Why are we seeing more chronic disease, stress, obesity, addiction, and so many other states of illness than ever before, despite having the most advanced medical system in the world?
Because we aren’t living in a natural and normal world. We’re actually having normal responses to our abnormal circumstances, many of which create trauma that gets stored in the brain and body. Today on The Doctor’s Farmacy, I’m honored to talk to my dear friend Dr. Gabor Maté about the myth of normal, and why doing the difficult work of uncovering trauma is essential for living our fullest expression of life.
A renowned speaker and bestselling author, Dr. Gabor Maté is highly sought after for his expertise on a range of topics including addiction, stress, and childhood development. Dr. Maté has written several bestselling books, including the award-winning In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction, When the Body Says No: Exploring the Stress-Disease Connection, and Scattered: How Attention Deficit Disorder Originates and What You Can Do About It, and has co-authored Hold On to Your Kids: Why Parents Need to Matter More Than Peers. His latest book, The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness & Healing in a Toxic Culture was just released.

    I'm only half way through. At the point where Dr. Mate talked about turning off media and spending time alone. Which is what I'm going to do with the rest of the day. The happiest days of my life was when I lived in a ranch community in Mexico with no TV and only cassettes then CD's of music. The only TV I saw was at a Taco stand. Living close to nature and interacting with others who weren't touched by cable then media and an obsession for a plethora of products no one needs. Life was so peaceful!

    ​@@luchiayoung The psych 'meds'(neuro-toxins) in these drugs cripple and kill people. Especially benzodiazepenes, anti- psychotics, and anti- depressants! The BS about the 'chemical-imbalance' in the brain was debunked DECADES AGO, yet Big Harma is in denial and continues to PUSH these poisons thru primary care drs, and psychiatrists. Big Pharma can AFFORD the lawsuits. They bring in billions of $$$ a year. They are chemically lobotomizing thousands, if not millions of unwitting patient. Electro Convulsive 'Therapy'. Yes the American "humane" clean sister to Nazi 'experiments'. I speak for myself, as the horrific side effects that made me feel so horrible and sick, I would give ANYTHINGto go back to where I was before I trusted my 'mental' problems to a psychiatrist in the 1980's! The akasthesia and anhedonia have driven me to several suicide attempts. They prescribe this crap to young children. It just turns people into zombies. Tardive dyskinesia in my face and diaphragm. Can't do deep breathing exercise. At least 80 different adverse side effects, including stomach cramps, constipation, nausea, vomiting, severe indigestion, major headaches, brain fog, insomnia, irritability, hostility, parasthesia, neuropathy, parkinsonism, memory loss. inability to focus and concentrate, work, drive, delusions, hallucinations, paranoia, horrific nightmares, and intrusive thoughts that scare the hell out of me. It is indescribable HELL. Treating childhood trauma as a mental illness. Psychiatry, from personal experience is an INDUSTRTRY of DEATH!. If ACE's were eliminated, there would be no Psychiatry. No psychiatrist EVER asked me what happened to me in childhood. It was HELL. Multi generational domestic violence, including incest, rape of family members, yelling, hitting,. Just sick, sick sick!. I thought everyone's families were like mine. It was all I knew. My 'normal'. Never had a 'healthy' relationship with anyone. Then to be further victimized by the healthcare industry with their 'diagnoses', of mental 'disorders'. This is CRIMINAL, what psychiatrists are doing. They will not acknowledge it, but blame it on their patients 'mental disorder'. The stigma of labels is humiliating. Sorry, I need to vent. I never was a 'fan' of Jordan Peterson, but I am thankful that his mental disintegration from benzodiazepines has brought national attention to what these drugs do to people. The man is losing his mind! He is sick and needs to stop his practice. I have 0 respect for him. He never should have been a clinical psychologist. He was NOT a 'good enough' father.imo. He used corporal punishment on his toddler son!. A hypocrite. He told people to leave abusive relationship, and he was an abuser! Out of his own mean, angry mouth. I think the healthcare system has a lot of sicko abusers 'treating' clients and patients, some who are more 'sicker' than the people they 'help'. Some therapists do even further harm. Just my humbling opinion. I have been humbled and crippled for life! THIS NEEDS TO STOP!. I doubt it will. Why? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$!

