demon Erasers• Website: demonerasers.com. demonerasers.com• YouTube: @demonerasers.

Tim Dillon jokes about schizophrenia in his Netflix special, "I'm Your Mother".
The psychedelic revolutionWill LSD, Psilocybin, MDMA, and Ketamine treatments live up to the hype?For decades, psychedelics were derided as dangerous recreational drugs; now many claim they have the potential to revolutionise the treatment of mental health. With hundreds of clinical trials now taking place, the psychedelic therapeutic market is predicted to be over ten billion within the decade. It has been widely thought that psychedelics are effective at treating mental health because of the way they change brain chemistry. But studies from King's College London and Johns Hopkins suggest this is an error, arguing that it's the psychedelic experience that aids mental wellbeing, not the physical brain changes.Should we stop focussing on brain chemistry as the solution to mental health? What is it about psychedelic experience that can aid mental well being and will psychedelics live up to their promise and usher in a mental health renaissance? Or is the hype bubble about to burst and should we look elsewhere for the silver bullet to the mental health crisis of our age?Matthew Johnson is Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioural Sciences at Johns Hopkins University. Shayla Love is a freelance reporter and former senior science writer at Vice News, focusing on psychedelics. Kevin Sabet is the founder of Smart Approaches to Marijuana, and he has been described as the "quarterback of the new anti-drug movement".Don't hesitate to email us at podcast@iai.tv with your thoughts or questions on the episode!To witness such debates live buy tickets for our upcoming festival: https://howthelightgetsin.org/festivals/And visit our website for many more articles, videos, and podcasts like this one: https://iai.tv/You can find everything we referenced here: https://linktr.ee/philosophyforourtimesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this explosive episode of Nephilim Death Squad, David Lee Corbo (The Raven) and Top Lobsta sit down with Premise — a Philly-based gold-certified music producer, writer, and truth seeker. With over 20 years in the industry, Premise exposes the dark spiritual underbelly of the music business: from satanic covens and ritual abuse, to hidden frequency manipulation and AI-driven “Voice of God” technology.The squad dives deep into how the entertainment industry serves as a battleground for powers and principalities, why music is more than just sound, and how ancient Babylonian rituals still echo in today's culture. They also explore the dangers of psychedelics, covert government weapons that mimic schizophrenia, and the role of Christ as the only true safeguard in a fallen world.Whether you're curious about the occult in hip hop, the inversion of spirituality in pop culture, or the reality of modern-day possession and ritual sacrifice, this episode will challenge everything you thought you knew about music, power, and the unseen war for human souls.
Send us a textEver found yourself in a heated political argument with a friend or family member and wondered why you're fighting so passionately for politicians who don't even know you exist? In this thought-provoking episode of Tales from the First Tee, I explore this peculiar human tendency and question whether we've become a society that needs coaching just to make it through holiday dinners without conflict.From the fairways of Charleston comes the hilarious true story of "Wi-Fi and Kris Kringle" – two polar opposite golfers united by their love of the game and spontaneous tee times. When a football bet between these friends leads to an unexpected forfeit, a simple betting satchel becomes both a global traveler and possibly a curse. You'll laugh as I recount how this satchel made its way to Paris for a Taylor Swift concert and mysteriously changed the fortunes of its new owner.I also dive into our collective tendency to take offense at everything, examining the evolution of various forms of "shaming" and questioning what triggered this heightened sensitivity. With some sobering statistics about America's weight gain over the past 50 years, I ask whether our changing food landscape and sedentary lifestyles have created unintended consequences that we're now too sensitive to discuss.The episode wraps up with "The Schizophrenia of Golf," where I explore the mental battle that happens on every swing. If you've ever talked to yourself on the course or wondered why your pre-shot routine falls apart under pressure, you'll recognize the "two entities" I describe fighting for control in every golfer's mind. It's a reminder that golf truly is "80% mental and 20% mental."Whether you're a golfer, a politics-weary American, or just someone who enjoys stories that make you think while making you laugh, this episode offers a fresh perspective on how we interact with each other and ourselves. Take a listen, and maybe next time you'll think twice before defending a politician who doesn't know your name or firing your "internal caddy" after a missed putt.Support the showSpotify Apple podcastsAmazon Music all other streaming services

