Managing Expectations: Ketamine, "Cures," and Cognitive Distortions
Manage episode 348631944 series 3402892
An exploration of "All or Nothing Thinking" and other mental habits that hold us back. Google "cognitive distortions," and you're sure to recognize a few patterns from your own internal monologue. Maybe you catastrophize or you tend to disqualify the positive things in your life. Another common cognitive distortion is "all or nothing thinking," which can wreak havoc on our ability to manage our expectations as we try different treatments.
Molly and Lynn discuss their own experiences with treatments that aren't cures, and Molly cautions against expecting therapeutic ketamine to end treatment resistant depression. They also share some thoughts on how distorting "all or nothing thinking" can be in the arenas of personal wellbeing and service to others. We take a moment of mourning for Dr. Paul Farmer, whose vision and moral clarity continue to instruct and inspire us.
We reference a wonderful Ezra Klein Show episode in which he interviews the incomparable Robert Sapolsky. That episode (called "Robert Sapolsky on the Toxic Relationship of Poverty and Stress") is here https://pod.link/voxconversations/episode/34b7e4b6820f3877279f47e0b38224c1
