    206. EXPLOSIVE ADHD Debate You Need to Hear with Psychiatrist Dr. Ryan Sultan
    Oct 23 2025
    Dr. Ryan Sultan is a Board Certified Adult and Child Psychiatrist, researcher and Assistant Professor of Clinical Psychiatry at Columbia University Irving Medical Center. He is also in private practice with expertise in the evaluation and treatment of ADHD. One in six American boys is now diagnosed with ADHD. In France, it's one in 200. American children are diagnosed with ADHD at rates 30 times higher than other Western nations. We consume 80% of the world's ADHD stimulants despite being 4% of the population.There's no blood test, no brain scan, no biological evidence this "disorder" actually exists - just subjective checklists and lines of questioning. In this essential episode, Dr. McFillin challenges the validity and reliability of ADHD diagnosis, and what unfolds is a stunning revelation about how 7 million children ended up on amphetamines.

Translation: American psychiatry created diagnostic criteria that captures the most kids. This isn't discovering disease - it's widening the net.The 20-Fold Difference They Can't Explain: The article acknowledges a "20-fold greater prevalence of childhood hyperactivity in North America compared with England" in 1970s studies. Their explanation? Different diagnostic practices, not different children. So they're admitting the "disease" depends entirely on who's doing the diagnosing.The Admission Hidden in Plain Sight: The authors state that differences in prevalence "reflect differences in diagnostic practice rather than true differences in behavior." They're literally admitting ADHD prevalence is about diagnostic opinion, not biological reality.Even establishment researchers like Faraone admit that ADHD prevalence varies 20-fold based on diagnostic criteria used, not actual differences in children's behavior. They acknowledge it's diagnostic practice, not disease prevalence, that creates these massive variations. This 2003 paper proves psychiatry has known for decades that ADHD rates are artificially inflated by American diagnostic criteria.The Irony: This paper, trying to prove ADHD is universal, actually proves it's a diagnostic construct that changes based on which manual you use. That's not how real diseases work.

    205. Can Faith and Prayer Really Heal You?
    Oct 16 2025

    What if the mental health crisis isn't just a medical problem—but a spiritual one being treated with the wrong tools? In this paradigm-shifting episode, Beatty Carmichael reveals how he's helped over 1,000 people find freedom from conditions labeled as mental illness, chronic pain, and addiction—often within 24 hours—by addressing what he calls the "spiritual roots" of suffering. After God took away his supernatural healing gift that worked 90% of the time, Carmichael was forced to develop a systematic approach that anyone can learn. Watch as he demonstrates his Prayer of Freedom process live with Dr. McFillin, producing real-time results that challenge everything we think we know about healing. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, chronic pain, or simply curious about the intersection of spirituality and health, this conversation offers a radically different perspective on why traditional approaches may be failing—and what actually works when we address the invisible forces at play.

    About Beatty Carmichael:

    Beatty Carmichael is a former business executive who comes from seven generations of medical doctors. After 25 years in marketing and helping real estate agents generate listings, his life took an unexpected turn when God gave him a gift of healing that resulted in 90% of people he prayed for experiencing instant relief from conditions ranging from chronic pain to mental illness. When God removed this gift to teach him how to systematize the process, Carmichael developed The Prayer of Freedom—a step-by-step guide that enables anyone to address the spiritual roots of their suffering. He is the founder of Get Radical Faith Ministries, reaching audiences worldwide through live events, podcasts, and video broadcasts. Carmichael regularly teaches at one of America's largest addiction recovery centers, where he's documented an 87% success rate using his methods. His unique approach bridges the gap between ancient spiritual wisdom and practical application, offering hope to those who've found limited relief through conventional treatments.

  • 204. The Nocebo Effect and How Doctors Unknowingly Create Chronic Conditions

    204. The Nocebo Effect and How Doctors Unknowingly Create Chronic Conditions
    Oct 9 2025

    Your doctor just became your worst enemy. When the medical establishment brands chronic dizziness conditions like PPPD, MDDS, and vestibular migraines as "incurable," they're not just wrong, they're actively destroying lives through calculated ignorance. Dr. Yonit Arthur, a board-certified audiologist with a doctorate from Purdue University, drops a bombshell: patients experiencing 24/7 sensory collapse, paralyzing terror, and complete disorientation aren't suffering from permanent damage. They're trapped in a fear loop that doctors reinforce with every "learn to manage it" prescription. After watching the medical system fail hundreds of desperate patients who've seen 20, 30, even 40 specialists, Dr. Arthur launched The Steady Coach a popular YouTube channel with free courses to expose an uncomfortable truth. These "chronic" conditions persist because patients have been programmed to believe they're broken. We discuss the way out.