What do you really know about schizophrenia? Guest host Rachel Star Withers — who lives with schizophrenia — takes us beyond the headlines and horror movies in this powerful, honest, and enlightening episode of Inside Mental Health. Joined by neuropsychologist and schizophrenia researcher Dr. Derin Cobia, Rachel explores what schizophrenia is, what it isn't, and how it silently shapes the lives of millions. They break down the real symptoms — including hallucinations, delusions, cognitive disruptions, and depression — and discuss why “positive” and “negative” symptoms are misleading terms. Rachel shares personal stories of psychosis, navigating daily life, and the lifesaving importance of support, while Dr. Cobia unpacks the science: from genetics to stigma to what the media consistently gets wrong. Whether you've never met someone with schizophrenia (spoiler: you have) or you're supporting a loved one, this episode replaces fear with empathy and misunderstanding with clarity. You'll come away informed, moved, and maybe even surprised. Key takeaways: the truth about schizophrenia's symptoms and causes why stigma is deadly — and how to dismantle it what support systems really make a difference how schizophrenia affects cognition, not just perception Hit play to get past the stereotypes and meet the human reality. Cold Open Transcript:Rachel Star Withers (guest host): I'm sure there's some listeners right now who are thinking, well, I don't have schizophrenia. No one close to me does. Why should I care? Dr. Derin Cobia: You know, schizophrenia, it indirectly affects everyone and it affects us economically, socially, and culturally. Even though somebody may not be dealing with somebody with schizophrenia, now, who's to say they won't in the future? And even if they don't, I would say just general education and awareness about it reduces this stigma. Our guest, Dr. Derin Cobia, is a neuropsychologist and neuroscientist with particular interest in utilizing neuroimaging techniques to study how changes in brain structure influence cognition and behavior. He is also a professor at Brigham Young University. Dr. Cobia's laboratory is focused on the implementation of computational anatomy tools to study neuropsychiatric diseases, particularly schizophrenia. His interests are in the clinical and biological heterogeneity that exists in schizophrenia by taking a cognitive neuroscience perspective. His work has involved linking cognitive and neurobiological characteristics to important clinical dimensions of the illness. Our guest host, Rachel Star Withers creates videos documenting her schizophrenia, ways to manage, and let others like her know they're not alone and can still live an amazing life. She has written “Lil Broken Star: Understanding Schizophrenia for Kids” and a tool for schizophrenics, “To See in the Dark: Hallucination and Delusion Journal.” Learn more at RachelStarLive.com.

