Mental Health Industrial Complex 1:25:27

4 years önce1:25:27

1:25:27

In this episode I talk about a research article called "The Mental Health Industrial Complex: A Study in Three Cases" by Dr. Eric M. Greene from 2019 in The Journal of Humanistic Psychology. Dr. Greene explains through three case studies how the biomedical model of diagnosing creates individualized health conditions while ignoring environmental and social factors, medicalizes natural human behavior that is a response to unhealthy environments, and by pathologizing behavior it can make mental illness symptoms worse. It is worth noting that in the first section of the episode, first 26 minutes, I talk about my personal struggles with mental illness when I was younger. If you would rather skip this part you can hop to the 27th minute to focus on the research of Dr. Greene. BUT discussing my experiences puts into context why I am so interested in this research, and on the intersection of environment and health in general. In addition to the article I also reference The Happiness Industry by William Davies. Great book, highly recommend. I use this book as a reference point for my episode on Happiness from awhile back (Happiness Part 2 specifically) So check that out if you want deeper context and analysis of The Happiness Industry, which delves into the history of the American mental health industry. As always I would love any feedback. Please like, subscribe and leave a review as it helps so much for us podcasters! Share with a friend if you're feeling particularly giving. If you have any questions or comments please feel free to reach out to me via instagram, twitter, tiktok, all @aubtron. Or you can email me at structuresofself@gmail.com.

Boys' Friendships, Masculinity and Human Connection 53:13

4 years önce53:13

This episode focuses on the research of Niobe Way from their book: Deep Secrets: Boys' Friendships and the Crisis of Connection. The book unpacks how our concepts of American masculinity do not always reflect the lived experiences of boys and gender expression. And that the development of masculinity in boys is reflective of how are are all "in the culture" and play a role, and that it speaks to larger systems of culture that influence everyone in the United States. Books I mention in this episode: Deep Secrets by Niobe Way Together by Vivek Murthy Loneliness by John T. Cacioppo Social by Matthew Lieberman If you have any comments, questions or topic suggestions I'd love to hear from you! Send me a message on instagram @aubtron or email meat aubreystarkmiller@gmail.com. I'm also on Clubhouse at @aubtron or just search for my name, Aubrey Stark-Miller.

Social Environment: Isolation Part I 49:47

49:47

This episode will begin to get into social isolation, with structural and psychological origins, and the effects on the body and mind. This will be a multi-part series since there's just too much loneliness to fit into one episode and because Aubrey likes to go off on tangents. In this first part a couple questions are asked, so that we may begin to think about how loneliness or less social contact could, potentially, influence our health and our social structures due to covid-19. This first segment looks at some of the previously existing health effects of loneliness (pre-covid) and the theories as to why loneliness is tied to health.

The Self and The Home 55:57

This episode asks many questions, among them: What is our relationship to the space around us? Do we see ourselves as separate from our homes or connected? What changes may arise in that relationship as a result of COVID-19? There are a couple historical and anthropological throwbacks to put in context how we, as humans, generally have viewed the home. The main objective is to better understand the relationship, allow ourselves to ask some questions and develop awareness of the connections between living spaces and ourselves. A little philosophical, a little real world application, a lot of questions. Here's to opening our minds, increasing awareness and staying curious.

Welcome to Structures of Self, a podcast taking an in-depth look at our social and physical environments and how they contribute to the creation of "self" through our mental and physical health. The hosts are Aubrey and Courtney, two women who have chosen a lifestyle without alcohol and are always over-thinking and analyzing their experiences and the science behind human behavior. Since they know they must not be the only ones with questions like these, here is the podcast manifestation of their ramblings! Today we have a conversation introducing who we are, why we wanted to start a podcast, how being sober has influenced changes in our behavior, and how our built and social environments impact our mental and physical health. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/structuresofself/support…
