I had a difficult childhood , with a mentally ill mother , and very disfunctional sister ..But I played outside all through the year . Walked everywhere , and swam all summer . Hiked and skied in the winter . I walked all over the cities I lived in , I went out at night and saw concerts .Being outside, or going out is the best medicine , also having a few good friends to make you laugh and get into trouble a little . Not hanging out on the ol computer all day and night . Pills can't fix your life . Living well can certainly help . We all need to Play More and Work and Worry less .
❤ omg very similar situation, we had 16 people in a 6 bedroom house. very dysfunctional - i signed up for sports, after school activities and volunteered allot.the moment i could afford to move i dd but i cant shake some of my dysfunctional family members. smh i cut off 90% of them. Tried to help some of them, help themselves but I had to learn you can’t save people from themselves.
I forgot to mention I have PTSD in relation to when my daughter had Leukemia seen lot's of kids pass it affected me really bad it was rough then a few years ago my son committed suicide GSW to head so now I really am even more depressed since my son passed I am anti-social I can't get outta bed I avoid family or friends and feel like I'm just egsisting I really struggle bad.
Depression is a lack of healthy food,exercise, love normal interactions with other humans etc! We live in a horrible world! So no wonder folks are depressed!
I cannot even express how much I love this guy 😍... he's spot on on so many levels. Bottom line we CAN heal. Choose to heal! Do the hard things. Thank you both 😊
Personally I feel like our current societal situation with both parents working and trying to do it all is a mess. Getting proper sleep, nutrition, and exercise is such a task that it feels like a setup for failure. When you’re over exhausted and stressed because you never have any time for anything and told to just add more work with diet and exercise, it feels like a joke. SSRI’s just emotionally numb and make you not care if you’re fat, tired, and strangers spend more time with your kids than you do.
@lolz-f6c Yes! The stress and exhaustion of it all is overwhelming, but with support from someone helping you develop strategies to make even small changes can make a huge difference in your well-being. As a wellness coach, I'm trained to partner with people for their empowerment in making healthful choices.

Thank you! I agree with much of this. I do think staying in a depressed state due to something traumatic can become organic. But it can be treated with food, movement, gratitude, and good relationships.
Replying toKDTif, I totally agree with you. Nowadays psychiatrist will diagnose probably 90% of their patients with Major Depressive Disorder and straightaway put them on sedatives and antidepressants which patients will be addicted to. Depression is not I inborn, mainly due to external forces and if these factors are not dealt with, these patients will NEVER recover despite and especially have to be on medications for the rest of their life. Tell me, how often and how long do psychiatrists spend time with their patients, the usual thing is repeat medications dispensed before. Remember the motto for doctors "FIRST DO NO HARM" and also first do no pharm.
43:18 “ all the people in Africa were dying of starvation” this is such a a White western mentality - Africans were not starving. Africans were colonized. They were doing just fine before the interference and those who have not been influenced by the West and eating this crap that y’all call food are doing just fine.
90% of all Dr's. mental health or primary care are nothing more than drug pushers for big pharma. 90% of primary care Dr's prescribe gabapentin for neuropathy when it inhibits nerve growth. It takes 23 years to get good medicine practiced because the Dr's are more interested in cashing their checks and causing harm than helping tge patients

I will say, my major depression & anxiety along with the suicide attempts showed up at 42 after losing my engineering career. Tried every drug available & had horrible side effects. Turned out, I left my bad marriage after 13 years of depression (33 years of marriage) & my depression went away. Had outstanding therapy to handle & process what I had dealt with & for the last 17 years I have never been happier & no depression or anxiety since the day I left. My psychiatrist & psychologists during those 13 years never considered situation. They just wanted to throw drugs at it which made it worse not bettet. Life is a challenge, I left the marriage with nothing but my inheritance from my mom after she died....life is truly good now. Depression, anxiety, Anorexia & PTSD.....all healed
Thank you for speaking out about Ensure. I am a nurse, and I educated each patient on the list of chemicals and high sugar content. Also, a coke on each patients food tray.
It’s wild with these hospitals and rehabs put in front of their patients and then they wonder why they’re not doing well - sugary food - toxic chemicals. smh
From aged 23 I have had a life of addictions. I had been taking high dose antidepressants for over 25 years and always thought that I wasn’t depressed, but instead I had high anxiety, since I was a very anxious child and teenager. I was living a life of no tears and no enthusiasm for anything, just ticking off the days. Due to years of gut problems, in 2020 I changed my diet to ‘high fat animal based’ and once I gained pain free eating I decided to wean myself off of the SSRI’s. It’s now over 18 months since I finished with the pills and now I am experiencing the same high anxiety again! I have come to realise that I am an ‘Adult child of an alcoholic and dysfunctional family’. Drugs could never fix me. I have begun an ACA 12 Step program and adopted a Higher Power as the parent I never had.
What a wonderful Dr. I’ve been on at least 15 different medications for my depression symptoms over the years. It’s very disheartening. We need to focus more research into this epidemic. A happy and healthy population is a more productive population. Stress from living in our society and the poor physical health is the number one cause in my belief. The pressure on people today is not what our brains are designed to withstand. ❤
Sorry, but after a brain injury I had clinical depression for yrs. Finally found one anti-depressant that worked. I have little depression here and there but nothing like I use to experience. I can't tell you how bad it use to be, like walking through molasses. Vitamins, exercise, are good too.
Biking exercise became a really freeing experience in healing from traumatic brain injury and physical mobility issues. I love the exercise benefits for mental wellness too
Obviously there have to be benefits from antidepressants for some people, some of the time, otherwise they wouldn't have become some of the most sold and prescribed pharmaceuticals in the world. So you don't have to defend yourself for having found something that helped you. The problem is, that for others, like me, they end up causing more harm and suffering in the long term, and often, when being given the option to try these things, we are not told about the risks, or told of potential negative outcomes and problems with stopping them. I wish I had known about alternatives to SSRIs before I was told that I have a chemical imbalance and that a daily pill would fix me. Not only didn't it fix me, it made the course of my life 100 times worse, which 30 years later, I'm still trying to dig myself out from, thankfully with the help of doctors like this. Adopting a ketogenic diet, and then going mostly carnivore has been key for me, to help with the damage done by long term antidepressant use and the underlying anxiety which got me on them in the first place.