What if schizophrenia and dementia weren't inevitable? What if we could intervene—before symptoms ever appear?In this episode of 'The Aging Well Podcast', we welcome Dr. Leonard Lado—psychiatrist, researcher, and author of a bold new unified model of schizophrenia. Drawing from decades of personal and professional experience, Dr. Lado outlines how our understanding of brain development, inflammation, and connectivity is converging into a model that could radically change how we prevent and treat severe mental illness.We also discuss the promise of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) as a non-invasive, neuroplasticity-boosting tool for early intervention—offering new hope for those at risk of both psychosis and cognitive decline.If you or someone you love has been affected by schizophrenia, dementia, or chronic stress-related brain changes, this is an episode that offers both science and hope.Topics include:• The six models of schizophrenia—and how they connect• Why dopamine isn't the full story• Inflammation and immune dysfunction in brain development• The role of TMS in rewiring and restoring the brain• What early intervention might look like for mental illness and dementia• Why neuroplasticity is more complex (and promising) than we thoughtDr. Leonard Lado is the Medical Director of the Lado Healing Institute and a leading voice in integrative psychiatry.Learn more at https://ladohealingpeople.com/Please, support The Aging Well Podcast by hitting the ‘like' button, subscribing/following the podcast, sharing with a friend, and….BUY the products you need to… age well from our trusted affiliates and support the mission of The Aging Well Podcast*.The Aging Well Podcast merchandise | Show how you are aging well | Use the promo code AGING WELL for free shipping on orders over $75 | https://theagingwellpodcast-shop.fourthwall.com/promo/AGINGWELLRebalance Health | products created by hormone health experts to lower cortisol, improve sleep, and minimize the impact of stress on the body and mind | Use promo code AGINGWELL for 20% discount at https://rebalancehealth.comProlon | The Fasting Mimicking Diet (FMD) is a revolutionary five-day nutrition program scientifically formulated to mimic the effects of a prolonged water fast while still allowing nourishment - supporting the benefits of fasting without the challenges and risks that come from water-only fasts. | For the best available discount always use this link: https://prolonlife.com/theagingwellpodcastThrive25—Your personal longevity advisor | https://www.thrive25.com/early-access?via=william-jeffreyL-Nutra Health | The medical division of L-Nutra, focused onhelping people manage and potentially reverse chronic health conditions, like type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, insulin resistance, and obesity, using personalized, lifestyle-based programs grounded in evidence, not prescriptions. | Use this link: https://l-nutrahealth.com/theagingwellpodcastFusionary Formulas | Combining Ayurvedic wisdom with Western science for optimal health support. | 15% off Code: AGINGWELL | https://fusionaryformulas.com/Jigsaw Health | Trusted supplements. “It's fun to feel good.” | Click the following link for 10% off: https://www.jigsawhealth.com/?rfsn=8710089.1dddcf3&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=8710089.1dddcf3Auro Wellness | Glutaryl—Antioxidant spray that delivers high doses of glutathione (“Master Antioxidant”) | 10% off Code: AGINGWELL at https://aurowellness.com/?ref=1957Dr Lewis Nutrition | Fight neurodegeneration and cognitive decline with Daily Brain Care by Dr Lewis Nutrition—a proven daily formula designed to protect and restore brain function. | 10% off code: AGINGWELL or use the link: https://drlewisnutrition.com/AGING WELLTruDiagnostic—Your source for epigenetic testing | 12% off Code: AGEWELL or use the link: https://shop.trudiagnostic.com/discount/AGEWELL*We receive commission on these purchases.

Send a Text to the Moms - please include your contact info if you want a response. thanks!A “Just Us” episode - inspired by listener inputMany listeners have asked us to do an episode about recovery that is “in the middle” - not miraculous, not superstar, but appreciating when “ordinary” is, in itself, a miracle.Along the way we also talk about President Trump's Executive Order on Homelessness - On July 24, the White House issued an Executive Order, “Ending Crime and Disorder on America's Streets,” which directs federal agencies to make it easier to involuntarily treat people with serious mental illnesses as part of a bid to address homelessness across the United States.Addressing Homelessness and Mental IllnessThe group discussed President Trump's executive order on addressing homelessness and mental illness, with Randye, Mindy, and Mimi expressing concerns about the approach. They agreed that while affordable housing is important, it alone is not enough to solve homelessness, and that involuntary treatment must be accompanied by a robust mental health system. Mindy highlighted the need for both conservative and liberal support to create a comprehensive continuum of care, while the group criticized the lack of funding for mental health services under the current administration. They shared personal stories of individuals with mental illness who were unable to access appropriate treatment due to system failures, emphasizing the urgent need for a balanced approach that combines housing, treatment, and support services.Challenges of Schizophrenia RecoveryThe group discussed the challenges faced by individuals with mental illness, particularly focusing on those who are not in active psychosis but still experience significant negative symptoms. The Moms explained that recovery does not mean complete recovery but rather being in a process of improvement, and highlighted the eight principal negative symptoms of schizophrenia, including apathy, blunted emotions, social withdrawal, and anhedonia. The group explored how negative symptoms affect daily life and recovery for their sons.Challenges of Schizophrenia's Negative SymptomsThe group discussed the challenges of managing schizophrenia, particularly focusing on negative symptoms and their impact on daily life. Mindy shared her experience with her son Jim, who struggles with negative symptoms such as lack of initiative and social withdrawal, leading to isolation and difficulty engaging in activities. Mimi shared her positive experience at Dr. Laitman's barbecue event with her son, emphasizing the value of community and understanding among families facing similar challenges. The hosts also mentioned President Trump's executive order on homelessness and encouraged listeners to create local support groups for individuals with mental health issues.Randye described her son's journey with schizophrenia, including periods of improvement followed by setbacks, and highlighted the importance of structure, community, and purpose and treatment in managing the condition. Both women emphasized the difficulty of explaining negative symptoms to others and the need for more support and understanding for individuals with schizophreniWant to know more?Join our facebook page Our websites:Randye KayeMindy Greiling Miriam (Mimi) Feldman

