He covers a lot, explaining dissociative identity disorder through his &#8220;shattered crystal&#8221; analogy, why bipolar disorder often gets missed until a manic episode occurs, why isolation triggers shame as an old survival mechanism, and how antidepressants actually work in the brain. Dr. K offers a simple test for knowing when you need more support than friends can give and why &#8220;just observe your feelings with curiosity&#8221; is a trainable skill, not something everyone can do equally.<\/p>\n<p>\u25bc Timestamps \u25bc<br \/>\n\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500<\/p>\n<p>00:00 &#8211; Introduction<br \/>\n00:14 &#8211; Gianmarco Soresi<br \/>\n00:50 &#8211; Multiple Personality Disorders<br \/>\n04:11 &#8211; Taylor Tomlinson<br \/>\n04:34 &#8211; Approval of Medication<br \/>\n07:09 &#8211; Mood Stabilizer<br \/>\n08:43 &#8211; Neal Brennan<br \/>\n09:19 &#8211; Isolation<br \/>\n11:01 &#8211; Mae Martin<br \/>\n11:22 &#8211; Reasons to Seek Therapy<br \/>\n13:34 &#8211; Shunya &amp; Emptiness<br \/>\n17:07 &#8211; Tom Segura<br \/>\n19:33 &#8211; Expectation vs Reality<br \/>\n24:28 &#8211; Drew Lynch<br \/>\n27:08 &#8211; Antidepressant Medication<br \/>\n30:26 &#8211; Antidepressant &amp; Drinking<br \/>\n31:39 &#8211; Ray DeVito<br \/>\n32:42 &#8211; How To Deal With ADHD Kids<br \/>\n35:18 &#8211; ADHD &amp; Anxiety<\/p>\n<p>\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500\u2500<\/p>\n<p>Join over 30,000 people who&#8217;ve built a more meaningful life with personalized support from HG Coaching: https:\/\/bit.ly\/49xauR8<\/p>\n<p>We offer tons of mental wellness resources to help you get your life on track.