@12:42 it is not a freakin epidemic! It's just humans being humans, struggling with life problems for which they too often don't have any support because people don't trust nor support each other (hence loneliness) plus the fact that society doesn't give a F about individuals! It's not a freakin epidemic! People are having normal reactions to abnormal situations! When my dog died i was prescribed anti-depressants because i wasn't supposed to cry! Really now. If there's any epidemic then it's an epidemic of carelessness, coruption and ignorance.
Could it be that the attachment to people or situations cause depression? I observed my father's behaviour after my mom died.Lots of alchocol and work.Just escaping reality.
@markozivkovic7409 Attachment to people or situations is normal to both humans and animals. Only psychopats do not emotionally attach to others because they perceive people as disposable objects. Also, it is normal to feel grief when losing someone we're emotionally attached to, but when this sadness is for too long it becomes chronic and we call it depression. We are habitual living beings so it may feel difficult to go through such changes. But resorting to alchohol and drugs and such, is a very destructive way to cope with reality. It would be ideal to have close people who help us go through such difficult times, either relatives, friends or therapists. Even mild anti-depressants could by far be a better option than alcohol because alcohol is highly destructive to just about any organ in the body. Thus, two aspects are important here: people who are willing to help us go through, and also we must allow to receive help.
Showing emotions is normal, it allows you to express what you feel. In today's society, you're asked to be smooth all the time, not too much of any emotion. It's all fake.

This is sooooo spot on. I worked in mental health hospital. Love, environment - FOOD ***** Food , substance abuse, domestic violence no good role models of REAL everyday people , who you hang with no matter ethnicity, culture, & physical health Clean up your life mom& dad to empower your owns self , & children . Food, non **** foods, move your body every day , stay off drugs, meds , alcohol, weed, and other substances. Take care of yourself , sleep good. Every person can practice this & follow a virtuous life.
What is also tragic is that people who get sober esp in AA think they took every drink, that their alcoholism has nothing to do with all the trauma they suffered in childhood - and they never fully recover. They live in the lie that it’s their issue alone - they did it - and there is so much relief in knowing the metabolic truth.
Lots of people attest to a carnivore diet with lots of protein and fat with an improved mental health anxiety and depression in particular and improved hormones in females and males
Great questions!! Best use of Dr Christopher's time. This us the absolute best interview of Chris. As a mental health therapist I can confidently pass this on to folks to catch them up quickly to the status of where the field of mental health treatment is going based on the science.
The story on mental illness is rooted on a distorted society where the priorities are wrong, the most important thing to be able to change our health starts by changing society based only in money matters where jobs and money is much important than people s lives
Wow. I just got the connection between trauma and chronic stress and metabolic health . I have had lifelong depression and anxiety and my health has not been good for a very long time, now. Psych drugs made everything worse. Therapy has only been minimally effective but I'm starting to understand why from continue reading/studying the issue myself. A problem is that from inside those conditions, answers to questions are different than they would be outside of them. For example, on the depression questionnaire you always have to fill out, I have never indicated a serious issue with focusing but I'm actually realizing I have a very difficult time focusing and I didn't know it because I've never known anything different. And when you say you don't struggle with focus, they believe you because they understand focusing from THEIR perspective. There's a mismatch. And I think that applies to everything. Does anyone understand what I'm describing? Back to the metabolic connection, I have gained a bit of flab on my body, I have very low energy. Severe anxiety. Awful depression. Food and environmental sensitivities. Light sensitivity. And on and on. It's all connected and I get it now. Thanks to listening to this kind of information, including Joe Dispenza. Thanks to all of you.
Magnesium will help with the anxiety and depression and do red light therapy….u can get one from tractor supply for animals …it heats ….and helps heal injury inside the body…it helps depression because of the effects of the red light on the brain etc….blue light like we use everywhere now causes depression and insomnia etc…
Hi Shawn 😊 really looking forward to this 👍🙏❤️ first i am going to finish Dr Andrew Huberman's latest podcast with his dad which so far is a real treat 🤗 Dr Palmer was one of my favorite guests there and helped me view a lot of past issues in a whole other light then i did till then.. thinking that there is something wrong with you or that your fysiological processes are out of wack makes quite the difference.. Keep up the good work Shawn 👍💪❤️🙏
His book “Brain Energy” changed my entire life 2 years ago! Love Dr. Palmer and grateful for his revelations regarding mitochondrial and metabolic dysfunction. Please read this book or do a deep dive on Dr. Palmer and Dr. Ede (on RUclips) if you are suffering from any mental illness. Also the YT channel Metabolic Mind. Wonderful interview! Thx so much for helping get the word out! New subscriber to your channel.
And something psychiatrist never does is check your hormones before diagnosing mental illness. Always rule out hormones first. Thyroid imbalance can mimic depression, bi polar, anxiety, mood swings, cognitive imparment, mania, suicidal feelings. After tests and finding out my thyroid hormones were out i now know most of my sysmtons were due to that. Also read n reserched many psychiatry reports that patients with severe mental illness and not responsive to medication underwent thyroid tests and after correct diagnosis of thyroid dasfunction and treatment they were well and healthy. Also get your thyroid antibodies tested as they can be causing underlying thyroid issues that dont show in thyroid hormone tests!
I used to go to the gym 4days wk& walk,now i have physical issues that hav changed that. I cant walk someday,so i stay in bed a lot more than i shud, if im up moving around my pain is so intense i hav to go to bed. Its like i cant win. Cant work due to physical & mental issuess. Feeling defeated more& more. Having more bad days tgan good days lately & lost hope. 😢
Have you tired smoking cannabis gods plant? it saved me I have arthritis throughout my whole body from childhood abuse from my own family who abandon me . god bless you too my friend and I will be praying to god for you that you get better and back to your old self again with no pain anymore in gods&Jesus precious name I pray for you😇💫❤and hugs from me to you too my friend.I want you to know that I am here for you.
