Thank you for acknowledging that people can make you feel something without your consent. When you tell someone who has experienced deep long lived trauma that they should be able to control that feeling is irresponsible and highly damaging. It’s essentially blaming someone for their anxiety and setting them up for failure.

Thank you for another insightful and neuroscientifically correct explanation, Dr Kennedy. <br>I read this recently: "Something or someone can be the <b>stimulus</b> for us feeling something," which I found to be a different perspective than, "They <b>made</b> me feel this way".

It seems like as I go on this journey of noticing patterns and slowly adjusting, new things get unlocked. Thank you for this conversation, hearing it this week unlocks something I’ve been experiencing regarding the reward/punishment system and victim mindset. 😊

What do you think of supplements such as Lithium Orotate? I have never responded well using medications and am on Buspar 7.5mg 2x day but researched supplements and Lithium Orotate came up. I started taking it and after a couple of weeks feel calm, but not tired. I still take Buspar but have thought of weaning off and sticking with the supplement 10mg once a day. Although it’s not something you are going to take and feel something, I do feel much more calm. When thrown into a situation where I would have a panic attack, I feel much more calm and so far haven’t had any attacks or feelings of coming close to having one.

Doctor Kennedy, I enjoy listening to you. I think you’re one of the smartest men that I’ve ever come across however, I do not like the music. It doesn’t fit the podcast and it’s not welcoming just my opinion.
