I think he has a point here. There are some people who too quickly claim they are depressed just because they are unhappy for a bit, like when something doesn’t go their way. Real depression is serious. Just feeling depressed because the sun hasn’t been shining for 3 days in a row due to bad weather (real conversation I had) isn’t it. People became too sensitive and want want to be more sick than they actually are.

Touché !! Life is full of uPs & downs,… One just needs to maintain a balanced equilibrium, so that the highs aren’t too big & the lows don’t bottom out… DIET is everything, ie Keto/Carnivore,… The green smoothie is a death trap IMO 😬,… sleep, digestion, energy/muscle mass, skin & MOOD/Anxiety are sure to follow 👊🏼

I get his point, I lost my son as a consequence of a stupid car accident, and it took me a long time to recover, but I needed to because I had another child who needed me, at some point in my recovery I did group therapy were other people that had suffered accidents at work, doing sport etc, and it was a lady with a huge trauma because she has been attacked by a cat, that is something to respect, but her attitude was very different than the rest, she wanted to be depressed all the time, continuously crying and taking the time of the group, I use to think but not say anything until a man that had a work accident told her "skip any cat around and move on", is just sometimes people make a profession to be mentally sick, I will never recover from my son's death, I have the pain always with me, but I can have a life and perform around others with no show of my pain because at the end is no one else fault that who caused it. and bad things happen in life

I can’t imagine being in a group therapy for trauma, listening to people talk about losing someone or getting seriously hurt or even disabled from a accident and then my turn comes and I go and talk about a cat attacking me…… wtfffff

People aren't just going online trying to find a mental illness. They are concerned enough to look up their symptoms and and realize that they might be depressed. It's on doctors to only prescribe these to patients who actually need them.

I think what is really dangerous is that people can’t even entertain what this guy says as a thought experiment because they are so biased

This guy is saying that our mood can change with what happens to us in life. Why is that indicative of him being a quack? He’s not saying that there’s no such thing as cognitive disorders……

He is a psychiatrist. He has had to do a medical degree then psychology. He can prescribe medications and a psychologist can't.

The interviewer pushes his agenda over him and he kinda agrees with many of them. And the agenda is this classic, feel good, "illusion of control" thing that "it is just bad mood". Also many psychiatrists do in fact start with workout, nutrition, psychological environment of the patient first. But if the patient arrives to just grab some pills...

Dr. Daniels' perspective helped me to accept ups and downs of life.

I'd recommend anyone watching this video to read Theodore Dalrymple's (or watch his other videos)

I see both: 1) depression & anxiety are normal responses to the state of the world and the fear mongering media, certainly more so with youth And 2) pendulum swings back and forth, creating positive change, but we have to work together and focus our intention on the good of humanity

"Mental illness" is UNPROVABLE. There is NO OBJECTIVE TEST to prove "schizophrenia", "manic depression" etc. You CANNOT prove mental illness by a BLOOD TEST, CAT SCAN, ETC. It is ALL SUBJECTIVELY determined by a self proclaimed "expert". PSYCHOLOGISTS and PSYCHIATRISTS have stated this FACT for DECADES especially regarding pardoning MURDERERS on the basis of "mental illness" - including past PRESIDENTS of the American Psychiatric Assiciation! Its all a SHAM. The REAL PROBLEM is UNNACCEPTABLE BEHAVIOR - NOT UNPROVABLE "illnesses"! btw - Im a Psychology Major.

True its based on reactions or speech patterns. Lots of reasons for it but it does seem to run in families. Some with a family history of it eventually wind down to autism. Thyroid disease used to be a a reason people went insane but, now its treatable. I know a person who if they don't stabilize their blood sugar they think they are Jesus Christ. Some people with brain damage are said to be insane. I believe their are physical reasons that create a reaction that they call Mental Illness. Like chronic disease or chronic pain or emotional abuse scars.

there are some that can be supported with a mri/cat scan. You need to redo or extend your psychology major to develop your understanding that there is an underlying trigger/s or condition/s for 'unacceptable behaviours'.

But what if these illnesses correspond to patterns of unacceptable behaviour that are ingrained in people?

Some of this has been covered in-depth in the book Anatomy of an Epidemic by Robert Whitaker and Side Effects by Alison Bass (as well as many other books). There's also a recent documentary called "Medicating Normal" (listed on IMDB).

There needs to be a huge change in society's perspective of someone with 'a mental health' issue. You just have to see comments in response to a situation involving a person with a mental health issue/diagnosis. 9 times out of 10 ppl make it sound like any mental health diagnosis needs to be locked up in the cuckoos nest. There's too much negative stigma and not enough development of understanding.

I was ready to kill myself a few years ago and I thought it was my own fault. I eventually had complete burn out from trying to live a normal life with crippling depression and anxiety. I was prescribed sertraline and used them for 1 year and all the negative thoughts are gone.

Agreed. It ends up being used as a crutch or an excuse. Makes for an extremely soft people

Some people here are too soft for the hard truth: there are bad life situations and toxic environments, there are traumas and their consequences which can heal normally, and then you have biological stuff: autism, psychopathy, ADHD and others are not traumas you can "get better" from. There's also PTSD, CPTSD and other very vile things where the trauma caused lasting biological changes. Now these are the things that don't heal on their own with time, these folks are leading us to believe. Decent psychiatrists always start by figuring out the light stuff first: ample amount of exercise, nutrition, healthy environment. There are also effective therapies and groups overcoming terrible workplaces and bad parenting. But then there are clear cases for meds.

I think much of this is caused by social isolation in our modern world. I would also include people's diet in our modern world, too much sugars, processed food, fast food and soda. I remember as a child in the early 1960s we had 2 fast food restaurants in our city. Today we have 17 in our city. The same period in the 1960s backyard gardens were everywhere today i very seldom see one. People were outdoors all the time, today many people are indoors much of the time.

As someone with lifelong severe anxiety, long before it became trendy, I get what hes trying to say but clearly he has never felt what extreme anxiety feels like. Its not fashionable to me. Its hell. I agree so many people are self diagnosing. Antidepressants have been proven to not work. Not sure why everyone forgot that. Also it is quite easy for these two who clearly arent being effected in a serious way by thingsblike inflation are out of touch.

box clever here chappy.! 🤔 ✌🏻🇦🇺🌏🤘🏻

The description didn’t say he has written many books and worked for years in prisons as a psychiatrist. The interviewer needs voice training - horrible squeak.