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. And there are more than one amino acid that has an antidepressive effect. You can find them in natural food or take them as a supplement.
I had post partum depression and took an SSRI for a short time. It was initiated by chemicals in my body and was relieved by chemicals. If I listened to you I would still be depressed and son's are 40 and 45.
I'm a psichiatrist and brain and neuroscientist. One thing bugs me although I support what he is saying. Since I personally evicted all health problems metabolically my mental health got bad. Same says research for people with stomach bypass operations, severe psychiological problems after loosing weight despite perfect health parameters. Also Europeans have same depression rates but far less obesity. He also should have explained how exactly trauma can change metabolism.
From what I have been told, Europeans continue to smoke as much as Americans did several decades ago. Americans no longer are able to smoke anywhere in public. Many people, like me, can't even smoke in our own homes. It's basically going from one bad habit to another.
Why is mental health deteriorating in the US? The insane wealth gap. The economic situation. We are all running scared, wondering how the hell we are gonna survive.
Dreams are actually really critical to psychological growth and can tell us much symbolically about our wakened state. Dreams and the unconscious serve a compensatory function to our out of balance ego state. Carl Jung was spot on about dreams and the unconscious
I used to take Zoloft but it just made me numb, so I was just numb and depressed. Then I started treating my adhd again and it was way better, I still get the woes every now and then.
My grandmother spent many years of her life in an insane asylum. My father inherited the illness, and he would lie in bed for weeks without eating. He didn't stop eating for hours, or for days, he literally stopped eating for several weeks at a time. I have inherited (yes, inherited) the same illness and I currently am able to work, take care of myself and other people, and I pay taxes. This is because of psychotropic medications. There is no way that any diet would prevent me from going several days at a time without needing to sleep. There are so many things that I do when I am psychotic, that a nutritious diet and exercise would even come close to preventing. People like this man, often do not discuss other problems that people with mental illnesses face. It is extremely likely that a mentally ill person will abuse drugs and alcohol because they are not getting treatment for their illness. One problem is the likelihood that people will abuse drugs and alcohol, if their illnesses are not treated. Many of the addicts on skid row, and on the streets, most likely would not be there if they had mental health treatment for an underlying mental illness. The most important thing that I would like to comment on, is how insensitive and unempathetic this is to people who are suicidal. People who are so depressed that they have suicidal ideation and attempts, require urgent care and treatment. Neglecting people's depression, and other mental illnesses, is only going to increase the prevalence of people eventually following through with committing suicide. A nutritious diet and exercise are helpful for everyone no matter what they experience. Unfortunately, it isn't going to help people that are in a mental health crisis.
The studies he says on trauma since you are little that you die 20 years before, he forgets to say that the 20 years before is the same that those who are under psychiatric drugs treatment most probably those studies are related to those on psychiatric treatments.
OMG … I want to work with this guy I have not been inspired enough to get going This gave me shivers of excitement … he’s bang on It is real … brain health is going down … and yes our environmental and food toxicity is increasing… our exercise decreasing … pharmaceutical consumption increases… of course our brain health is bad … how would it not impact the brain 🧠 itself an organ and part of our body … just because it sits on a pedestal of our spine … it doesn’t make it immune to how we treat our physical / emotional spiritual / thoughtful .. self
After quite a bit of introspection I have identified my biggest stressor, what stresses me all the time, is the fact that I have health issues, but still feel the pressure of having to function and work, to support myself financially and pay bills. This is an inescapable fact for which I see absolutely no solution (besides winning the lottery). How is one supposed to reduce stress that is caused by having to work and pay bills, despite not being healthy and needing time away from this society? I really see no way out.
I read a good book written by a professor specialised in obesity and in his opinion big factor in overweight are high calorie density foods and especially liquid calories as they dont contribute to the satiety.
"It's not a sign of good health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society" which is exactly what america has become and it has as much to do with greed, violence and consumerism as it does with metabolic health. Socio-economic and political insanity is just making it much worse
📍Taking omega-3 supplements made from wild salmon and omega-7 supplements together can help significantly for some people whose depressions have unexplainable causes.
And another thing... I've suffered from chronic pain the majority of my life. The only thing that has allowed me to lead an almost normal life are opioids. Now they've taken them, and replaced pain relief with an SSRI. NOT THE SAME THING. Yet i am unable to fight them Please help.
I suffer from depression and anxiety , I've had a rough upbringing and managed to deal with it until later in my adult life I was still very functional able to work two jobs always maintained my house kept clean took good care of my kids UNTIL I had a nervous breakdown due to low thyroid which I didn't know I had and had no idea what a low thyroid was . Since then I've suffered from depression and anxiety of course it's being managed with antidepressant but I still battle with the symptoms of depression and anxiety.. My thyroid functions at times go up and down but for the most part are regulated.. Is my depression and anxiety caused by my Thyroid problems or my childhood trauma or both? Because I'm on both Thyroid supplements and Depression and anxiety meds... This topic has really raised an eyebrow and making me question taking SSRS since I believe Thyroid problems correct me if I'm wrong are metabolic
I have hasimotos and lower thyroid. Thyroid does cause mood changes. What is the cause of your low thyroid? Is it autoimmune? Are you taking thyroid hormones?

Depression seems to be a cognitive distortion. Not a chemical imbalance in brain. It's symptoms might be elevated by inflammation and consumption of plant sterols while its possible to reduce symptoms of depression by carnivore version of ketogenic diet. It has a lot to do with gut health. Messed up biom can be precursor for depression.
