Missed Diagnoses in History: Story Time: Charles VI and Mary Todd Lincoln

I figured we'd do something I've been wanting to do for a while: story time. Specifically, the kind where I take some of history's most famous figures, walk you through what actually happened to them, and then put on my psychiatry resident hat and try to figure out what we'd actually diagnose them with today. We will be analyzing King of France, Charles VI and Mary Todd Lincoln. Get ready to hear me yap about psychiatric history!

Physical Therapy for EDS: Why It Fails and How to Make It Work | Ep. 201

"Exercise is good for EDS." So why do so many hypermobile people get worse when they try it? In this episode of Bendy Bodies with the Hypermobility MD, Dr. Linda Bluestein is joined by co-host Dr. Dacre Knight, Medical Director of the UVA Health EDS and Hypermobility Disorders Center, and physical therapist Dr. Morgan Groover to discuss one of the most misunderstood aspects of hypermobility care: how to make physical therapy and exercise work for a hypermobile body. Many people with Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (EDS), Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders (HSD), chronic pain, POTS, and related conditions have been told to exercise more, only to experience increased pain, injury, or setbacks. Others have been told to avoid activity altogether. In this conversation, Dr. Groover explains why both approaches can miss the mark. Together, they explore how hypermobile joints, muscles, tendons, and connective tissues respond to load, why individualized physical therapy is essential, and how the right amount of strengthening can improve joint stability, function, and quality of life. Dr. Groover shares practical strategies for determining an appropriate starting point, progressing safely, interpreting pain and soreness, and avoiding the common cycle of overdoing it and crashing. They also discuss the powerful role language plays in rehabilitation, how fear of movement can contribute to disability, and why hypermobile patients can often continue participating in activities they love, including running, dancing, yoga, and sports, with the right support and guidance. Whether you're living with EDS, HSD, generalized joint hypermobility, chronic pain, or you're a clinician looking to better support hypermobile patients, this episode offers practical, evidence-informed insights that can help change the way you think about movement and rehabilitation. Takeaways: • Why physical therapy often fails hypermobile patients and what successful EDS-informed rehabilitation looks like • The difference between productive soreness and pain that signals excessive loading • How muscles and tendons adapt to exercise and support joint stability in hypermobility • Why both overloading and underloading can contribute to worsening symptoms • How to safely return to exercise, sports, dance, yoga, and other meaningful activities • Why language matters when discussing joint instability, weakness, and pain • How fear of movement can contribute to deconditioning and disability • Practical strategies for building strength, resilience, and confidence in a hypermobile body Find the episode transcript here.

Inside Sports Psychiatry with Dr. David McDuff

In this episode of Psychiatry Bootcamp, Dr. Mark Mullen welcomes Dr. David McDuff, the "grandfather" of sports psychiatry, to examine the origins, clinical framework, and practical application of this rapidly evolving subspecialty. Dr. McDuff brings more than three decades of experience as team psychiatrist for the Baltimore Orioles and Baltimore Ravens, alongside service on the International Olympic Committee's Mental Health Working Group, to offer a uniquely authoritative perspective on mental health care in elite sport. Takeaways: The sports psychiatrist functions as an embedded, on-site clinician whose brief, informal interactions in training rooms and on practice fields carry genuine therapeutic weight, producing athlete utilization rates of 25–35%, five to seven times the standard employee assistance program benchmark. Dr. McDuff treats the athlete's brain as neurobiologically sensitive, initiating all psychiatric medications at or below the lowest standard doses and preferring slow-titration combination pharmacotherapy over high-dose monotherapy to maximize adherence and harness placebo effect. Common therapeutic factors like engaging a support system can be especially effective in athletes and especially difficult to initiate due to stimga. Therapeutic use exemptions do not require a prior trial of non-stimulant agents, stimulants remain guideline-concordant first-line treatment for ADHD in athletes, and withholding them without clinical justification constitutes a lower standard of care. Clinicians seeking formal training in sports psychiatry can pursue a 27-module certificate through the International Society of Sports Psychiatry (https://sportspsychiatry.org/) or board certification through the American Board of Sport and Performance Psychiatry, which now offers three distinct pathways for medical students, residents, and experienced clinicians.

