  • Episode 26 - Is Therapy and Mental Health Treatment Affecting US Politics in a Bad Way? (With Z.E. Silver)
    Apr 8 2024

    In this conversation, Z.E. Silver and Amanda discuss the impact of social media on mental health, the connection between victimhood and political affiliations, and the danger of constantly consuming terrible news. They also explore the relationship between political leanings and belief in free will, the cliff of abdicating responsibility and agency, and the over-therapizing of children. The importance of resilience and solution-oriented therapy is highlighted, as well as the perpetuation of victimhood and the lack of resilience. The problem with constant validation and the inability to question is discussed, along with the self-fulfilling prophecy of persecution. The conversation concludes with a focus on the importance of taking responsibility and finding humanity, as well as success stories and the power of individual agency. The conversation covers various themes, including responsibility and involvement in politics, generational cycles and societal changes, America's role in world affairs, potential scenarios and crises, vulnerabilities and threats, leadership and political dynamics, and future outlook and concerns. The hosts also exchange Ramadan greetings and share final thoughts.