Hey Tom Cruise exposed this 20 years ago in his heated Matt Lauer interview stating that diet and exercise are what people need, not pharmaceuticals. Have to agree with him there. 😬
Sorry but i dont agree yes it gives u more energy but it doesnt fix deppression. Personally nothing can cure it, its always there wired into your brain.
Inner voice is not an hallucinations. It is an inner voice/critic And minds eye is not a hallucinations it is your imagination. Hallucinations are different.
Its all about your ANS system.......disorders are usually resolved from getting unstuck from your sympathetic nervous system (flight or fight)....get into your parasympathetic nervous system (rest and repair) and get them regulated.....

I would tick all the ACE boxes and a lot more, at 66 having experienced every abuse for a whole lifetime, then by Christopher Palmer's 'reckoning' I should already not be here!?
I don't want to be critical or negative, because this doctor, and those like him are right, they have the solution, metabolic health is where the focus needs to be. From my own experience, and those of some of my family members, it's has absolutely been the key. But for many people it's a catch 22 situation. Like trying to fix a broken tool with it's own broken self. Some people have got to such a bad state of affairs that they are not even capable of hearing this kind of information, let alone being able to take steps to fix it. I don't know what the solution is for those kinds of people, and it's not going to come through any kind of government or business avenue, because there's no money to be made from helping people through diet and lifestyle changes. There's a group of people who desperately need help, for all kinds of health problems, but they are too sick to jump through all the hoops to access that help. It's as if the system is set up to fail those people who most desperately need the help.
Great information thx but just want to throw some suspicion on the study that sjowed how much higher the correlation was with poor nutrition n poor mental health as people with poor nutrition are more likely than those without to have bigher stress levels n ACES scores. It's not to day that everyone who grows up in a more wealthy or upper class family wont have suffered any of the ACES issues as physical n sexual abuse is still a thing even in those houses as can be addiction but not to the degree you will find them in poorer communities where you would definitely find more with the mental health issues, addiction m jail and just overall stress that poorer people feel based on always stressing over money n more fear based on where they live..
First off I LOVE Dr. Palmer however I have to laugh ironically at the part about billionaires making money off of suffering. He is part of Metabolic Mind, a not for profit researching metabolic psychiatry, which is funded by the Baszucki family who has made undoubtedly a large some of money from Roblox which has been reported to be a hellscape for children and grooming of children to put it mildly.
nobody ever told me that I could take a pill and then I would stop being depressed. If you don't have a mild depression you have to go to therapy and find the right antidepressant for you. I didn't listen to everything you were talking about but the comments are the worst. I think the Title of the Video is misleading and maybe I'm too offended by it. But I'm so thankful that therapy and antidepressants helped me. People talking about "god cured my depression" or "diet and sports safed me" just makes me angry 'cause it's disrespectful to people with severe depression. I'm happy for you that you found your way but it's not the whole truth about depression. Also mild depression can just go away without changing anything.
29:44 I mean no offense, but all of those solutions are out of reach for many suffering - especially if they’re children trapped in a traumatic environment 💔
43:06 did this guy just say “Africans were dying of starvation“ that threw me off guard we were not starving. We’re doing just fine before we were invaded smdh before some of them were influenced to eat these weird food like substances that you guys consume they HUNTED they were active
They have donation boxes all over the US collecting money for the starving children of Africa….since I was a kid…they really push for donations out of Catholic schools and families…we are told that all other countries are starving and oppressed by their gov and our donations are what keep them alive …
Ive eead some old doctors like Paracelzus and others, they called this issue 'melancholy', also some catholic old teachings. I will write this in hope that somebody will find this helpful. Purity and chastity are esentialls, many brain damages happens beacuse parents were nasty, like they mastrubated, or the worst-they had sex while woman was pregnant, also if they had diseases on their sex organs and other stuff... They noted that if man in alchocolized state slept with his pregnant wofe that he could kill the baby actually. Then, i think depression is due to possible SA on children so when they are adults they need to heal from that hurt... My opinion is that people who have depression are often those who are learned to give themselves out, caregivers, and although it seems like they are wothless they people give so much love and energy that they forgot themselves completely and they become a problem. Also, I think depressikn cleanse the soul as a suffering, but we should fast and pray so that we escape depression and that we cleanse the bad influence our ancestors gave to us.
I don’t get what he’s saying. Whether it’s caused by lifestyle or not, depression is still the result of a lack of serotonine. Of course, serotonin needs good nutrients and a healthy metabolism to be produced. However, external factors causing anxiety will lower serotonin production. A stressful workplace for example. Death of a relative. In women, hormones play a huge role too. All this to say, of course it’s a chemical imbalance. Diet, exercise, healthy relationships have an impact on it… but even with the healthiest lifestyle, some life events will trigger depression.
Depressed people often binge on food which are not entirely good for them . The Depressed 😔 always seek “instant gratification” and it’s part of a cycle 🔁 they constantly repeat

I will say, my major depression & anxiety along with the suicide attempts showed up at 42 after losing my engineering career. Tried every drug available & had horrible side effects. Turned out, I left my bad marriage after 13 years of depression (33 years of marriage) & my depression went away. Had outstanding therapy to handle & process what I had dealt with & for the last 17 years I have never been happier & no depression or anxiety since the day I left. My psychiatrist & psychologists during those 13 years never considered situation. They just wanted to throw drugs at it which made it worse not bettet. Life is a challenge, I left the marriage with nothing but my inheritance from my mom after she died....life is truly good now. Depression, anxiety, Anorexia & PTSD.....all healed
So so proud of you.
Psychologist can’t prescribe drugs
Thank you for speaking out about Ensure. I am a nurse, and I educated each patient on the list of chemicals and high sugar content. Also, a coke on each patients food tray.
