Most psychiatric illnesses are not mental health issues at all, but rather they are brain health issues that steal your mind.
What if treating mental illness started with a brain scan? In this episode of 'Mental Health News Radio', Dr. Daniel Amen, a leading psychiatrist and founder of Amen Clinics, shakes up conventional thinking. He argues that mental health issues are actually brain health issues. With over 150,000 brain scans from patients in 120 countries, Dr. Amen brings a wealth of knowledge to the table. He believes that understanding the brain’s function is key to treating psychiatric disorders effectively. Dr.
Amen dives into how brain scans can offer invaluable insights into conditions like depression, anxiety, and ADHD. He also touches on the often-overlooked roles that culture and family play in mental health. How do you teach someone to love and care for their brain? Dr. Amen has some transformative ideas. Host Kristin Sunanta Walker and musician Emily Sohn join the conversation, making it a well-rounded discussion filled with practical advice and personal anecdotes.
Whether you’re struggling with mental health issues or simply curious about the brain's role in these conditions, this episode offers a fresh perspective. Dr. Amen’s approach is not just about diagnosing problems but also about empowering people to take charge of their brain health. Imagine a world where brain scans are as common as blood tests in diagnosing mental health issues. Intrigued? Tune in to learn more about how brain health could revolutionize the way we think about mental illness.
