We share our personal experiences.

We welcome Megan Aguilera to the “Let’s Get Psyched” team by asking her to discuss one of her special interests. Terms such as “susto” and “ataque de nervios” are frequently used in Latin America to describe a variety of emotional reactions and behaviors that are often similar—but distinct from—mental health conditions commonly seen by clinicians. Megan, a fourth year medical student at the University of Colorado Denver, helps us sort through how and when these terms are used while also sharing her understanding of these terms amongst her family and community.

Join us for part three of our discussion with psychiatrist, Harvard Professor, and agent of change Dr. Chris Palmer. He lays out why it is important to distinguish between disorders of the brain and conditions with external causes when treating patients and how prescribing psychotropic medication without sufficient consideration of metabolism has led to worse outcomes. Finally, he shares his approach to prescribing and speculates on how appropriate consideration of mitochondrial functioning will change the field. Stick around for a special after show where there's a behind-the-scenes peak of the team considering the real-world implications of sharing Dr. Palmer's work.

Why are there higher rates of obesity, diabetes, and early deaths amongst people diagnosed with a mental disorder? Dr. Chris Palmer joins us to advance the idea that mental disorders are actually metabolic disorders of the brain. After integrating research from several fields and sources, he claims that understanding metabolism at the cellular level is “the only way to connect the dots in the mental health field.” Please consult your doctor before applying any treatments discussed on this podcast.