Unbelievable! Thank you so much for sharing your experience on this. 🙏🏽
It’s wild with these hospitals and rehabs put in front of their patients and then they wonder why they’re not doing well - sugary food - toxic chemicals. smh
They want to kill their patients or at least keep them sick so big pharma makes more money disgusting
From aged 23 I have had a life of addictions. I had been taking high dose antidepressants for over 25 years and always thought that I wasn’t depressed, but instead I had high anxiety, since I was a very anxious child and teenager. I was living a life of no tears and no enthusiasm for anything, just ticking off the days. Due to years of gut problems, in 2020 I changed my diet to ‘high fat animal based’ and once I gained pain free eating I decided to wean myself off of the SSRI’s. It’s now over 18 months since I finished with the pills and now I am experiencing the same high anxiety again! I have come to realise that I am an ‘Adult child of an alcoholic and dysfunctional family’. Drugs could never fix me. I have begun an ACA 12 Step program and adopted a Higher Power as the parent I never had.
Add high doses of vitamin D3 like 10 000 IU per kg of body weight + vit K2. Also Niacin helps.
I admire Dr. Palmer so much.
What a wonderful Dr. I’ve been on at least 15 different medications for my depression symptoms over the years. It’s very disheartening. We need to focus more research into this epidemic. A happy and healthy population is a more productive population. Stress from living in our society and the poor physical health is the number one cause in my belief. The pressure on people today is not what our brains are designed to withstand. ❤
Just about tried it all...nothing worked...gave it to the Lord... best cure ever.
Amen here too! Jesus is Lord
❤🙏😊
Amen
Amen it's really nice to meet you,
Have you tried Keto diet? And reduce electrosmog around you, maybe is a hormonal imbalance can be look with natural medicinal plants
Sorry, but after a brain injury I had clinical depression for yrs. Finally found one anti-depressant that worked. I have little depression here and there but nothing like I use to experience. I can't tell you how bad it use to be, like walking through molasses. Vitamins, exercise, are good too.
Apologies are not needed for sharing your personal experience.
Biking exercise became a really freeing experience in healing from traumatic brain injury and physical mobility issues. I love the exercise benefits for mental wellness too
Yes but fortunately it worked for you but others in the same predicament it may not have.
Obviously there have to be benefits from antidepressants for some people, some of the time, otherwise they wouldn't have become some of the most sold and prescribed pharmaceuticals in the world. So you don't have to defend yourself for having found something that helped you. The problem is, that for others, like me, they end up causing more harm and suffering in the long term, and often, when being given the option to try these things, we are not told about the risks, or told of potential negative outcomes and problems with stopping them. I wish I had known about alternatives to SSRIs before I was told that I have a chemical imbalance and that a daily pill would fix me. Not only didn't it fix me, it made the course of my life 100 times worse, which 30 years later, I'm still trying to dig myself out from, thankfully with the help of doctors like this. Adopting a ketogenic diet, and then going mostly carnivore has been key for me, to help with the damage done by long term antidepressant use and the underlying anxiety which got me on them in the first place.
TBI and Covid and post-surgical depression may all be different in source and therapy.
@12:42 it is not a freakin epidemic! It's just humans being humans, struggling with life problems for which they too often don't have any support because people don't trust nor support each other (hence loneliness) plus the fact that society doesn't give a F about individuals! It's not a freakin epidemic! People are having normal reactions to abnormal situations! When my dog died i was prescribed anti-depressants because i wasn't supposed to cry! Really now. If there's any epidemic then it's an epidemic of carelessness, coruption and ignorance.
Could it be that the attachment to people or situations cause depression? I observed my father's behaviour after my mom died.Lots of alchocol and work.Just escaping reality.
@markozivkovic7409 Attachment to people or situations is normal to both humans and animals. Only psychopats do not emotionally attach to others because they perceive people as disposable objects. Also, it is normal to feel grief when losing someone we're emotionally attached to, but when this sadness is for too long it becomes chronic and we call it depression. We are habitual living beings so it may feel difficult to go through such changes. But resorting to alchohol and drugs and such, is a very destructive way to cope with reality. It would be ideal to have close people who help us go through such difficult times, either relatives, friends or therapists. Even mild anti-depressants could by far be a better option than alcohol because alcohol is highly destructive to just about any organ in the body. Thus, two aspects are important here: people who are willing to help us go through, and also we must allow to receive help.
Showing emotions is normal, it allows you to express what you feel. In today's society, you're asked to be smooth all the time, not too much of any emotion. It's all fake.

Increasing endorphins, financial security, proper food and diet, and love from significant others helps with boosting depressive moods.
This is sooooo spot on. I worked in mental health hospital. Love, environment - FOOD
***** Food , substance abuse, domestic violence no good role models of REAL everyday people , who you hang with no matter ethnicity, culture, & physical health
Clean up your life mom& dad to empower your owns self , & children .
Food, non **** foods, move your body every day , stay off drugs, meds , alcohol, weed, and other substances. Take care of yourself , sleep good. Every person can practice this & follow a virtuous life.
Choose your people that better u
What is also tragic is that people who get sober esp in AA think they took every drink, that their alcoholism has nothing to do with all the trauma they suffered in childhood - and they never fully recover. They live in the lie that it’s their issue alone - they did it - and there is so much relief in knowing the metabolic truth.
Lots of people attest to a carnivore diet with lots of protein and fat with an improved mental health anxiety and depression in particular and improved hormones in females and males
true
Yep
Working for me !
Love it and feel
Awesome
Absolutely!
Great questions!! Best use of Dr Christopher's time. This us the absolute best interview of Chris. As a mental health therapist I can confidently pass this on to folks to catch them up quickly to the status of where the field of mental health treatment is going based on the science.
Dr Palmer is absolutely BRILLIANT!
Thank you very much for this interview 🙏
Thank you, Shawn and Dr. Palmer. Heroes like you will help to change this sick society. Beautiful podcast!
