Today we're joined by Dr. Roger McFillin, clinical psychologist and co-host of the "Radically Genuine" podcast, to discuss where the field of psychology has gone wrong. We talk about his skepticism of the field, starting with the cultural shift when Prozac was brought to market. We discuss the importance of emotions and managing them and what's causing the dramatic increase in mind- and mood-altering drugs in adolescents. Then, a hot topic: Is there ever actually a need for SSRIs (also known as antidepressants)? And if not, how do we navigate psychological treatment without the quick fix of numbing? We also take a look at the marketing of pharmaceutical drugs and exactly who's pushing them and why. Stay tuned for part two tomorrow!