Everything You're Getting Wrong About Sleep with Sleep Doctor Chris

This week we sit down with Dr. Chris Allen, board-certified sleep medicine physician, board-certified pediatric neurologist, and a man who has been on CPAP therapy for 22 years. We cover how a sleep study actually works, the real misconceptions around sleep apnea, why CPAP isn't the only treatment option, and what the difference is between a home sleep test and a full in-lab polysomnogram. Oh, and we get into parasomnias, which is the fancy medical word for "doing things in your sleep you shouldn't be doing", a category that, as Kristin helpfully reveals, includes me putting on dress pants in the middle of the night and getting back into bed. We also go deep on kids and sleep. Turns out a lot of children diagnosed with ADHD actually have undiagnosed sleep apnea, and treating it can change everything. Plus night terrors , revenge bedtime procrastination, neurodivergent sleep challenges, and why your brain isn't actually out to get you, it just really needs you to stop scrolling. Chris also has a children's book called Sweet Dreams, which is his personal story adapted for kids, and it's exactly the kind of advocacy that makes this stuff actually land. Takeaways: Snoring is never normal, it always means your airway is partially obstructed during sleep, and while it doesn't automatically mean sleep apnea, it's always worth asking the questions. Sleep apnea isn't just a "big guy" problem, anyone can have it regardless of body size, it affects women at the same rate as men after menopause, and in children it often shows up as inattention, hyperactivity, and moodiness that gets mistaken for ADHD. CPAP is great but it's not the only treatment, there are multiple ways to treat obstructive sleep apnea depending on your anatomy, age, and situation, so don't let the Darth Vader mask reputation scare you away from getting evaluated. Parasomnias like sleepwalking, night terrors, and confusional arousals are all under one umbrella, they're common, they're often made worse by other untreated sleep disorders, and there are actual medications that can help if they're disruptive enough. Revenge bedtime procrastination is real and your brain chemistry explains it, caffeine blocks adenosine (your sleep hunger signal), screens suppress melatonin, and cortisol from daily stress keeps your fight-or-flight response lit, which is why 11 PM you keeps doing laundry instead of going to bed. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

Fatigue, Pain, Poor Sleep? It Could Be Vitamin D. | Dr. Gregory Plotnikoff & Dr. Dacre Knight (Ep. 199)

Could one of the most overlooked drivers of chronic pain, fatigue, poor sleep, and slow recovery be hiding in plain sight? In this episode, Dr. Linda Bluestein and co-host Dr. Dacre Knight sit down with integrative medicine pioneer Dr. Gregory Plotnikoff to unpack why Vitamin D may be one of the most important, misunderstood, and cost-effective interventions in modern medicine. But this conversation goes far beyond bone health. Dr. Plotnikoff explains why Vitamin D functions more like a hormone than a vitamin, influencing over 2,000 genes tied to immune function, mood, sleep, inflammation, muscle health, and pain regulation. Together, they explore why profound deficiencies are shockingly common, even in sunny climates, and how low levels may contribute to chronic musculoskeletal pain, tendinopathies, stress fractures, fatigue, and complex chronic illness. The discussion also dives into practical, foundational medicine for patients with Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes (EDS), POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome), MCAS (mast cell activation syndrome), chronic pain, and other multisystem conditions, including the “Top 5” lab tests Dr. Plotnikoff believes are essential for understanding the bigger picture of health. If you’ve ever been told your labs are “normal” while still feeling awful, this episode may change how you think about chronic illness and foundational health. Takeaways: • Vitamin D is actually a hormone that regulates gene expression affecting pain, sleep, energy, immunity, and bone health. • Chronic musculoskeletal pain, stress fractures, and tendon problems may sometimes be linked to severe Vitamin D deficiency. • Many people remain profoundly deficient despite living in sunny climates because Vitamin D synthesis is blocked by glass, sunscreen, clothing, and indoor lifestyles. • Vitamin D dosing is often weight-dependent, meaning some individuals require significantly higher doses to reach adequate levels. • Dr. Plotnikoff’s “Top 5” foundational labs for complex chronic illness include: Find the episode transcript here.

