Egal zu welchem Anlass, in Deutschland wird gerne getrunken. Obwohl der Konsum seit Jahren langsam sinkt, liegen wir im internationalen Vergleich immer noch weit vorn. Schätzungen gehen davon aus, dass jährlich mehr als 40.000 Menschen in Deutschland an den Folgen ihres Alkoholkonsums vorzeitig sterben. Und dennoch gilt Alkoholtrinken immer noch als normal. Warum können - oder wollen - wir nicht auf diese Droge verzichten? Es nur mit dem Rausch, mit der kleinen Flucht aus dem Alltag zu erklären, wäre zu einfach.  Autorin Yasmin Appelhans ist dem Alkoholkonsum wissenschaftlich auf den Grund gegangen und hat dafür auch in der Evolutionsgeschichte gewühlt. Im Gespräch mit Host Lucie Kluth erzählt sie von ihren spannenden Erkenntnissen - unter anderem, warum unser Körper Alkohol relativ gut verarbeiten kann, was die forschungsrelevante "Drunken Monkey Hypothesis" damit zu tun hat und warum gerade Soziale Medien mitverantwortlich dafür sind, dass viele junge Menschen ihren Alkoholkonsum hinterfragen.

During times of injury or sickness, it is not unusual for people to turn to self-medication. The most common forms are food, alcohol and drugs - but this can be a slippery slope and end up in addiction, which as we all know can be very dangerous.   On this episode, MSSN Founder Dr Caroline Howe speaks with Zoe Cook, creator of the Pink Cloud app, which works to assist women to combat the use of alcohol addiction while also creating a community of supportive people available to help.   Pink Cloud: iOS and Android. Zoe also mentioned a screening tool - Pink Cloud would be appropriate for those with a score of 8 or more: Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test  Also during the interview, Zoe mentioned an app that will assist people with opiod addiction issues called TaperMate. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this insightful exploration of Step 1 from the Alcoholics Anonymous Big Book, Joe McDonald delves into the perils of self-medication. Reflecting on the passage, Joe highlights how easily individuals can be caught in the cycle of addiction, often exacerbated by attempts to manage symptoms with other substances like Valium or Ativan.Joe humorously recounts, “The doctor thought you may have had a little Valium deficiency. If you're a serious enough drinker, they'll treat your Valium deficiency every once in a while.” He points out how this approach, rather than alleviating the problem, often leads to quicker and more severe health declines, encapsulated in the phrase, “Better living through chemistry.”Joe's discussion sheds light on the broader issue within recovery communities where the focus sometimes shifts too narrowly, leading to debates about whether to talk about drugs or alcohol specifically. He emphasizes the importance of understanding that addiction, regardless of the substance, leads to the same destructive path.“We admitted we were powerless over alcohol—that our lives had become unmanageable.” This first step is crucial in recognizing the need for change and the dangers of self-medication.Join us as Joe McDonald reads and expands on the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, offering deeper understanding and practical advice for those on their recovery journey.

In this conversation, Von interviews hip-hop artist & friend Timothy Rhyme about Profound's (Timothy Rhyme & Gabriel Velasquez) latest single 'Heaven In My Mind'. They discuss the inspiration behind the song, the importance of maintaining a positive outlook, and the process of healing from past traumas. They also touch on the challenges of overcoming survival mode and the impact of unhealed wounds on future generations. The conversation emphasizes the value of self-reflection, gratitude, and the power of a clear mind."From the first drop of the chorus, this track is infectiously uplifting and encouraging. With the overwhelming chaos of the world we live in, Timothy Rhyme's lyrics remind us of the importance of a healthy mind and the rewards resilience can bring. We all have a past filled with trials and tribulations that we can look back on with pride and hope for the future. The steady progression of this song exemplifies how far a positive mindset can take you in pursuing your goals and learning to love life even in the mundane. Whether you are alone or with a crowd, this feel-good song will leave you eager to play it again and again." - ProfoundChapters (00:00) Introduction and Father's Day(02:08) The Creation of 'Heaven In My Mind'(04:58) Survival Mode and Switching it Off(06:38) The Impact of Drugs and Alcohol on Survival Mode(09:43) Breaking Generational Curses(15:24) The Importance of a Clear Mind and Gratitude(23:56) The Pitfalls of Hustle Culture(28:44) The Dangers of Self-Medication(32:36) The Power of Perspective and Gratitude(36:54) Conclusion and Reflections on the JourneyProfound Website:https://profound916.com/Profound IG:https://www.instagram.com/profound916/Follow Me on Social Media:Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thevoncastshow/Music Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/shibavon/Website: https://www.iamvon.net/

‘What's wrong with me Google?' Welcome to the latest episode of Join The Docs where we dive headfirst into the digital rabbit hole of health and hilarity. In this knee-slapping instalment, we're joined by Professor Jonathan Sackier, as a surgeon, and by his own admission, “always certain, sometimes right” and Doctor Nigel Guest, whose laugh is as infectious as the common cold but, thankfully, much more delightful.They reminisce about the days when "online" meant you were literally standing in a line, waiting to see the doctor.Is Google your friend? Our duo tackles the phenomenon of Dr. Google and how a simple online search can turn a mild headache into a self-diagnosed case of "I've only got two weeks to live!" They share tales of patients who, armed with a sprinkle of internet articles, fancied themselves as modern-day medical mavericks, only to realise that "DIY toenail surgery" isn't a recommended pastime.But it's not all fun and games; they also get serious, debunking vaccination myths and stress the importance of not falling for the old "I read it on the internet, so it must be true" routine. Jonathan explores the educational role of online videos, and the dangers of the wrong audience watching and acting upon the material. They also dissect the portrayal of medical conditions in the media, which  present a distorted view that's far from the truth.Professor Sackier and Doctor Guest urge their listeners to always seek the advice of real-life, flesh-and-blood professionals when it comes to medical matters. Because, as they wisely point out, the only thing you should be diagnosing yourself with online is a case of the giggles from listening to their podcast.So, strap on your stethoscopes and prepare for a dose of education and entertainment that's sure to raise your heart rate—in the best way possible!—--DISCLAIMER: The views and opinions expressed on Join the Docs are those of Dr. Nigel Guest, Jonathan Sackier and other people on our show.