Can neuroscience finally catch up with the complexity of mental illness?Society faces a huge and growing burden from mental illness and impairment. Schizophrenia, for example, is a bigger socioeconomic burden than all cancers put together.We have medicines for some of these conditions, but typically they work well for some, not at all for many, and cause side-effects for others. One of medicine's greatest challenges has been identifying exactly which patients will benefit from a treatment before they even start their pills.In this episode I am joined by Jenny Barnett, neuroscientist and CEO of Monument Therapeutics, to explore one of the most pressing challenges in modern medicine: how to develop truly effective treatments for complex, multi-factorial mental health conditions like schizophrenia and cognitive impairment.Jenny shares the work they are doing on neuroscience drug development, revealing how Monument Therapeutics is using cognitive tests and precision psychiatry to target pharmaceutical treatments more effectively.She explains why the current "one-size-fits-all" model of psychiatric medication is failing patients, and how a diagnostic-therapeutic approach could transform lives and health systems alike.We discuss the state of funding for the research, clinical trial challenges and bottlenecks, and the urgent economic and social need for accessible mental health solutions.Don't miss this fascinating glimpse into the next frontier of neuroscience.“Schizophrenia costs society more than all cancers put together.” – Jenny Barnett You'll hear about:● How digital biomarkers are revolutionising psychiatric drug development and patient selection● Why current mental health medications only work for one-third of patients● The groundbreaking computer-based tests that rats and humans can both perform● How Monument Therapeutics is targeting cognitive impairment in schizophrenia patients● The staggering economic impact of mental health disorders on society● Why precision psychiatry could catch up neuroscience to cancer treatment advances Connect with Jenny BarnettLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenny-barnett-4b035826/ Website - https://monumenttx.com/ Connect with me:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/markdavison100/ If you need any lab equipment:Grant Instruments: https://www.grantinstruments.com/ Grant Instruments on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/grant-instruments-cambridge-ltd/
“Schizophrenia” is a scary word. A scary word that 1% of the population manages. Movies and TV shows have long created stigma around those with schizophrenia. But how do you stop fear? With knowledge. On a special bonus episode of the Inside Schizophrenia podcast, host Rachel Star Withers, a diagnosed schizophrenic, sits down with Dr. Derin Cobia to break down the symptoms of schizophrenia, current treatments, and what is on the horizon of schizophrenia research. Our guest, Dr. Derin Cobia, is a neuropsychologist and neuroscientist with particular interest in utilizing neuroimaging techniques to study how changes in brain structure influence cognition and behavior.

You can also listen to the episode here: https://thebraincandypodcast.com/episode/933Susie's Chili's is back after a two year closure due to fire, and she's finally got her baby back. And we learn the reason she is obsessed with the fast casual restaurant chain in the first place, and how it relates to her time on reality tv. We hear the follow-up on a man who jumped off a Disney cruise ship to save his daughter who fell off the boat, and we cheer on dads doing superhero shit. We learn about some people who, after decades of severe schizophrenia, have made complete recoveries after receiving treatment for a separate disease, which is showing doctors that there might be more at play than just a mental illness in the first place. And we learn the fascinating downsides to going back to "normal" after living with mental illness. Susie tells the story of a pediatrician who accidentally killed his toddler son, how he channeled his pain into saving lives, and why workaholism can be a powerful tool for people struggling with grief.DON'T MISS LIVE TRIVIA NIGHT: https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsFollow Susie on Instagram,it's a laugh a minute: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get $10 off your first month's subscription and free shipping when you go to https://nutrafol.com and enter the promo code BRAINCANDYThis episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

