What if your depression isn’t a chemical imbalance... but a communication breakdown?
In this raw and revelatory episode, I sit down with Dr. Fred Moss—a board-certified psychiatrist who’s seen 30,000 patients and written over 100,000 prescriptions... only to realize the real medicine is something Big Pharma can’t bottle: human connection.
Dr. Fred gets real about his journey from burnout to breakthrough, why he hates how psychiatry has changed since Prozac, and how he discovered that healing isn’t about slapping a label on someone—it’s about listening, creating, and finding your true voice again.
We explore:
- Why diagnoses might be doing more harm than good
- The real reason people are desperate for medication (hint: it’s not what you think)
- How creativity, not chemistry, may be your best medicine
- Why you’re already more powerful than any prescription pad
- And how you can begin healing without waiting for anyone’s permission
Whether you’ve ever questioned your diagnosis, your therapist, or your own inner voice—this episode gives you permission to get real, get curious, and maybe, just maybe... realize there’s nothing wrong with you.
🧠 This is psychiatry unfiltered, unscripted, and unafraid.
🎧 Listen now and rediscover the freedom that comes when you stop treating symptoms and start speaking truth.
