  • Why Modern Men Feel Empty

    Why Modern Men Feel Empty
    Nov 1 2025
    Dr. K breaks down why so many men feel lonely, rejected, and angry today. He explains how society ties a man's worth to his relationship status and how internet advice warps real human connection. Using clinical insight and lived stories, he shows why effort alone is not the fix, why reciprocity and natural interaction matter, and how unprocessed sadness can harden into anger. The episode offers practical tools to clear social media projections, regulate emotions, and build healthy, organic relationships. Topics include: Social gatekeeping and status tied to relationships Why doing everything “right” still feels empty Reciprocity as the core signal of safety and interest How to be natural by reducing projection and reading context Anger as disguised sadness and how to work with both Concrete steps to date without resentment or creepiness Countering red pill narratives with self-inquiry and repair HG Coaching : https://bit.ly/46bIkdo Dr. K's Guide to Mental Health: https://bit.ly/44z3Szt HG Memberships : https://bit.ly/3TNoMVf Products & Services : https://bit.ly/44kz7x0 HealthyGamer.GG: https://bit.ly/3ZOopgQ Learn more about your ad choices.

    The State of Mental Illness in 2025
    Oct 27 2025
    In this special World Mental Health Day stream, Dr. K explores why mental illness continues to rise even as awareness, therapy, and neuroscience have advanced. He connects the dots between modern lifestyles, constant stimulation, and a growing disconnection from the body. Using insights from both Western psychiatry and Vedic psychology, Dr. K explains how anxiety, burnout, and attention issues are symptoms of a deeper imbalance. The conversation blends brain science with practical tools for rewiring habits and developing real resilience. Topics include: Why mental health is declining despite more treatment options How technology and constant stimulation mimic ADHD symptoms The role of panic, urgency, and emotional reactivity in shaping attention Practical steps for retraining motivation through small, low-pressure actions Understanding “phantom panic” and how to regulate the nervous system The link between breath, CO₂ balance, and anxiety How diet and the gut–brain connection influence mood Combining therapy, medication, and mind–body practices Meditation as a long-term way to build focus and emotional stability HG Coaching : ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/46bIkdo⁠⁠ Dr. K's Guide to Mental Health: ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/44z3Szt⁠⁠ HG Memberships : ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3TNoMVf⁠⁠ Products & Services : ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/44kz7x0⁠⁠ HealthyGamer.GG: ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3ZOopgQ⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Broke and Almost Broken | Dr. K’s Best Realistic Advice

    Broke and Almost Broken | Dr. K’s Best Realistic Advice
    Oct 25 2025
    Dr. K responds to a listener on the edge facing eviction, job loss, and deep self-loathing with a grounded look at what it takes to rebuild when life falls apart. He explains how chronic stress hijacks the body and mind, making it impossible to think clearly or connect with others until basic stability is restored. Through a mix of neuroscience, compassion, and lived experience, Dr. K shows how to move from helplessness to small, concrete steps that restore control and dignity. Topics include: How survival stress blocks motivation and emotional regulation Why material stability (food, sleep, shelter, income) must come before self-work The “Housing First” principle and what it teaches us about recovery Practical job-hunting tips: resume polish, in-person networking, showing up How walking helps discharge anxiety and unlock mental clarity Turning abstract negative thoughts into actionable, contextual steps Why burnout makes empathy—and social connection—feel impossible HG Coaching : https://bit.ly/46bIkdo Dr. K's Guide to Mental Health: https://bit.ly/44z3Szt HG Memberships : https://bit.ly/3TNoMVf Products & Services : https://bit.ly/44kz7x0 HealthyGamer.GG: https://bit.ly/3ZOopgQJump Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Dr.K Explains Tylenol and Autism

    Dr.K Explains Tylenol and Autism
    Oct 20 2025
    Dr. K unpacks the growing debate around acetaminophen (Tylenol) and its possible link to autism while cutting through the noise of headlines, political statements, and online panic. He explains what the data actually shows, why correlation doesn’t equal causation, and how confounding variables like maternal illness, age, and chronic conditions can completely change how we interpret these studies. Using his background as both a psychiatrist and medical researcher, Dr. K breaks down what autism really is—a neurodevelopmental spectrum shaped by thousands of subtle genetic and environmental factors. He dives into how modern healthcare has unintentionally increased autism diagnoses through both better detection and the survival of high-risk births. The episode also examines the role of SSRIs, infections, and chronic illness in influencing risk, and why oversimplifying the problem could lead to worse outcomes. Topics include: What autism actually is and why it’s a spectrum, not a single disorder Why autism rates are rising with better diagnosis vs. real risk factors The Tylenol connection: what studies really say about acetaminophen use in pregnancy Confounding variables: how illness and infection skew the data The role of maternal/paternal age, chronic illness, and environmental exposure SSRIs, pregnancy, and how risk statistics are often misunderstood Why demonizing one factor (like Tylenol) can cause more harm than good This episode offers a calm, science-based perspective on a heated topic reminding us that complex conditions like autism rarely have a single cause, and that real understanding requires nuance, not fear.

  • Dr.K Reacts To Collargate

    Dr.K Reacts To Collargate
    Oct 18 2025
    Dr. K takes a grounded, psychological look at “Collargate,” the viral controversy surrounding Hasan Piker and his dog. Rather than judging individuals, he unpacks what the internet’s reaction reveals about collective psychology, why outrage spreads, how mentalization fails, and how online radicalization erodes empathy. The episode becomes less about one streamer and more about the state of digital discourse itself. Dr. K explores the neuroscience of emotional triggers, the human obsession with novelty and hypocrisy, and how resentment and projection fuel mob dynamics online. Topics include: Why internet outrage cycles (like “Collargate”) dominate attention and emotion How emotional reactivity overrides critical thinking and creates echo chambers The concept of mentalization—understanding others’ motives before judging How failure of dialogue and empathy drives polarization and radicalization The neuroscience of memes, emotional engagement, and belief formation Projection, resentment, and the need to “see justice” when power feels unaccountable The dangers of black-and-white thinking, selection bias, and narrative fixation Dr. K’s reflections on empathy, dialogue, and how creators can respond to public backlash This episode blends cultural commentary with deep psychological insight which turns a Twitch controversy into a lesson on human cognition, empathy, and the modern attention economy.