    The message I getting here is: we are all hurt in different ways throughout our lives, many of us are born with the hurts of our ancestors, making us extra sensitive. It is part of being human. If we can express our emotions every time we’re hurt then there is no wound left behind. If we can’t in the moment, if there is no compassionate witness to our pain, no one who says sorry, then we swallow the pain and the wound goes deeper. Every new hurt is added to it. With the advance of science we have left behind our natural ability to heal ourselves from all our internal hurts, we have lost the connection with our true selves, where our natural intuition should flow from. Instead we have been persuaded to trust a system outside ourselves, which has done a lot for mankind and saved millions of lives, but is now hopelessly broken because they abandoned natural healing. It’s overloaded, but it doesn’t need to be if we take care of our own hurts.

    Thank you for an excellent insightful comment. "If we cant in the moment express the hurt, if there is no compassionate witness to our pain, no one who says sorry - then we swallow the pain and the wound goes deeper" So it is important to be aware of this and when such hurt occurs, it is important to have developed tools that have soothed us in previous hurts. And then to keep using these tools to soothe whatever the present hurt is.

    @@thebusybee7080 excellent follow-through …. develop tools so that we can process our own hurts, as and when they occur. Who better to do the job! No need for storing up pain, even when there’s no one around. I actually did this the other day, after an incident with a family member, I was upset and called a friend, she wasn’t there, I called round to another and she wasn’t there, so I went for a walk, listened to some music, and processed the whole thing myself. I think I shed a few tears as I walked, but I know I felt fine afterwards and I just know I haven’t stored up anything that’s likely to come back and haunt me. So a long walk, a meditation or some breathwork could be useful tools. I’m sure there are many more, it’s a matter of finding something that works for you. Thanks for sharing 😃

    I was fortunate to get to spend 6 months alone on a mountain top on the North Shore of Kaua’i with a view of Napali~ one of the wettest places on Earth. It was amazing. and so peaceful. Just what the Dr. ordered! ( meaning my own inner Dr.) Never doubt your own ability to be open to your own healing. We are deeply, innately connected to our best selves, as soon as we believe that is possible. Living on the North Shore was better than any other therapy I’ve tried at getting my brain and heart in balance. Now almost 63 I am beginning to realize the power of peacefulness in healing one’s self, though it has been a lifelong process of baby steps. To commit to one’s own self healing is a process that changes everything. Looking forward to many health centered years ahead. 💜

We believe and make ourselves overly important, when, in fact, our sudden death tonight doesn't make any difference to the society. Life goes in finely without us. Some know this truth and live easily. Some don't know it and suffer. Some reject the truth and live with the label of mental illness.

    to re-imagine society is to become actively creative ... again ... we have the resources to start the social healing pattern right now ... organizing the availability of being creative has been an exclusion to the point we don't even question that we aren't exercising the enormous value about who we are ... the arts ... each community has an artist's community ... the other education !!!!! My example is this ... for 9 years I invited young people into my studio for after-school studio time ... this became most relevant and obvious other educational environment that I saw kids absolutely need ... I had this as a kid ... I had no more than 3 or four kids in an afternoon from 3 to 5:30 an artist can mentor these young people and empower them ... include them ... show them ... help them ... and hang out with them .... it was known as The Kid's Art Dept. Studio ... some of my best friends have been 8 years old ... I have become life long friends with some of these young people and we are family in how we grew up together to know and care about each other in a uniquely magical way... seriously, the best experiences about real relationships I have ever felt ... I saw their discomforts and fears melt away each time they came ... profound transformations ... I shared what I knew when we were working ... couple of idea choices and let them think on it ... draw it down ... try it ... just doing stuff ... we wrote books, paper mache', public art by re-painting the town's lamp post banners !!!! ... made flags and walked in parades, made and sold our wide variety of their artworks in our own store shop, stop motion animation, becoming the art department for school plays, ... and then some ... when we begin to spend time with our kids again we are passing on what we have learned ... meanwhile we also benefit from their simple perspectives which we have long forgotten ... we need our artists brought back into the fold of community to help us each remember the reliance of the arts as in the value we give to the sciences ... they are partners ... not competitors ... I found to re-balance the equation to include creative problem solving, making things, self surprise, self confidence, self recognition in the environment that encourages our potential hidden skills and interests we are running on all pistons of who we aspire to ... mentoring is a standard historical part of community ... to teach and pass on to our kids ... they need us now more than ever to be prepared in the massive process to re-invent the world issues they are inheriting ... kind of a no brain-er to get them fully inspired and feel confident ... thank you so very much for sharing this massive topic ... please try to put this interview in the hands of all available schools, medical facilities, in every home library ... this could be the most important sit down session in our human history ... how much would begin to clear if our kids were paid better attention to and become well built !!!!