“Self-medication, sometime called do-it-yourself (DIY) medicine, is a human behavior in which an individual uses a substance or any exogenous influence to self-administer treatment for physical or psychological conditions, for example headaches or fatigue. The substances most widely used in self-medication are over-the-counter drugs and dietary supplements, which are used to treat common health issues at home. These do not require a doctor's prescription to obtain and, in some countries, are available in supermarkets and convenience stores.[1] The field of psychology surrounding the use of psychoactive drugs is often specifically in relation to the use of recreational drugs, alcohol, comfort food, and other forms of behavior to alleviate symptoms of mental distress, stress and anxiety,[2] including mental illnesses or psychological trauma.[3][4] Such treatment may cause serious detriment to physical and mental health if motivated by addictive mechanisms.[5] In postsecondary (university and college) students, self-medication with "study drugs" such as Adderall, Ritalin, and Concerta has been widely reported and discussed in literature.[5] Products are marketed by manufacturers as useful for self-medication, sometimes on the basis of questionable evidence. Claims that nicotine has medicinal value have been used to market cigarettes as self-administered medicines. These claims have been criticized as inaccurate by independent researchers.[6][7] Unverified and unregulated third-party health claims are used to market dietary supplements.[8] Self-medication is often seen as gaining personal independence from established medicine,[9] and it can be seen as a human right, implicit in, or closely related to the right to refuse professional medical treatment.[10] Self-medication can cause unintentional self-harm.[11] Self-medication with antibiotics has been identified as one of the primary reasons for the evolution of antimicrobial resistance.[12] Sometimes self-medication or DIY medicine occurs because patients disagree with a doctor's interpretation of their condition,[13] to access experimental therapies that are not available to the public,[14][15] or because of legal bans on healthcare, as in the case of some transgender people[16] or women seeking self-induced abortion.[17] Other reasons for relying on DIY medical care is to avoid health care prices in the United States[18] and anarchist beliefs.[19]” -Wikipedia --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/support

Addiction and Self-Medication - Ep 596 by Dr. Brad Reedy

Stress owns us. It shapes how we do things, why we do things, where we go, what we do, and what we say.

After not doing much of anything for awhile, here's this overdue episode.

Tony has been leading a men's purity group for over the past 20 years. In group he recently shared a teaching with the men entitled, "Take It To God". To illustrate the ideas shared in this teaching Tony created the diagram that appears as the image attached to this episode. The image is color coded, and illustrates the 3 primary strategies available to us as we seek to process the hurt, pain, and trauma in our lives. (1) Self-Medication (2) Denial (3) Face it In this series Tony shares how counterprodcutive options one and two are, and how we must learn to face our pain, and then how to take our pain to God is we're going to be healthier and more functional people. Many men, if not most men, have used sex, porn, and their orgasm as a way to self-medicate the pain in their heart and life, and Tony helps us understand why we can no longer do this. There is a way that seem right, that leads to death. And there's a way that seems difficult, that leads to life. In this series we discover how the way of God, and the way of God's Kingdom is to journey through our pain rather than trying to avoid it, escape it, or anesthetize it. Welcome to episode 366!

In this week's episode I'm speaking with ex-military, fitness and sobriety coach Jon Wynn. Jon grew up in regional Australia and was exposed to drinking at a young age however he didn't start abusing alcohol and other drugs until he joined the military. After receiving a gunshot wound on tour in Afghanistan, he returned home with a sense of invincibility coupled with an insatiable urge to drown out the noise in his head. Struggling with PTSD, Jon felt as though he couldn't ask for help for fear of stigma and potentially losing his job. The greatest fight for his life began when Jon left the military and started his long road to recovery. Today, Jon is free from the nightmare of PTSD and is living a fulfilled life clean and sober. Jon shares his story in the hope that it can help remove the stigma and support other people struggling with mental health conditions. Some of the topics we cover in this conversation include: Rehab Intervention – 7:30 Coping Mechanisms – 12:40 Joining the Military – 19:23 The mental impact of being shot in battle – 23:48 Losing your identity – 28:40 Mental health stigmatisation – 33:08 Self-medicating PTSD – 38:05 The fight to live – 42:18 Fitness and recovery – 48:13 To see Jon's Behind The Smile photo, head to Ash's website.

He recalls his own journey of recovery and the moment of clarity that led him to turn his life around. Rob discusses the reality of sobriety and how it involves ongoing work and mindfulness. He explains that his own childhood experiences of rejection, neglect, isolation, and abandonment had hindered his emotional development and led to his self-medication with drugs and alcohol. The speaker also shares the traumatic events from his childhood, including being told his father wasn't his real dad and being molested at a young age. Despite these challenges, the speaker is committed to helping others navigate their own traumas and learn to love themselves instead of turning to self-medication.

It's possible for anyone to overcome, heal & reclaim their lives.
