It's a Sin reviews: • DOCTOR REACTS TO IT'S ...
I LOVE Ted Lasso. This Doctor Reacts video is watching clips from the start of season 2. The whole season is so positive towards mental health, particularly towards anxiety and panic attacks and I found it so powerful, so I'm looking forward to watching it with you and disentangling fact from fiction.
On this video, I talk about the benefits of therapy, insight versus change, acute stress, PTSD, defense mechanisms, avoidant mechanisms and much more.

    To be fair we found out in the most recent episode that his former marriage therapist is now dating his ex wife. So based on that I would say he has a very good reason why he doesn't trust therapists.

    Great video, hope you keep doing Ted Lasso! I just love how it portrays kindness and understanding in a positive light and not as a weakness and how characters support each other throughout, and doesn't shy away from mental health issues at the same time.

This show has been such a comfort on some of my most difficult days, and the inclusion of not only discussions around mental health and recovery, but the range of issues that they've touched on has made it such a lovely and cathartic watch for me. Thank you so much for covering it - I was so excited to see this video in my sub list ❤

    Did anyone else catch on what Ted said about his old couples therapist - that his wife had "been going to [them] for a while," and then he joined the sessions for couples therapy later on? With the same therapist? I haven't watched the show so don't know if it's addressed, but I certainly understand why Ted would feel judged in that situation. The therapist already having an existing relationship with his partner when he's being brought in would probably be uncomfortable at the very least.

    I used to have a fear of dogs because I was bitten on the nose as a kid and so was terrified of being bitten again leading me to avoid all dogs. I grew up with a dog who had to be put down when I was 10 months old and then developed a huge fear after that bite because of that connection my brain made between dogs and being bitten. I love dogs now and am totally over my fear and have a dog of my own and love all dogs, no matter the size or breed, but it definitely took some time to break that connection in my brain.

    The origins of many phobias remain unknown, or at least not always the result of classical conditioning or operant conditioning. However, PTSD here as meets the DSM criteria. Great explanation of therapy - in ACT, the aim is "not to feel better, but to get better at feelings". Video Informative as ever.

    I am an American psychiatric nurse with my own mental health history. I had a significant "psychiatric crisis" breakdown in 2020 and was misdiagnosed with bipolar r/o borderline PD at 55 years old by an incompetent young psychiatrist. My life has been a long hard rode since then (4 years) - trying to prove to myself and everyone else that I'm not crazy. I feel incredibly betrayed by the system that was supposed to protect people from "going insane" - I wasn't "crazy" until the "experts" labeled me and took over my life. I discovered Ted Lasso early in my recovery (summer 2020) and have been a huge fan ever since. The show was instrumental in not feeling so pathologized. I get frustrated when mental health experts use harmful psycho-babble to describe NORMAL trauma responses... ESPECIALLY WHEN THE PUSH DANGEROUS MEDICATIONS to "treat" normal human reactions. I was coerced into taking lithium and Seroquel. The medications just made my symptoms worse. Four years later and I'm still trying to wean off the Seroquel. It's unconscionable that psychiatrists peddle these drugs without any concern for the victims of psychiatry's misinformation campaign. "Cognitive distortions" is a dehumanizing phrase - just like all the made up labels in the DSM. I'm only halfway through your "reaction", and I am so triggered that I can't watch any more. You very clearly have not taken any time to listen to the thousands (millions) of people who feel incredibly harmed by mainstream psychiatry. Please check out your British colleagues Sami Timimi and Joanna Moncrief (I will put links below). You seem like an intelligent well-meaning doctor, but you have clearly been brainwashed by the cult of psychiatry to believe that you are doing good when in actuality you are causing harm. Please stop listening to other "experts" like yourself and start listening to the REAL EXPERTS - the victims of the system. www.samitimimi.co.uk joannamoncrieff.com The best thing about Ted Lasso is it NORMALIZES anxiety, panic attacks, trauma being universal and the characters MODEL empathy, self-reflection, self-awareness, HEALTHY NARCISSISM, and, especially GROWTH (something that medications and so many"therapeutic" methods like DBT and even most CBT prevent). Fortunately there is not a single mention of 12-steps despite the heavy drinking throughout the series. 12-Step "Recovery" is an abomination that needs to be dismantled and put in the bin of history - along with so many other outdated psychiatric "beliefs". I'm almost 60 and I am appalled that young medical, nursing, and mental health students/professionals are still learning the same garbage they were learning back in the 80s before we understood that mental health issues are NOT primarily biological/genetic. Please, please, please start questioning your practices. We need more young professionals to start listening to the narratives of those who us who have been harmed so we can stop the horrific descent into a world where everyone has a psychiatric diagnosis and everyone is medicated to keep us controlled. If you've never taken an anti-psychotic, your should NOT be prescribing them to people who don't want to take them. Some of my own writing if you are interested in learning more from someone who has "been there" - on BOTH sides of the psychiatric bed. medium.com/@tarasierralee_57910/addiction-genetics-and-comorbidities-what-the-experts-arent-telling-you-17ed306bd6a2 medium.com/@tarasierralee_57910/high-needs-child-is-an-abusive-label-neurodiversity-is-a-myth-da6dc4334b82 medium.com/@tarasierralee_57910/harvard-university-mass-general-addiction-conference-2023-what-could-possibly-go-wrong-b0e7ced83ea2 medium.com/@tarasierralee_57910/creating-safe-spaces-a-guide-for-human-beings-especially-self-identified-empaths-or-philosophers-5acea82cfa medium.com/@tarasierralee_57910/suicide-prevention-paying-attention-to-the-red-flags-in-the-victims-of-narcissistic-abuse-8b5d455bd5d4

    Baseball Hall of Famer Randy Johnson was pitching during the preseason 34 years ago and he hit a mourning dove at 100 mph and all you see is feathers. Johnson is now a professional photographer and - and this is true - his photography logo is of a dead cartoon bird. In the only video of it you only see feathers, not any bird, so it’s not a traumatic video if you wanted to look it up. It is bananas.

    I would be SO fascinated to see you react to addiction, childhood trauma and PTSD in the show Patrick Melrose (starring benedict cumberbatch and tragically underrated). The show covers his life over quite a large time span and I personally think it does a phenomenal job of showing how harrowing addiction can be without bordering on implying total helplessness for its victims (unlike say euphoria where they sometimes tipped a bit too far into it being ‘wired’ and totally fixed).

Keep it up because when Ted gets into therapy it’s so uncomfortable, prevarication, fight and flight. One thing she says to him is that the truth will set him free but first it will piss him off. Oh boy that resonates! Keep going I’ve really enjoyed this - subscribed!

    I greatly appreciate your resistance to the natural temptation of doing a Ted Lasso/American accent imitation. Like many people, I find most foreigners' attempts at others' accent to be condescending and patronizing. Read into this what you will, in your capacity as a mental health professional.... Inferiority complex, over-inflated sense of self (flip side of the same coin), or perhaps I simply take offense at being lampooned. My natural accent is similar to the Ted Lasso character, although I can formalize my speech, or through travel exposure, code switch to other regional American accents. Nevertheless, I am sensitive to the perception that people who sound like me are unsophisticated and cartoonish. Thank you for not piling on.
