The SOS Show with Suchita

This episode has the understanding and study of mental illness from the perspective of the Neuroscientist, Vidita Vaidya. Despite adequate research on the brain and mental illness, we have not been able to tap a 100 percent accuracy in the treatments on mental illnesses and of course a lot of side effects to the medicines. Can psychedelic drugs be an answer or can a brain-computer interface be an answer to the 100 percent problem-solving? What does the future look like when it comes to mental illness post-CO VID 19?  You can follow us and leave us feedback on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter @eplogmedia, For partnerships/queries send you can send us an email at [email protected].

Caregiving  for someone with mental illness is as hard and especially when the  mental illness has psychotic traces like schizophrenia.  Practicing active empathy, compassion and sensitivity can really help. Namarita  shares her story of her family dealing with her mother having  schizophrenia. We also talk about the voices and the dimensions that the  person living with schizophrenia deals with. Modern medication since  1887 have not been able to cure the side effects of medication or the  reason behind the voices.  We try and decipher this from the caregivers point of view. The  causes/ trigger for schizophrenia could be varied from genetic, to  trauma, to sensitivity quotient of the person to the person getting  inside a new environment.  Developing a buffer system unconsciously can really help. We still have a severe lack of psychologist and psychiatrist to deal with severe mental health cases.   How are we going to bridge this gap.  Let us know what you think about this episode  DM us on Instagram @eplogmedia or mail us on [email protected] omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A TEDX Speaker & Ashoka Fellow, Reshma Valiapan, is among the people to embrace Schizophrenia and take advantage of it to become successful at a plethora of activities, one of them being Painting. Schizophrenia  is a very tough mental illness where the person suffering and their  environment both get affected in equal and more proportions. This was  first identified in the year 1887.  John  Nash, the Nobel prize winner, Albert Einstein's Son, The most admired  Novelist of American Pop Culture Jack Kerouac, all were diagnosed with  this chronic mental illness .  One of the primary symptoms is they hear voices- who tell them to do various things.  In  our podcast- THE SOS SHOW- with the admirable artist, Reshma Valliappan  we try to decipher those voices; we also try and understand the basis  of Schizophrenia.  It's  very strange that with all the medical developments we still don't have  a complete understanding of this mental illness- in fact, we are still  at the tip of the iceberg.  In  this conversation, Reshma strongly feels it is the dysfunctional  parenting that leads to this chronic illness- SO DO WE NEED TO PAY  ATTENTION TO DYSFUNCTIONAL PARENTING- AND CAN WE DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT  AS A SOCIETY!! We  still don't have any good medication without side effects for  Schizophrenia; in fact, THE SIDE EFFECTS ARE SO SEVERE THAT THE PERSON  STOPS FUNCTIONING AT ALL; IS ANYONE LISTENING TO THIS. AND CAN WE DO  SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. So what are the alternate forms of medication to  deal with Schizophrenia?  This  and much more as we explore and dig deeper into this misnomer and very  little understood,  mental illness in the EP 1 of THE SOS SHOW.  Here are few take aways from the episode: 1) the basis of Schitzhophernia-is it DNA or something else  2) medications for schizophrenia  3) psychotherapy  4) alternative medication  5) building a strong community to support Want to share your experiences or thoughts to this episode?

The  discussion on MENTAL HEALTH has been a taboo in most of the societies.   With the WHO estimating a figure of 300 million people affected with  depression, 60 million with bipolar, and 23 million with schizophrenia-  we are just getting started in defining MENTAL HEALTH; We still classify  mental health as MADNESS.  In  our podcast- THE SOS SHOW- we are going to a demystify a lot of beliefs  around mental health- We are going to speak to the fighters, the  innovators, the fearless ones and more, about what MENTAL HEALTH means  to them, how can we redefine the already defined- WHAT MENTAL HEALTH  REALLY IS and how can we break all the taboos created around it; Also,  how can the society, the medical and the government infrastructure be  smoothened to bring an immediate help to someone needed, without being  embarrassed about it, without be worried about it even in the middle of  the night; Also how do we eradicate the indifference related to mental  health in the minds of the people.   THE  SOS SHOW intends to open up the discussion on mental health and bring  about a real change and A LEAP in our cultural ecosystem with regards to  MENTAL HEALTH.   This podcast is brought to you by EP.LOG MEDIA & METAPHYSICAL LAB.