There is so much going on in this episode, we almost needed a playbook. First, we visit Arthur's Corner to find out he's feeling sick and he recently lost his kitten. After that we dig in the Death of Ricky C. McCormick, a man one psychiatrist diagnosed with having "a brick wall in his mind", We cover his mother, his potential father (we have no real idea who that might be) his unsuccessful attempts at becoming educated, his aunt, hjis cousin, his many girlfriends, his children, and his jobs. We discover his short stint as a drug mule and his violent bosses at the local BP station (Amoco at the time) and how he was found, deceased, on a road he could not get to with public transportation (which is the only way he travelled) with two strange sheets of paper in his pocket containing what might be a coded message in this local true crime episode of the Family Plot Podcast!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/family-plot--4670465/support.
Dale Walsh has faced—and transcended—one of the most formidable mental health challenges: schizophrenia. His journey from the depths of psychosis to a place of clarity and purpose informs every aspect of his work. Through his unique "inside-out" perspective, Dale coaches families of individuals living with serious mental illness, helping them bridge emotional gaps and navigate their daily challenges with empathy and strength.Dale creates a nonjudgmental space for those often referred to as the “forgotten victims of mental illness”—the family members, caregivers, and loved ones who struggle to maintain connection. His method, called LIVELOVE (Learn–Integrate–Validate–Explore / Listen–Observe–Value–Express), offers not only a roadmap for meaningful dialogue, but a chance to reclaim personal identity in the midst of caregiving fatigue.This conversation honors both the pain and resilience that shape mental health narratives—and shines a light on the power of coaching, compassion, and lived experience.Dale Walsh's SitesOfficial Website: http://www.dewlivelove.net/ Instagram: http://instagram.com/dale.walsh.14 Calendly: https://calendly.com/dalecoach55OTR sites:Podcast Website: https://bobadleman.wixsite.com/otrmentalhealthMail: OvertheRainbowbob@gmail.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/otrachievingmentalhealhfrInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/over_the_rainbow_achieving X: https://twitter.com/overtherain1bowYouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChEYTddPDUaiZbFliit1r5Q LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robert-adleman/This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podder - https://www.podderapp.com/privacy-policyPodtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrp
Welcome to MIA Radio. Today, we are pleased to have as our guest Jaakko Seikkula. Jaakko is a psychologist who helped develop the Open Dialogue practice at Keropudas Hospital in Tornio, Finland, in the 1990s, and he is the person who has conducted the research that told of remarkable longer-term outcomes with this form of care. For the past 15 years, he has developed and led training programs that have seen Open Dialogue practices adopted in 40 countries. He recently published a book titled, Why Dialogue Does Cure. In this interview, we discuss how Open Dialogue came to be, the research that shows its positive outcomes, how psychiatry has failed to learn from Open Dialogue practice and more. *** Thank you for being with us to listen to the podcast and read our articles this year.

This episode is important to hear, and not only because it discusses mental illness-but because it brings to light a voice, of one who has lived with this stigma since the age of 20, and thus, there is no byte-sized offering on tap this week-I think this episode should be heard in it's entirety. Dale is open and vulnerable this week sharing his story of mental illness and how he has suffered with schizophrenia since he was in his early 20's. He discusses how he has lived the last 20 years, the many hospitalizations, and the family and friends he has had who have looked after him and kept him safe. He is a poet and a writer, a funny man and a man who really wants to know himself. After the delusions of the last 50 years it appears he is going to be able to do just that. And please listen to the Easter Egg after the Outro because we do a bit of a deeper dive into the stigma of mental illness. For Dale's website, click here. For his Insta, click here.