There is most likely a root cause for your colitis that stems from trauma from many, many, years ago. I found this modality to be very helpful in dealing with trauma from early childhood. Lending energy to your healing process.

I know where in my childhood I disconnected from my body- I hadn’t put it together with the colitis before- then I heard Gabor Maté talking about chronic illness and now “I’m on it” as they say. Thanks for your support and helpful advice 😊

    I don't know if you'll read this, but in case you do, you gave some hope to a 23 year old in the same situation. I've been wondering why pain has always been the least noticeable symptom for me, despite a horrible flare where my disease progressed to pancolotis, until I realized my body stored it. Breaking out of constant dissociation, although it resurfaces, has made it easier to listen to my body. With all of that said, I hope you're feeling better and remain in remission. Healing is hard in itself, perhaps more so when your own body can attack you, but we're not alone.

    @@fatjesusonbike1276 Thank you for getting in touch. Gabor has a few books/audiobooks- his latest “the Myth of Normal” was about the childhood need for connection but longer term health risks of tuning into the needs of others and not wanting to disappoint others at the expense of your own needs and inability to express anger.. but his book “when the body says ‘no’ “ was also hard to read because it resonated. His “no” exercise was soo helpful.. he discusses a lot of it in interviews on KZread- it was much easier for me to take it in small youtube sized doses than read the book- I’m going pretty well- by 4 months post colectomy I was travelling to Greece solo and making up my own mind how I wanted to spend my days- it was a fantastic experience to feel like the architect of my own days.. haha.. It’s a journey for me but I think I’m better at saying no, more comfortable with disappointing other people and I go dancing regularly- and-not when I’m tired. I’m better at asking for help when I need it. It’s a journey, but looking after myself AND others was a big shift. Thank you again for saying my journey was helpful to you. I must have written that post a few days after getting out of hospital because I went to my EMDR intensive about a week after discharge.. I’m going OK. Good luck with yours, it’s a big adjustment x

    These conversations are helping tremendously at this time in my life when I've chosen, finally, to seek therapy for the final frontier of self. Having said that, I wouldn't have this privilege without the help of a 12 step program (which is free to all) and the people involved. My first need was to stop drowning; stop dying, and that happened by creating community for myself. Then I was afforded time to look at how I got to the brink of death. Never try to teach a drowning person how to swim, just get them out of the water, and give them a safe place to recover. There's no way to do this deeper work if I'm dead. Thank you for everything you both do in the world to help people recover their lives from disease.

I'm finding it incredibly hard to get my message through to my community and church! They don't believe that we need to Roar! To be healed. I came out with my story of being sexually abused by my father at a tender age of twelve. And I wrote my memoir " Hush to Roar, and even though I got ostracised by my family and resulted in my divorce of over 24years, I feel so healed and free and unexplained peace! I just want to help others. I give talks in schools abroad and want to share that healing involves Tears, Time and Talking! I had so many physical ailments and I'm getting so much better now.

Physiotherapy’s throughout my entire life, ( 70+years) have never helped me as my childhood experiences was so overwhelming I’m told is the stuff movies are made of. Passing me from colleague to colleague to only start all over again was painfully exhausting and soul depleting. I gave up on conventional Therapy. I have read hundreds of books over the years etc. which only left me more confused, barely functioning threw society. I have to tell you( Dr. Mate you have saved my life numerous times) over the last few years since I came across you, your humanity, knowledge and your life’s ideology. You have given me hope and has helped me navigate through my life’s challenges and experiences. I finally feel I’m on the right road to healthy healing.

It seems most ppl right now don’t even start the dig till maybe in their 40 or later. The great thing about this, is that this new way of looking at a patient may now be able to help young and potentially help sooner in these ppl youth and not till they’re old or a disease takes them first.

    Loneliness (20:30) is not the same as solitude, which some of us actually enjoy. If we are to take anything from Sartre is that "Hell is other people." It's like they are intertwined and as such, mental disease spreads because madness is contagious. When you are healthier, you stand out among the unhealthy and mixing the sound with the sick is a really bad idea.
