Comedy and Cures: Anna David & Fred Stoller on Addiction and Depression

All chemicals have some potential therapeutic value. Okay, I get it, it's a depressing society. I'm saying that we've become such a neurotic, self-involved society that if we just switch things around, which is more of like Gloria Scott's way, if you went down to watts and tried to help some kids learn how to read, you wouldn't be so fucking depressed.
Ever wondered how comedy and serious topics like addiction and depression can blend together? In this episode of 'This Life #YOULIVE', Dr. Drew Pinsky, Bob Forrest, and Mike Catherwood welcome author Anna David and comedian Fred Stoller for a unique conversation that navigates the intersection of humor and mental health. Fred Stoller opens up about his personal battle with depression, sharing his experiences with various treatments, including ketamine.
He highlights how each chemical treatment holds potential therapeutic value and emphasizes the importance of helping others to improve one's mental health. Anna David brings her insights from 'After Party Magazine', sparking discussions on addiction and the different approaches to treatment. Dr. Drew contrasts their methods with the typical LA celebrity-focused rehab scene, offering a more compassionate and effective perspective. Bob Forrest adds his own colorful anecdotes, making sure there's never a dull moment.
This episode is a blend of candid reflections, expert opinions, and light-hearted moments that make it both engaging and informative. Whether you're looking for new perspectives on mental health or just a good laugh, this episode has something for everyone.
