Previous Episode
We typically think of addiction as a symptom of a deeper issue, such as trauma or a psychiatric disorder. Sometimes, however, addiction is the main event, and powerlessness is the starting point, not some ambiguous distant stop on the substance abuse train.
Lena fell hard into addiction by sixth grade and by all rights should have been dead or imprisoned long ago. Yet today she is fully alive, deeply grateful, and six years clean and sober.
Dr. H and Lena explore her journey out of darkness and the varied and often surprising roles that jail, a caring probation officer, Suboxone, and a seemingly random visit by two near strangers all combined to help her change the course of her life.

Psychiatry in one question + When ketamine therapy gets difficult

In the first half of this two part mini-episode, Dr. H explores the four stages where fully dissociative doses of ketamine can get a little rocky:
*reaching escape velocity
*re-entry
*dissociative shatter
*post-session processing
What if a psychiatrist were allowed to ask only one question at a session....what might that be? In the second part of this episode, Dr. H ties together sleep, mood, hormone cycling, friendships, work, circadian rhythm, addiction, and dogs vs cats into just one question.
