This is a Doctor TRAVELS video (is that a thing?). I'm in Rome, pretending for a five minutes that I'm in ancient Rome. I love mental health, I love medical history and I love travel and I'm combining these in one video looking at five absolutely unbelievable but real treatments for mental illness that were held by the Ancient Romans off of ye olden days. Let me know if and which ones stand out to you.

I really appreciate the time taken at the outset to highlight Hippocrates's positive contributions to medicine! I feel that too often ancient medical practitioners like Hippocrates and Galen are chided or derided for their development and adherence to the humoral theory rather than acknowledged for their advancements to the field of medicine at a time when medical practice relied heavily on mysticism and divination.
The fact that I'm epileptic and love being a vampire for Halloween every year ... The gladiator blood sounds about right 😂😂
Music treatment sounds lovely, the others not so much.... Enjoy Rome (or I hope you enjoyed it, if you're already back), I have great memories of my visit there a few years ago
This was so interesting! I hope you have a nice trip!
Blood is a GI agitator, so if you think about it #5 is really also snowballing itself in with #2. Double treatment for doubly good health, you get all the benefits of both treatments in one! /s
🤢
Wowza
would definitely be interesting to see you watch Dexter. You'd have a field day with that show lmao
I loved this, the old beliefs are amazing. Makes me wonder what or rather, which of our commonly held beliefs in the now will be disproven in the future. Could you do more chicago Med reviews please.
I wonder if blood-letting took off because the first guy they did it on just happened to have haemochromatosis, and they were like 'oh, well that worked!'
I saw the title... and for some reason IMMEDIATELY thought of Fred Flintstone getting hit in the head with a frying pan. 😂
Holy shit, this was epic 😄 so interesting. Thank you!
wonder what people will think in a hundred years or so of how we treat mental illness now
wow, I've never heard of the gladiator blood one before. Wild, but I can even see how it made sense according to the logic at that time. Like getting some"thing" of that super-heroness to upgrade yourself. (Just had to think of people eating placentas's (because of believed but unproven magical health benefits) - today. Not much better I guess. 🤔)
Also I did not imagine musical therapy to go back this far. DEFINITELY one of more gentle treatments.
Thanks for the interesting video.
Keep enjoying your time in Rome!
as a musician who graduate about 5 years ago who has an interest in psychology this fanrcinates me how ever its pronounce (fr-i-j-ee-an) rather than (fer-i-j-ee-an) think of it as "h" a silent letter
Edit: there are other modes that are associated Like Ionian Which is the Majer scale of (c), dorian (d), phrygian (e), lydian (f), mixolidian (g), aolean (a) known as the minor scale and locrian (b). to tell which is minor and minor think of the modes in sequence Maj, min, min, Maj, Maj, min, Dimminish.
i LOVE these videos or this series like the blot test and schizo video amazing information, have fun out there be safe!
Hello dr Elliot
I don’t know if I’ve commented this before
I am a 15 year old with intrusive thoughts. Usually on religious subjects. I see images and have thoughts that I wish I didn’t. It’s starting to affect my life . I cannot focus In class because I’m to busy fighting my thoughts. My friends and family think I’m pushing them away and I don’t know how to tell them that from the second I wake up I fight my thoughts and images . I want to be normal again . I’ve tried to just ignore the thoughts but they keep getting stronger. My mind is never quiet . There is always something on my mind and I hate it . I really want to get help but i don’t know how to approach my family. How do I tell them I am not comfortable in my own mind.
No electric fish to head mention????? Romans had some good intuition too.
first time first!
Congrats!
3:29 my coworker in 2019 had a trip booked to a country in Europe (can't remember which one, just remember it was east of Germany and not Poland or Ukraine). He was going for hydrotherapy. Was convinced if he didn't eat for 7 days and just received hydrotherapy, he would have his body and mind "balanced out". Luckily? COVID happened so his trip was cancelled.
Number 3 might sort-of work, just not for the reasons given at the time. There's increasing interest in whether cold water exposure can boost mental health today.