Knock Knock Eye: Is Medical Recertification a Money Grab?

I just watched The Backrooms and now I can't stop thinking about hospital liminal spaces. The basement. The pathology lab. The OR at 2 AM when you're going in for an open globe. We start there. Then a great Spotify question pulls me into ophthalmology boards, what the written test is like, the oral exam I took inside an examiner's actual hotel room (with their luggage in the corner) during a hotel workers' strike in San Francisco, the $2,000 fee, and why the whole recertification industry feels like a money grab. Also a quick rant about why physicians start their careers $400K in the hole and a decade behind everyone else. The main event is a tale of two health systems. You already know PeaceHealth in Eugene, where the emergency physicians fought back, used Oregon's corporate practice of medicine law, and took it to court. Now meet Valley Health in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley, where CEO Mark Nance just cancelled the contract for EMBER (Emergency Medicine of Blue Ridge) and handed it to SCP Healthm a private equity outfit backed by Canada's Onex Corporation. Same Apollo MD playbook. Same damage. But Virginia has no corporate practice of medicine law, no physician union, and no nurses' union, and Valley Health is flush with cash while blaming Medicaid cuts. I'm fed up, and I'm going to keep making this content as long as people keep sending it to me. Takeaways: Valley Health in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley cancelled its 20-plus-year contract with EMBER (Emergency Medicine of Blue Ridge) and handed it to SCP Health, a private equity-backed corporation owned by Canada's Onex Corporation, mirroring the Apollo MD/PeaceHealth situation in Eugene Despite blaming Medicaid cuts from the "Big Beautiful Bill," Valley Health holds over $1 billion in assets, $700 million in cash reserves, and reported $100 million in net profit in 2024 and continues to build new facilities Valley Health has also forced out Front Royal Family Practice under CEO Mark Nance, revealing a broader pattern of consolidating independent groups and eliminating physician autonomy Virginia has no corporate practice of medicine law, no physician union, and no nurses' union, leaving healthcare workers without the legal and organizational protections that allowed the Eugene physicians to fight back successfully Ophthalmology board recertification, board exam fees, and roughly $400K in training debt mean most physicians don't start meaningful earnings until age 31 or later, a financial reality often missing from broader debates about physician pay To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

Meaningful Psychotherapy: Psychoanalytic Principles in Modern Psychotherapy with Dr. Jonathan Shedler

In this profound episode of Psychiatry Boot Camp, host Dr. Mark Mullen sits down with world-renowned researcher and clinician Dr. Jonathan Shedler. Moving beyond the "alphabet soup" of modern modalities, Dr. Shedler argues for a return to the foundational psychoanalytic principles that constitute the "trunk and roots" of all effective talk therapy. The discussion challenges the standard medical model of "diagnose and prescribe," urging psychiatrists to unlearn passive history-taking in favor of a collaborative partnership that traverses into the unknown. From critiquing the superficiality of "therapy speak" and the "first aid" nature of short-term institutional treatments to highlighting the vital roles of personal therapy and high-quality supervision, Dr. Shedler offers a rigorous roadmap for practitioners seeking to restore the soul of psychiatry. Takeaways: Traversing the Unknown: Real psychological change requires both patient and therapist to abandon familiar, repetitive patterns and enter an unscripted, shared space of discovery.Partnership vs. Procedure: Meaningful therapy is a collaborative partnership where the clinician is not an all-knowing expert performing a procedure on a passive patient, but a participant-observer figuring out the problem together.Aptitude and Experience: Developing clinical expertise requires three pillars: inherent aptitude for the work, the clinician’s own personal psychotherapy, and high-quality, non-administrative clinical supervision.The "Fever" Metaphor: Symptoms like depression and anxiety are non-specific responses to underlying difficulties; meaningful treatment identifies the cause of the "fever" rather than just providing symptom-suppressing "aspirin".The Danger of Therapy Speak: Popular cliches like "your feelings are valid" or "toxic narcissist" often act as intellectual defenses that bypass the hard work of understanding specific, particular experiences.Dose and Duration: Research suggests that meaningful, life-shifting psychological change typically begins around six months of weekly treatment, contrasting sharply with the 12-session models common in institutional settings.