Grateful for you! 🙏🏽
The story on mental illness is rooted on a distorted society where the priorities are wrong, the most important thing to be able to change our health starts by changing society based only in money matters where jobs and money is much important than people s lives
I keep doing positive things with negative thoughts..one day at a time… it’s been working for 35 yrs …. LET Go ❤
Great interview! Thank you❣️
Wow. I just got the connection between trauma and chronic stress and metabolic health . I have had lifelong depression and anxiety and my health has not been good for a very long time, now. Psych drugs made everything worse. Therapy has only been minimally effective but I'm starting to understand why from continue reading/studying the issue myself. A problem is that from inside those conditions, answers to questions are different than they would be outside of them. For example, on the depression questionnaire you always have to fill out, I have never indicated a serious issue with focusing but I'm actually realizing I have a very difficult time focusing and I didn't know it because I've never known anything different. And when you say you don't struggle with focus, they believe you because they understand focusing from THEIR perspective. There's a mismatch. And I think that applies to everything. Does anyone understand what I'm describing? Back to the metabolic connection, I have gained a bit of flab on my body, I have very low energy. Severe anxiety. Awful depression. Food and environmental sensitivities. Light sensitivity. And on and on. It's all connected and I get it now. Thanks to listening to this kind of information, including Joe Dispenza. Thanks to all of you.
Magnesium will help with the anxiety and depression and do red light therapy….u can get one from tractor supply for animals …it heats ….and helps heal injury inside the body…it helps depression because of the effects of the red light on the brain etc….blue light like we use everywhere now causes depression and insomnia etc…
I love Dr. Palmer.
I thought that was just brilliant. I love common sense science that really helps 👏
Excellent stuff! Will share and read the book ❤
Appreciate you! 🙏🏽
Commenting for your algo. I can tell you that this man's methods work.
You know it matters! Thank you!
Spot on , I was just starting to study this, with metabolic health causing so much more illness
Why does no one suggest it's society?
Can you be more specific?
Can you be more specific?
@gtm5650 The question is why is everyone depressed?
Dr. Palmer did.
Alice Miller does in her books.
Hi Shawn 😊 really looking forward to this 👍🙏❤️ first i am going to finish Dr Andrew Huberman's latest podcast with his dad which so far is a real treat 🤗 Dr Palmer was one of my favorite guests there and helped me view a lot of past issues in a whole other light then i did till then.. thinking that there is something wrong with you or that your fysiological processes are out of wack makes quite the difference.. Keep up the good work Shawn 👍💪❤️🙏
His book “Brain Energy” changed my entire life 2 years ago! Love Dr. Palmer and grateful for his revelations regarding mitochondrial and metabolic dysfunction.
Please read this book or do a deep dive on Dr. Palmer and Dr. Ede (on RUclips) if you are suffering from any mental illness. Also the YT channel Metabolic Mind.
Wonderful interview! Thx so much for helping get the word out! New subscriber to your channel.
Excellent information well explained. Thank you.
So true taking responsibility for your own life
And something psychiatrist never does is check your hormones before diagnosing mental illness. Always rule out hormones first. Thyroid imbalance can mimic depression, bi polar, anxiety, mood swings, cognitive imparment, mania, suicidal feelings.
After tests and finding out my thyroid hormones were out i now know most of my sysmtons were due to that. Also read n reserched many psychiatry reports that patients with severe mental illness and not responsive to medication underwent thyroid tests and after correct diagnosis of thyroid dasfunction and treatment they were well and healthy.
Also get your thyroid antibodies tested as they can be causing underlying thyroid issues that dont show in thyroid hormone tests!
I used to go to the gym 4days wk& walk,now i have physical issues that hav changed that. I cant walk someday,so i stay in bed a lot more than i shud, if im up moving around my pain is so intense i hav to go to bed. Its like i cant win. Cant work due to physical & mental issuess. Feeling defeated more& more. Having more bad days tgan good days lately & lost hope. 😢
Can you swim?
@@pieter9058. I doubt someone who barely can walk, is gonna be able to swim.
Yes swimming is the ultimate sport,exercise,and therapy plus it aids greater mobility.! The exercise of champions 😊
Have you tired smoking cannabis gods plant? it saved me I have arthritis throughout my whole body from childhood abuse from my own family who abandon me . god bless you too my friend and I will be praying to god for you that you get better and back to your old self again with no pain anymore in gods&Jesus precious name I pray for you😇💫❤and hugs from me to you too my friend.I want you to know that I am here for you.
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. And there are more than one amino acid that has an antidepressive effect. You can find them in natural food or take them as a supplement.
I had post partum depression and took an SSRI for a short time. It was initiated by chemicals in my body and was relieved by chemicals. If I listened to you I would still be depressed and son's are 40 and 45.
I'm a psichiatrist and brain and neuroscientist. One thing bugs me although I support what he is saying. Since I personally evicted all health problems metabolically my mental health got bad. Same says research for people with stomach bypass operations, severe psychiological problems after loosing weight despite perfect health parameters. Also Europeans have same depression rates but far less obesity. He also should have explained how exactly trauma can change metabolism.
From what I have been told, Europeans continue to smoke as much as Americans did several decades ago. Americans no longer are able to smoke anywhere in public. Many people, like me, can't even smoke in our own homes. It's basically going from one bad habit to another.
"What we call food" there is a phrase that, though short, explains a lot.
Brilliant thank you for the truth
Why is mental health deteriorating in the US? The insane wealth gap. The economic situation. We are all running scared, wondering how the hell we are gonna survive.
Excellent discussion. Thank you.
Quitting alcohol may require longer than three months for your system to return to a better baseline. I recommend a year.
Same here
Dreams are actually really critical to psychological growth and can tell us much symbolically about our wakened state. Dreams and the unconscious serve a compensatory function to our out of balance ego state. Carl Jung was spot on about dreams and the unconscious
What alternative to ensure is there for people who can’t eat? Thank you so much!
Protein powder shakes , Vits , healthy smoothies , fresh veggie juices , etc
Healthy protein shakes , fresh veggie juices , fresh fruit smoothies , Vitamins ,
Yes.
Carnivore diet
I used to take Zoloft but it just made me numb, so I was just numb and depressed. Then I started treating my adhd again and it was way better, I still get the woes every now and then.
in which way did you started treating your adhd?
