This idea of “over-medicalization” can be applied to areas other than psychiatry. The general public’s reliance on “medicine” and the faith in doctors’ ability to “cure” anything is disheartening.
They don't want cures. Not in the US anyway. They want a person to be on a medication &/or treatment for life because that's how they maximize profit. In fact, I would go as far as to say they want people sick and intentionally make us so for profit.
Yeah it's absolutely absurd that people look to doctors like they would a priest or God. For a lot of people their diagnosis is their religion, it's quite sick tbh.
It’s my Uncle’s birthday today, Johnny or (Terry) as some knew Him or the Toorak cowboy. He was hit by a truck and he had to learn to eat and talk all over again. He ended up in juvenile detention and My Mum and a friend went to visit Him. He and other children were chained to a tree. This was in Australia in the late sixties or early seventies. RIP Uncle Johnny
Outstanding interview! We need many more health professionals like Dr. Josef and Dr. McFillin to shout all of this from the rooftops! Thank you for all you're doing.
It was such a wonderful conversation, and thank you so much for introducing me to Dr. McFillin! You are both outstanding health professionals, and I support your ethics and work in the field. Please, both of you, keep up your much-needed work! 👏
How about facilities like Straight Inc. I’ve had more damage done to me as a child at the hands of adults forcing very harmful things on me at the insistence that it was to “help” me. Come to think of it, that applies to me as an adult as well. Welcome Lexapro :(
What kind of process did they implement to make sure that what they were being told avout you by your parents or whomever committed you was even accurate, and that they weren't the problem? Or did your primary caregivers even know what you were being subjected to? I've heard of places like this for girls where they would break you down by limiting your caloric intake.
This discussion was so interesting, uplifting, depressing and long over due. I hope Dr. McFillin returns for another discussion with you. Perhaps, you would be interested in asking Paula J. Caplan, Phd. for an interview on your channel.
Death by Despair I wondered if that was possible. For the past 3 years I’ve felt a despair whose only remedy is being able to share happiness together on a regular basis. Without that my heart is suffocating
Roger may come across as quite, um... uninhibited in his criticism of psychiatric practices if you follow him on X. But if you're going to say things like they are, and the whole paradigm is rotten, that's what you're going to get. Keep it up guys.
6:25 (or so). This is part of the problem, not the solution. You have to go back to the core, the origin, the entire design of the mind and the psychosocial ecology it exists. Nothing about these people, their beliefs, their manner of thinking, their perception, or their behavior is rational sane or even aligned with superficial (purported) social norms and mores. Yet people doublethink. They fall for language tricks. They submit to the abuser. They go along to get along. They comaprtmentalize. They reframe. They do whatever is necessary to feel seen, feel safe in the group, feel that they know, and to continue mindlessly doing as they are told. That's what a person is. If people can't hear this or engage with it, it's doomed. These are infantile dynamics at work in adults, mommy-daddy. Just bigger! Now everything is a diffuse mommy-daddy! It disgusts me. None of you tell the truth. And even if you did, the average person is so braindead it wouldn't make any difference.
That may not be so bad. It calms children down, teaches them to control themselves and focus. Tea form of this has been normal parenting and education for centuries.
See my BOOK!!! The Pressed Ant Wow how insane am I Let’s teach kids how to talk about sad feelings and stop depression before it gets triggered for life!
I agree with everything you do, but Dr. Roger is only trying to sell his brand. Now he's talking about starting a non-profit, just a means to get money. You should really screen your guests. Most of them are honest, but not this guy. People hate him for his sleaziness. Even while he talks, he plugs his brand. He's arrogant, and self-centred. As a psychiatrist, you must see it. Unless you’re one of them trying to make a buck off the most vulnerable people in society. I refused to be on Roger's show because he is only after fame and money.

@@peacenrhyme That’s EXACTLY what it’s like!

It's a very sick world that inflicts harm and injury on children that need care and guidance. 😞
What kind of process did they implement to make sure that what they were being told avout you by your parents or whomever committed you was even accurate, and that they weren't the problem?

They did not ask us (the children) what we were subjected to in the home
The novelists have a much better understanding of human distress than almost any psychiatrist.
Thank you both from the bottom of my heart for the vitally important work being done in this area and I'll write more when I'm able to do so. ❤

Or you know. You could be a real parent and teach them this without drugging them.
Screaming, yelling, manipulating to control people plus avoidant behaviors.. that’s me
See my BOOK!!!