    203. ADHD Myths Exposed
    Oct 2 2025

    Is ADHD really a brain disorder or a label created to sell drugs? Dr. Roger McFillin speaks with filmmaker Roman Wyden, founder of the ADHD Is Over movement- that includes a book, podcast and upcoming documentary. Roman shares why he rejected the ADHD label for his son and what he uncovered about the system behind it: schools, pharma, and psychiatry pushing parents toward pills. Together they expose how 6 million children in America are prescribed stimulants like Adderall and Ritalin, the billion-dollar ADHD industry that profits from it, and why more parents are waking up and saying: ADHD is over.

    202. The Session That Made Me Question Everything I Know About Healing
    Sep 25 2025

    In this mind-bending episode, Dr. Roger McFillin shares the therapy session that shattered his understanding of how healing actually works. Originally written on his substack he feels compelled to share the entire story (with his clients permission). What started as a routine Monday evening appointment with a client overwhelmed, ready to give up and go on psychiatric drugs became the most extraordinary 90 minutes of his career. By the end, he witnessed something that defied all explanation—and then his car did something in the parking lot that made him question reality itself. A powerful lesson in the abilities we all possess but have forgotten.

  • 201. Could Poor Breathing Be Causing Anxiety, Fatigue, and Poor Sleep?

    201. Could Poor Breathing Be Causing Anxiety, Fatigue, and Poor Sleep?
    Sep 18 2025

    Most of us never think about how we breathe but science shows it may be one of the most overlooked drivers of health and disease.
    Dr. Roger McFillin talks with Dr. Amy Lichon, a double-board-certified physician who left a successful hospital career to teach people how to heal through their breath. They explore why mouth breathing fuels anxiety, insomnia, and fatigue, how carbon dioxide and nasal breathing affect the nervous system, and why a century-old method called Buteyko could transform sleep, focus, and even athletic performance.
    You’ll learn practical tools from a simple “control pause” test to techniques for decongesting the nose and calming the nervous system that anyone can start today. If you’ve tried everything for stress, sleep, or focus and nothing sticks, this conversation may reveal the missing piece.

  • 200. Psychiatrist Joanna Moncrieff Exposes the Antidepressant Lies & Chemical Imbalance Myth

    200. Psychiatrist Joanna Moncrieff Exposes the Antidepressant Lies & Chemical Imbalance Myth
    Sep 11 2025

    Joanna Moncrieff is a British psychiatrist and academic. She is Professor of Critical and Social Psychiatry at University College London and a member of the Critical Psychiatry Network. She is the author of The Myth of the Chemical Cure and The Bitterest Pills, which are considered central texts in the critical psychiatry movement. Moncrieff is critical of mainstream psychiatry’s medical model of mental illness. Professor Moncrief's 2022 paper in molecular psychiatry didn't just make waves, it created a tsunami. Leading a systemic review of five decades of research, she and her team definitively demonstrated what no one had dared to state so clearly that there's no convincing evidence that depression is caused by a serotonin imbalance or any chemical imbalance at all. This paper became one of the most widely read scientific papers in modern history, ranking in the top 5 % of all research ever tracked. The world took notice because the world needed to know. Her groundbreaking new book, Chemically Imbalanced, The Making and Unmaking of the Serotonin Myth, meticulously documents how an entire medical narrative was constructed without scientific foundation marketed to billions and defended by institutions that should know better.

  • 199. The Barbaric Truth About Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT)

    199. The Barbaric Truth About Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT)
    Sep 4 2025

    Most people think electroshock therapy was abandoned decades ago. The unfortunate truth is it’s still widely used, with well over 100,000 (probably much higher) Americans receiving ECT every year.Yet the devices have never been properly safety tested.
    In this episode, Dr. Roger McFillin sits down with Sarah Price Hancock, a certified rehabilitation counselor, educator, and survivor who underwent 116 ECT treatments. Sarah lost 85–90% of her memories from the first 36 years of her life, developed neurological complications, and later learned her original psychiatric symptoms weren’t even a mental illness.
