Brain Trash: Psychiatry from DSM to Dumpster Fire
Welcome to Brain Trash, where we rip off the sugar-coated filter and talk about the raw, messy, and frustrating realities of psychiatry. Hosted by psychiatric nurse practitioners who know the system inside and out, this podcast is for clinicians tired of textbook psychiatry BS and everyday people trying to make sense of their mental health.
đ Overdiagnosis. Self-diagnosis. Medications that help. Medications that ruin lives. The DSM. The WTFs of mental health. If youâve ever side-eyed a diagnosis, questioned your meds, or felt like the system was failing youâyou're not alone.
No gatekeeping. No corporate-sanitized psychiatry. Just honest, unfiltered conversations about neurodivergence, trauma, the cracks in the system, and what we need to do differently.
đĽ If youâve ever felt dismissed by a mental health provider or questioned the way we do thisâhit subscribe. Letâs rethink psychiatry together.