My grandmother spent many years of her life in an insane asylum. My father inherited the illness, and he would lie in bed for weeks without eating. He didn't stop eating for hours, or for days, he literally stopped eating for several weeks at a time. I have inherited (yes, inherited) the same illness and I currently am able to work, take care of myself and other people, and I pay taxes. This is because of psychotropic medications. There is no way that any diet would prevent me from going several days at a time without needing to sleep. There are so many things that I do when I am psychotic, that a nutritious diet and exercise would even come close to preventing. People like this man, often do not discuss other problems that people with mental illnesses face. It is extremely likely that a mentally ill person will abuse drugs and alcohol because they are not getting treatment for their illness. One problem is the likelihood that people will abuse drugs and alcohol, if their illnesses are not treated. Many of the addicts on skid row, and on the streets, most likely would not be there if they had mental health treatment for an underlying mental illness. The most important thing that I would like to comment on, is how insensitive and unempathetic this is to people who are suicidal. People who are so depressed that they have suicidal ideation and attempts, require urgent care and treatment. Neglecting people's depression, and other mental illnesses, is only going to increase the prevalence of people eventually following through with committing suicide. A nutritious diet and exercise are helpful for everyone no matter what they experience. Unfortunately, it isn't going to help people that are in a mental health crisis.
Those remind me on masonic curses, maybe your cousins are masons, I think fasting and Bible and praying should help a lot.
There is also a thing called TMS. Transcranical magnetic stimulation. Also "transcranical photobiomodulation" is a treatment to consider.
Lengthening the shelf life of food ironically shortens the actual life of people AND pets too
The studies he says on trauma since you are little that you die 20 years before, he forgets to say that the 20 years before is the same that those who are under psychiatric drugs treatment most probably those studies are related to those on psychiatric treatments.
Great discussion
I love this guys character
What about weight gain that is caused by the medication that shuts off the hormone that tells your brain you are full? How do you overcome that?
OMG … I want to work with this guy
I have not been inspired enough to get going
This gave me shivers of excitement … he’s bang on
It is real … brain health is going down … and yes our environmental and food toxicity is increasing… our exercise decreasing … pharmaceutical consumption increases… of course our brain health is bad … how would it not impact the brain 🧠 itself an organ and part of our body … just because it sits on a pedestal of our spine … it doesn’t make it immune to how we treat our physical / emotional spiritual / thoughtful .. self
After quite a bit of introspection I have identified my biggest stressor, what stresses me all the time, is the fact that I have health issues, but still feel the pressure of having to function and work, to support myself financially and pay bills.
This is an inescapable fact for which I see absolutely no solution (besides winning the lottery). How is one supposed to reduce stress that is caused by having to work and pay bills, despite not being healthy and needing time away from this society? I really see no way out.
Along with billions of other people all across this globe
I read a good book written by a professor specialised in obesity and in his opinion big factor in overweight are high calorie density foods and especially liquid calories as they dont contribute to the satiety.
"It's not a sign of good health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society" which is exactly what america has become and it has as much to do with greed, violence and consumerism as it does with metabolic health. Socio-economic and political insanity is just making it much worse
📍Taking omega-3 supplements made from wild salmon and omega-7 supplements together can help significantly for some people whose depressions have unexplainable causes.
Thank you ❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤❤thank you
And another thing...
I've suffered from chronic pain the majority of my life. The only thing that has allowed me to lead an almost normal life are opioids. Now they've taken them, and replaced pain relief with an SSRI. NOT THE SAME THING. Yet i am unable to fight them
Please help.
I suffer from depression and anxiety , I've had a rough upbringing and managed to deal with it until later in my adult life I was still very functional able to work two jobs always maintained my house kept clean took good care of my kids UNTIL I had a nervous breakdown due to low thyroid which I didn't know I had and had no idea what a low thyroid was .
Since then I've suffered from depression and anxiety of course it's being managed with antidepressant but I still battle with the symptoms of depression and anxiety.. My thyroid functions at times go up and down but for the most part are regulated..
Is my depression and anxiety caused by my Thyroid problems or my childhood trauma or both?
Because I'm on both Thyroid supplements and Depression and anxiety meds...
This topic has really raised an eyebrow and making me question taking SSRS since I believe Thyroid problems correct me if I'm wrong are metabolic
I have hasimotos and lower thyroid. Thyroid does cause mood changes. What is the cause of your low thyroid? Is it autoimmune? Are you taking thyroid hormones?
Take care
Dr Gabor Mate first made this phenomenon known to mankind
I think you could classify sugar as one of those substances.
they put up a 5 g antenna 300 yards 80 ft high from my home combines with high electrical towers
a high pitched noise frequency went on in my yard house -Two weeks later I was ill, no energy, loss of sleep, then floaters in my eyes , on and on
I went to the hoa they said tough we don’t care
Working w district rep now over two years
Exhausted from the politics
And literally from noise emfs RF’s it’s real!’ They are now saying they move it to another place - they know it’s terrible for the brain no sleep over stimulation of cells
Major organizations are admitting 5G is not safe. Smh
I have hypothyroidism and I weigh between 115-125 lbs but suffer depression anxiety and PTSD
Have you tried emdr for ptsd?
Depression seems to be a cognitive distortion. Not a chemical imbalance in brain. It's symptoms might be elevated by inflammation and consumption of plant sterols while its possible to reduce symptoms of depression by carnivore version of ketogenic diet. It has a lot to do with gut health. Messed up biom can be precursor for depression.
The direct cause is why would someone overeat? Video skipped
Hey Tom Cruise exposed this 20 years ago in his heated Matt Lauer interview stating that diet and exercise are what people need, not pharmaceuticals. Have to agree with him there. 😬
Sorry but i dont agree yes it gives u more energy but it doesnt fix deppression. Personally nothing can cure it, its always there wired into your brain.
