    S6 Ep 10: Stop Reveling in Sadness

    Trying to figure out how to 'deal' with other people is a problem. There's no difference between total strangers and people we are in relationships with. Stop reveling in sadness. Do you view life as happening 'to' you? Or do you view the majority of things in your personal life as something you are responsible for? Power over how you think. Examples of Passive-Aggressive Communication-Behavior Style. The Last Symptom Fundamentals Course now available to purchase chapter by chapter.

    S6 Ep 9: A Blueprint for Real Recovery

    S6 Ep 9: A Blueprint for Real Recovery

    I interview special guest 'Ava' in this episode, who has really set an excellent example of what authentic recovery from emotional disorders looks like, the natural way people behave when they are truly motivated and invested in getting healthy. Here, she talks about her attitude, the specifics of her efforts, the challenges she faces, how she overcomes them, and her optimism. I think many of you will really enjoy this one.

    S6 Ep 8: There's No Such Thing as a Healthy Marriage

    S6 Ep 8: There's No Such Thing as a Healthy Marriage

    There's no such thing as healthy or unhealthy relationships, no such thing as healthy or unhealthy marriages, and marriage counseling is an inherent obstruction to authentic recovery that is built entirely on a lie. In this episode we talk in depth about Love, and we ask 'Why'? Why does Love behave as it does?

    S6 Ep 6: A Hard Thing You Must Be Willing To Do

    John & Julian Lennon. Dancing along with the unhealthy crowd. Does the risk of making people angry control you? Who gets priority: Mother or Wife? Inner peace & good health are the same thing.

    S6 Ep 5: What Having Inherent Worth Does NOT Mean

    An important discussion about what your inherent worth does not mean. What do healthy people use to make decisions in their lives if it's not their feelings? The really simple formula for determining if something is a fair and reasonable expectation to have for others, and for self.

Heteronormative

A lot of great info but I feel excluded as a queer person listening as a lot of opposite-sex language is used.

Remember the target audience

This is a show made to help people who are emotionally unhealthy. Keep that in mind when you read the negative reviews. The podcast is 10/10 and agrees with (good) psychologists. It’s heart warming, entertaining, easily understandable and incredibly helpful. If you have had challenges in your personal relationships, you owe it to yourself to listen to this show. Thank you for everything you have done for me, Brian.

Period.

To anyone new here, this man saved my life. After almost two and a half years of listening to every single episode he has posted (and oftentimes multiple times), listening to his full fundamentals course multiple times, chewing on things and mulling over things constantly like Brian has talked about doing, and coming at this all with complete humility and genuineness (like the completely broken heart it talks about in Scriptures), I stand before you today a very, very different person from who I once was. I was living in excruciating pain for decades, and had no idea there was another way to live. I still have a ways to go and more to learn, and I will do so humbly and with conviction in my heart. Whether you believe in a Higher Power or not, this man is doing the Lord's work.

Oh, and for all those negative reviews I see here that are so obviously (mainly) from those in the "professional" community - please look inward and ask yourself how many people in debilitating pain have you genuinely cured or single-handedly brought to a point that they are living with real contentment and happiness? Especially with no medication or absolutely anything else. Really pause and think on that. Answer it honestly with yourself. (Oh, and if higher education is a qualifier you require to value someone's opinion, I say this as a PhD Mathematician from a top 20 university. If you're honest with yourself, you know as well as I do that our universities don't have anything remotely close to all the answers.)

After you’ve paused and thought on the question above, I will say: the proof is in the pudding and there are many of us here who have had *real* changes in our lives and all for the better. People who used to be in excruciating pain and no longer are. How do you say to a person like that who can breathe for the first time after a life of such horrible pain that essentially what they are saying isn't real? That their words have no value? Essentially that they're making it up? *That* is gaslighting. The old me would very much say it's like a slap in the face because it feels like you are not hearing us and are totally disregarding our feelings and experiences, our very real feelings and experiences. The irony is that - luckily for me, because of all the life-changing help I've had from The Last Symptom, I can look at your comments and feel disappointed, but it has no pull over my feelings like it once would have. Again, the irony. Again, the proof is in the pudding.