Welcome back to the Medicine Girl Podcast. In Part 1 of my conversation with Jerry Marzinsky, we explored the voices—what they are, what they say, and why their messages repeat across patients, time, and geography with disturbing consistency. Jerry, a former licensed psychotherapist with over 35 years of experience in state hospitals, emergency rooms, and prisons, came to a bold conclusion after decades of listening to the so-called “hallucinations” of his patients: they weren't hallucinating at all. Now in Part 2, we go deeper. We talk about Voice-to-Skull (V2K) technology, government patents, and the very real possibility that some of what's being diagnosed as schizophrenia may be artificially induced. We explore how frequency, trauma, and suggestion may be used to manipulate thought, emotion, and behavior—sometimes in ways that appear indistinguishable from madness. Jerry and I still don't agree on everything—and that's the point. We're here to ask better questions. Whether these voices are spiritual parasites, technological interference, or something else entirely, one thing is clear: the psychiatric model isn't telling the full story. As for Jerry—he's not just a mental health whistleblower. He's a glider pilot, scuba diver, and researcher of both the physical and non-physical realms. He co-authored the book An Amazing Journey into the Psychotic Mind: Breaking the Spell of the Ivory Tower and has made it his life's mission to uncover what's really going on behind the label of “mental illness.” You can explore more of his work at JerryMarzinsky.com He's also on YouTube, Rumble, and BitChute under “Jerry Marzinsky” or “What's the Voices”.

Stephen Skolnick is a gut microbiome expert blogging at Eat Shit And Prosper. His most recent post argues that contra the psychiatric consensus, schizophrenia isn't genetic at all - it's caused by a gut microbe. He argues: Scientists think schizophrenia is genetic because it obviously runs in families But the twin concordance rates are pretty low - if your identical twin has schizophrenia, there's only about a 30%-40% chance that you get it too. Is that really what we would expect from a genetic disease? Also, scientists have looked for schizophrenia genes, and can only find about 1-2% as many as they were expecting. So maybe we should ask how a disease can run in families without being genetic. Gut microbiota provide an answer: most people “catch” their gut microbiome from their parents. Studies find that schizophrenics have very high levels of a gut bacterium called Ruminococcus gnavus. This bacterium secretes psychoactive chemicals. Constant exposure to these chemicals might be the cause of schizophrenia. I disagree with all of this. Going in order: https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/contra-skolnick-on-schizophrenia

Valerie Anne Smith's journey is a testament to resilience, transformation, and the power of dietary change in overcoming severe health challenges. Diagnosed with anorexia nervosa at 14, Valerie endured a harrowing 40-year battle with multiple mental health diagnoses, including schizoaffective disorder, clinical depression, anxiety, OCD, and body dysmorphia, compounded by extreme physical health issues. Despite numerous interventions, including inpatient treatment, psychiatric medications, and dietetic guidance that focused on high-carb, low-fat diets, her mental and physical health continued to deteriorate, reaching a critical point with a BMI of 11 and a weight under 80 lbs for most of her adult life. In 2018, at the brink of despair and after decades of suffering, Valerie's relentless pursuit of knowledge led her to explore the healing potential of a carnivore diet, focusing on nutrient-dense foods like beef, salt, and water. This radical dietary shift, initially met with personal resistance due to years of conditioned fear and restrictive eating habits, gradually quieted the debilitating mental turmoil and reversed her numerous physical ailments. Six years into her carnivore journey, Valerie has not only achieved complete remission from her mental and physical disorders but has also embraced a fulfilling life as a wife, mother, and health advocate. In this episode, Dr. Brian, Dr. Tro and Valerie talk about… (00:00) Intro (03:14) Valerie's history of struggling with mental illness, anorexia, and metabolic dysfunction (08:26) The horrible nutrition standards in eating disorder clinics and the nutrition lies plaguing our society in general (10:19) Valerie's upbringing and medical history (11:52) Valerie's frustrating experience with doctors trying to treat her many issues with meds (16:01) Body dysmorphia and the differences between fasting and starving (20:06) The horrible nutrition prescribed by hospitals and served to their patients (23:36) The incredible and heartbreaking story of how Valerie finally discovered the link between diet and mental health (37:36) The evolution of Valerie's diet as she began transitioning to carnivore and how her doctors reacted (45:45) Valerie's blood markers when she ate no meat and how she started to rebuild her body (51:03) How Valerie's family reacted to her new diet and lifestyle (53:08) The many health benefits that Valerie has experienced since becoming carnivore (57:05) Advice for those struggling with anorexia and mental disorders (01:01:31) Factors other than diet that have been HUGE for Valerie For more information, please see the links below.
