Description
Discover the disturbing truths and hidden controversies of the mental health field as Dr. Teralyn and therapist Jen join us for an unflinching examination of the discipline's murky past. This episode peels back the curtain on the profession's earliest days, revealing how the shadows of eugenics and the asylum system continue to loom large over modern practices. As we dissect the legacy of figures like Freud and spotlight the stark omissions in our educational curriculum, we promise a journey that will not only inform but also provoke a critical re-evaluation of the mental health narrative.The annals of psychiatric care are marred by interventions that now seem barbaric, and our conversation takes a hard look at the life-threatening surgeries performed by Dr. Cotton, whose work was once praised. These grim tales serve as stark reminders of the necessity for ethical practices in mental health care. With Dr. Terri Lynn and therapist Jen as our guides, we reflect on the enduring implications of historical treatments and emphasize the need for empathy and patient-centered approaches in the wake of ego-driven agendas that have tainted our field's history.Wrapping up our episode, we probe the complexities of current psychiatric research and practice, challenging the integrity of studies that influence our understanding of treatments such as ECT and antidepressants. With a critical eye, we discuss the importance of transparency in psychiatric research and the honoring of patient experiences. By the end of this thought-provoking dialogue, listeners are urged to consider the implications of past practices on the present and to recognize the vital role of ethical standards in shaping the future of mental health care. --------------------------------------------------------HelloPlayground.com CLICK HERE to get 15% off Your First Order Are you tired of being gaslit and want to DEEP THROAT some more truth?
