    Obscure Symptoms you didn't know were ADHD ft. Dr.Micaela
    2025/09/15
    Dr. K and Dr. Micaela dive into the side of ADHD most people don’t hear about. The everyday quirks, emotional struggles, and hidden habits that go far beyond “not paying attention.” They explore how ADHD shows up in piles of clutter (“doom piles”), impulse-driven conversations, and difficulty filtering what really matters. The discussion digs into: Why focus often collapses before big deadlines or events The link between ADHD and social anxiety, rejection sensitivity, and “ADHD guilt” How emotional regulation and chronic boredom fuel cycles of shame Why masking drains energy and damages relationships Practical coping strategies from timers and structured breaks to unmasking safely with trusted people This episode reframes ADHD as more than distraction—it’s about emotions, identity, and the way your brain interacts with the world.

    Why Men Keep Losing Control
    2025/09/08
    In this episode, Dr. K takes a hard look at anger, violence, and why some men seem to lose control. Using the Raja Jackson situation as a case study, he unpacks how hurt, ego, and value systems can pile up until anger explodes. Dr. K breaks down: How “perceived value systems” shape what we see as respect or disrespect The hidden role of hurt and egocentric thinking before anger even shows up Why some violence is “reactive” rather than psychopathic Red flags that make someone prone to abuse Why men, in particular, are socialized to convert fear or sadness into anger It’s a deep dive into the psychology of rage, how it develops, and what it takes to break the cycle whether in yourself or in people you know.

  • How Your Phone Controls You

    How Your Phone Controls You
    2025/09/01
    In this episode, Dr. K breaks down the hype around dopamine detoxes and social media breaks—and why they don’t actually solve the problem. Drawing on his background in addiction psychiatry, he explains that detoxing only pauses the cycle temporarily; if you go back to the same habits, nothing changes. Instead, Dr. K explores the neuroscience of dopamine, how technology hijacks our survival systems, and why balance is about building real-world rewards, not chasing quick fixes. Topics include: Why “dopamine detoxes” are a myth The neuroscience of withdrawal and tolerance How social media and video games mimic survival rewards like achievement and community Why balance means creating real-world alternatives, not just unplugging for a week Practical tips: protecting your morning dopamine, building sustainable habits, and shifting cravings toward healthier activities This is a thoughtful look at why tech is so addictive and how to reclaim your brain from it.

    Dr. K Answers Why You Hate Your Life
    2025/08/16
    In this episode, Dr. K explores why so many people feel stuck in dissatisfaction—and how deeper practices like meditation and Vedic psychology can help. Rather than just focusing on surface-level self-improvement, he breaks down the inner journey of facing suffering, understanding the mind, and building resilience. On his iPad, Dr. K walks through Vedic psychological models that explain why we get trapped in cycles of frustration, self-criticism, and comparison. He then shows how meditation, properly understood, is not about escape but about transforming how we relate to our thoughts and emotions. Topics include: Why modern life leaves so many feeling empty The Vedic psychology framework for understanding the mind How meditation actually works as a journey, not a quick fix Breaking free from cycles of dissatisfaction and finding deeper meaning This episode offers both practical insights and a philosophical lens to rethink why you struggle and how meditation can become a tool for real change.
