Ever imagined the unique challenges college students are facing in terms of mental health today? What if there's a rising tide of anxiety and substance abuse that we're missing? Joined by Dr. Timothy Cordes, a conservative-leaning psychiatrist and university health professional, we dare to peel back the layers of mental health issues plaguing our campuses. From the non-specific nature of attention problems to the impact of cannabis use on attention, this enlightening conversation uncovers the intersection of mental health and higher education.
Prescription drugs, anxiety, and children - a trio that's become all too common in today's society. The question is, are we doing more harm than good when we normalize and advertise prescription drugs to our kids? We explore this controversial topic, emphasizing instead the importance of empowering students with tools to manage anxiety. We also take a hard look at the role of diet, exercise, and so-called 'safe spaces' in managing anxiety within our educational institutions.
Lastly, we zoom in on the ever-evolving world of parenting and child development. With technology taking center stage in children's lives, we discuss the potential benefits and drawbacks of online gaming and the importance of setting limits. We also address the pressing issue of ADHD and the need for structure and physical activity in schools. Add to this, the controversial topic of gender identity, the pressures of free range parenting, and the role of doctors in gender dysphoria. Join us for this thought-provoking conversation as we navigate these sensitive topics, challenging mainstream views and sparking much-needed dialogue.