Told You’re “Too Sensitive”? It Might Be ADHD, Autism, and Hypermobility with Jessica Eccles (Ep 194)

Dr. Jessica Eccles, an award-winning neurodevelopmental psychiatrist, returns for a deep dive into the profound connections between hypermobility, variant connective tissue, and the neurodivergent brain. In this conversation, she explores why individuals with bendy bodies are significantly more likely to be autistic or have ADHD, and how these conditions create a "spiky profile" of sensory and emotional challenges. Dr. Eccles unpacks the embodied nature of rejection sensitivity, describing it as a physical "punch in the chest" and reveals how improving proprioception (your sense of where you are in space) can actually stabilize emotional regulation. This episode provides a vital unifying framework for those who have spent years feeling misunderstood by the medical community, offering both a shared narrative and practical tools for healing. Takeaways: The Shared Narrative: Healing requires a shared framework between doctor and patient; without a narrative that unifies brain and body symptoms, patients often experience clinician-associated trauma. Proprioceptive Surprise: Hypermobile individuals often experience "proprioceptive surprise," where uncertainty about the body's position in space directly doubles the risk of emotional dysregulation. The Physical Side of Rejection: Rejection sensitivity is not just a psychological construct but an embodied experience, often felt as a physical blow or a sudden loss of support. The Masking Spectrum: Many hypermobile people mask not only neurodivergent traits but also chronic pain from a young age, often assuming their "medical strangeness" is typical for everyone. Diagnostic Labels vs. Patterns: Dr. Eccles argues that many people diagnosed with borderline personality disorder may actually be autistic or have ADHD, finding that stimulants can often improve impulsivity and emotional stability better than traditional psychiatric medications Find the episode transcript here.

Glauc Talk: The Mystery of My Unknown Genetic Mutation

I’m back from a whirlwind speaking tour where I realized my entire social media presence might just be a long-con ruse to get a captive audience of 1,000 electrophysiologists to look at my genetic testing report. I officially "locked the doors" at the Heart Rhythm Society in Chicago until someone could tell me if my phospholamban mutation actually means anything. Spoiler alert: I met the guy who literally mapped the gene, and he reassured me it’s a "variant of no significance," which is way more comforting than "uncertain significance". I also had a run-in with a couple at a pool in Florida who were dreading the "entertainment guy" with the weird name, only for me to lean over and put them out of their misery. The real drama this week, though, is in the courtroom: corporate medicine is on trial in Oregon. I’m breaking down the "dummy LLC" loophole that allows out-of-state corporations to replace local, physician-owned groups with locums who don’t know the community. We dive into the PeaceHealth fiasco in Eugene, where a CEO is currently on administrative leave following whistleblower emails that suggest clinical decisions were being influenced for profit. It’s a messy look at hospital contract shenanigans and why having doctors invested in their own community actually matters for patient safety. Takeaways: The "Dummy LLC" legal maneuver corporations use to bypass state laws meant to keep medicine physician-owned. How I used a 20-foot screen and a captive audience of specialists to get a second opinion on my own genetic mutation. The "cardiology confident" reassurance I received about my heart from the man who mapped the phospholamban protein. Why the CEO of a major Oregon hospital is on administrative leave following whistleblower emails about clinical interference. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!
