On episode 189, we welcome Roy Richard Grinker to discuss the cultural differences of conceptions of mental illness, the WEIRD model of mental health and its limitations in helping us understand it, the false dichotomy of the social/cultural and biological models of psychological disorders, the limits and benefits of using the DSM, how the model of neurodivergence doesn’t negate the existence of emotional struggles, Roy’s grandfather undergoing treatment with Sigmund Freud and why he considered him to be a poor psychotherapist, how Nepali concepts of mental illnesses focus more on their physical elements and why this affects treatment, and the promise of epigenetics in helping to treat trauma-related, generational disorders.