MAHA! ❤
Inner voice/critic and mind's eye are hallucination
Inner voice is not an hallucinations. It is an inner voice/critic
And minds eye is not a hallucinations it is your imagination. Hallucinations are different.
Sugar rots the brain, butter blows up your gallbladder, salt cardiology. Milk stomach esophageal. Etc..
Its all about your ANS system.......disorders are usually resolved from getting unstuck from your sympathetic nervous system (flight or fight)....get into your parasympathetic nervous system (rest and repair) and get them regulated.....
but how
I read a book called niacin how large doses heals schizophrenia?
The Lord God is the greatest healer, first and foremost ask him for help , guidance and then after . I think I may be being guided in getting this book 👍🏻
No god isn't the greatest healer. Many are not healed who turn to God, that is a fact!
I would tick all the ACE boxes and a lot more, at 66 having experienced every abuse for a whole lifetime, then by Christopher Palmer's 'reckoning' I should already not be here!?
The only time i felt a chemical imbalance is comming off of these nightmare meds.
I don't want to be critical or negative, because this doctor, and those like him are right, they have the solution, metabolic health is where the focus needs to be. From my own experience, and those of some of my family members, it's has absolutely been the key. But for many people it's a catch 22 situation. Like trying to fix a broken tool with it's own broken self. Some people have got to such a bad state of affairs that they are not even capable of hearing this kind of information, let alone being able to take steps to fix it. I don't know what the solution is for those kinds of people, and it's not going to come through any kind of government or business avenue, because there's no money to be made from helping people through diet and lifestyle changes. There's a group of people who desperately need help, for all kinds of health problems, but they are too sick to jump through all the hoops to access that help. It's as if the system is set up to fail those people who most desperately need the help.
We never ever talk about wealth V poverty
I really don't know how it can be so difficult to fix, should be able to do something for $800/hour
Great information thx but just want to throw some suspicion on the study that sjowed how much higher the correlation was with poor nutrition n poor mental health as people with poor nutrition are more likely than those without to have bigher stress levels n ACES scores. It's not to day that everyone who grows up in a more wealthy or upper class family wont have suffered any of the ACES issues as physical n sexual abuse is still a thing even in those houses as can be addiction but not to the degree you will find them in poorer communities where you would definitely find more with the mental health issues, addiction m jail and just overall stress that poorer people feel based on always stressing over money n more fear based on where they live..
I wish the interviewer would dress more formally. He's not a kid anymore.
It's mostly lifestyle and environment.
Pills do not work and what we've been lied to for years?
First off I LOVE Dr. Palmer however I have to laugh ironically at the part about billionaires making money off of suffering. He is part of Metabolic Mind, a not for profit researching metabolic psychiatry, which is funded by the Baszucki family who has made undoubtedly a large some of money from Roblox which has been reported to be a hellscape for children and grooming of children to put it mildly.
Tell me more about Roblox?
People eat more ultraprocessed food because they are too depressed to cook.
Is a bipolar brain different as in how it’s made?
nobody ever told me that I could take a pill and then I would stop being depressed. If you don't have a mild depression you have to go to therapy and find the right antidepressant for you.
I didn't listen to everything you were talking about but the comments are the worst. I think the Title of the Video is misleading and maybe I'm too offended by it. But I'm so thankful that therapy and antidepressants helped me.
People talking about "god cured my depression" or "diet and sports safed me" just makes me angry 'cause it's disrespectful to people with severe depression.
I'm happy for you that you found your way but it's not the whole truth about depression. Also mild depression can just go away without changing anything.
29:44 I mean no offense, but all of those solutions are out of reach for many suffering - especially if they’re children trapped in a traumatic environment 💔
Gabor Mate' has much to offer relevant to all this
It’s more the big pharma things and physical problems, tight shoulders mainly.
43:06 did this guy just say “Africans were dying of starvation“ that threw me off guard we were not starving.
We’re doing just fine before we were invaded smdh before some of them were influenced to eat these weird food like substances that you guys consume they HUNTED they were active
Colonizer mentality is everywhere- fully embedded in the culture
They have donation boxes all over the US collecting money for the starving children of Africa….since I was a kid…they really push for donations out of Catholic schools and families…we are told that all other countries are starving and oppressed by their gov and our donations are what keep them alive …
no, you were starving and alot of Africans till this day are still starving.
Sorry brother, fats are the key macro for building amino acids, which are the building blocks of hormones.
Very true 🤜🤛
Ive eead some old doctors like Paracelzus and others, they called this issue 'melancholy', also some catholic old teachings.
I will write this in hope that somebody will find this helpful.
Purity and chastity are esentialls, many brain damages happens beacuse parents were nasty, like they mastrubated, or the worst-they had sex while woman was pregnant, also if they had diseases on their sex organs and other stuff...
They noted that if man in alchocolized state slept with his pregnant wofe that he could kill the baby actually.
Then, i think depression is due to possible SA on children so when they are adults they need to heal from that hurt...
My opinion is that people who have depression are often those who are learned to give themselves out, caregivers, and although it seems like they are wothless they people give so much love and energy that they forgot themselves completely and they become a problem.
Also, I think depressikn cleanse the soul as a suffering, but we should fast and pray so that we escape depression and that we cleanse the bad influence our ancestors gave to us.
Change nutrition
Ok, but drop the stupid cap
41:06
I don’t get what he’s saying. Whether it’s caused by lifestyle or not, depression is still the result of a lack of serotonine. Of course, serotonin needs good nutrients and a healthy metabolism to be produced. However, external factors causing anxiety will lower serotonin production. A stressful workplace for example. Death of a relative. In women, hormones play a huge role too. All this to say, of course it’s a chemical imbalance. Diet, exercise, healthy relationships have an impact on it… but even with the healthiest lifestyle, some life events will trigger depression.
19:37 Do depressed people become fat? Are rates higher in obese people?
Depressed people often binge on food which are not entirely good for them . The Depressed 😔 always seek “instant gratification” and it’s part of a cycle 🔁 they constantly repeat
