I LOVE Johann Hari!! He is incredible and I have read Lost Connections! Brilliant guest! Recover well Davina!! Thinking of you and your family at this time!
Thank you so much 🙏 This is so resonant My own journey has been a real slog, trying to get to the bottom of who I am, what I'm struggling with, getting towards understanding, healing and growing. The struggle seems all the harder when searching for help from flawed systems like NHS and DSM. Not that I blame the individuals I can't wait to watch more and read your books
Here we go again.... WOW given me so much to think about again. Have actually purchased this book. I will read it and probably pass it around to my friends who may need it. It starts here with you. And oh my gawd I'm changing so many things lol xx love you and keep safe. Karen x
Oh my goodness Davina I'm so sorry i never mentioned anything about the surgery you had, i only found out yesterday on the Internet and immediately didn't believe it. I dont believe everything i read but im over the moon it was nothing serious 😢....... tears of joy! ❤ Take it easy, get better soon and SPOIL her Michael she's a diamond, you're my yellow person in this world Davina .... in fact just be her yellow person Michael its better than any spoiling in the world, that and LOVE ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I think we experience traumas as babies/kids and subconsciously something happens (not sure what creates the difference) where it (the ego) chooses a coping behaviour-within those behaviours traits are practiced (traits that include EVERY toxic trait available to humans). The clearest of the ‘disorders’ for me are addiction and narcissism. The addicts I have found in experience find the traits that come with the others very abnormal (subconsciously) so they choose to numb (to varying degrees of each addiction). Out of all the ‘disorders’ that are so common they are labelled today(IMO) addiction is the safest (to the soul/spirit) to have. Anyone that understands this so far will know my vibe. When addicts hit that rock bottom and get ‘reborn’ they have the chance of a clean slate(because they numbed the egos need to create toxic traits). Pure ‘disorders’ (without any addiction traits are way way harder to ‘cure’ than any addiction. Because an addict IS easier (sometimes impossible unfortunately) to connect to because they numbed a portion of that ego(it didn’t have a chance to flourish). A narcissist, psychopath, peaodophile, schizophrenic is harder to ‘cure’. I also think ND people are trying to communicate to each other(like mushrooms and plants). I’m not on meds, I have beaten my food addiction, I’m working on my codependency. I have ‘ADHD’. ❤
There are hobs(environments) out there just ripe for the challenged toxic ego. The holocaust! Caring environments, schools, sex industry, politics(high up protected roles). And it perpetuates inside a toxic vortex. It sure beats clinical depression 🤨(stereotyped ‘no life at all’).
11:07 minutes in I had an epiphany. How bizarre that after years of antidepressants and therapy everything became clear 😅 How I move forward is the challenge 😁 Wishing you love and healing Davina!
Absolutely love this podcast davina you are amazing and this conversation is just so true and would listen to you both all day so interesting and informative ❤
Being ina state of flight or fight and in a stressed state changes your brain chemistry,fast foods and pollution also but alot of it is about loss of community,belonging and stressful fast paced life and individualism.Also lack of access to nature and green spaces,UK is one of the most nature depleted places on earth and there are places called blue zones where people live happier,longer,healthier lives and its mostly to do with good wholefood diet,community and a slower pace of life.UK is a very lonely place and we do not value community and relational times in the way other more non western cultures do,all this has been shown to lead to more depression and stress related diseases.
Thank you for this podcast Davina, you're my hero, I'm hurting so much and I learned from this that addiction comes from pain mine would be valium and cocaine but quite complex as I suffer with crippling anxiety and panic on a daily basis, have done since about age 11/12 no reason why! Ended up spending my 15th birthday in a treatment centre for Anorexia, wrong centre done me no good at all. The only reason I ever picked up a drug is because I could not cope, secondary school was devastating for me I ended up leaving in Yr 2. I'm an intelligent woman and I often wonder how much I could have achieved otherwise DAVINA I TRULY APPRECIATE , RESPECT AND ADORE YOU. I REALLY WANT ONE OF YOUR SQUEEZY HUGS 😢❤❤❤❤❤❤ Ps NEXT DAY I didn't want to txt it at the time but i was waiting anxiously for the person i buy my valium from, sitting in a petrol station with a cup of tea watching this amazing podcast yesterday. I really just want to be better so much 😢❤❤❤ I LOVE you Davina, you're my hero Keep the positivity coming you're a true inspiration ❤❤❤❤❤
oh My good to two both just spoke to my heart I’ve had a life of many traumas and WOW just love Johan the way he explains and Davina well as always WoW thank you
Love 🥰 this guy ten fold/ he speaks for the next coming / what’s troubling for me is my ancestors are kinda ‘catching’ up 🆙 on what info could’ve been used if they’d had the info …. If DAILY NEWS … in those days was to perpetuate a social media for the people 🎉- isn’t this just regurgitating 🤮
People don’t want to go deep, unpack something that’s complicated or do the uncomfortable that’s necessary to deal with the areas that need airing. Religion muffles it, pills/drugs/alcohol do too….quick fixes are becoming too common.
Its not that people don't want to...its often they don't know how to or it feels scary or overwhelming for many.Also our doctors and healthservice and culture in general does not like to go deep,we are not encouraged to self reflect,its not taught it schools,many are busy and ina state of flight/fight,lets just get on with it and many feel like they are failures for not "coping"for not being able to just "get on with it". There is alot of judgement and not alot of encouragement for people to look for alternatives.fast food,alcohol,shopping,social media,tv etc...we have lot of things which tell us not to look too deeply,to consume and to feel like failures if we are in too much pain. As for religion...well msot are not religious,they don't have community,family breakdown,individualism...we hardly listen to one anoother and pay more attention to celebrities and gossip than we do to one another,no one talks to neighbours. People are gievn quick foxes by docotrs often when they go for help,not told to look deeper as Johan said,he was offered a pill to ease his pain not asked what happened to cause it.
What was the third business model social media companies could turn to?? Johan never mentioned it. First model is an ‘attention model’ Second is a ‘subscription model’. What might the third model be?

11:07 minutes in I had an epiphany. How bizarre that after years of antidepressants and therapy everything became clear 😅 How I move forward is the challenge 😁 Wishing you love and healing Davina!
Absolutely love this podcast davina you are amazing and this conversation is just so true and would listen to you both all day so interesting and informative ❤
Loved it . Thank you . Very grateful for all your work .
I think there is also a discussion to be had as to whether something,perhaps chemical, in our environment is changing our brain chemistry
Being ina state of flight or fight and in a stressed state changes your brain chemistry,fast foods and pollution also but alot of it is about loss of community,belonging and stressful fast paced life and individualism.Also lack of access to nature and green spaces,UK is one of the most nature depleted places on earth and there are places called blue zones where people live happier,longer,healthier lives and its mostly to do with good wholefood diet,community and a slower pace of life.UK is a very lonely place and we do not value community and relational times in the way other more non western cultures do,all this has been shown to lead to more depression and stress related diseases.
Davina im thinking of you and wish you well and speedy recovery ❤️ love to you and your family.
Beautiful conversation! Thank you Davina ❤❤❤
Hope your doing ok Davina 💖
Sending healing , love and light after your op 💐x

What was the third business model social media companies could turn to?? Johan never mentioned it.
First model is an ‘attention model’
Second is a ‘subscription model’.
What might the third model be?
We are highly disassocisted. we are losing the connection to our humanity..
Unfortunately, after hearing the word "right" what felt like 100 times in the first five minutes I couldn't watch any more.
