  • Frozen: Best Therapy Scenes for ADHD and women [Feat. Dr.Kahn]
    Jul 4 2024
    Let our sponsor, BetterHelp, connect you to a therapist who can support you - all from the comfort of your home. Visit https://betterhelp.com/dsp and enjoy a special discount on your first month. In today's podcast, we dive into Disney's hit, Frozen, with special guest therapist and clinical psychologist Dr. Gilly Kahn 🌟. We explore three critical scenes to discuss the intersections of being a woman and dealing with ADHD. First, we talk about how ADHD shows up differently in women and men. Women often repress symptoms to appear more quiet and feminine, while boys can be more hyperactive 🤷‍♀️. We kick off with the iconic song "Let It Go" 🎶, which symbolizes letting go of societal expectations and embracing one's true self. Elsa's transformation represents the journey to self-acceptance, building a life that fits you, rather than fitting into societal molds. Next, we examine a scene where Elsa and Anna have a falling out at a party 🎉, highlighting the experience of overstimulation. Elsa's reaction shows the intense shame, anger, and confusion that can arise 😔. This visualizes the struggle many face with sensory overload and the subsequent fallout. Lastly, we look at a scene where Elsa pushes Anna away, fearing she'll hurt her again. This illustrates the fear of overstimulation and hurting loved ones, leading to isolation 🥶. While isolation might protect us from harm, it also prevents us from experiencing love and connection ❤️. Through these scenes, we hope to shed light on the unique challenges faced by those with ADHD, particularly women 🌸. Dr. Gilly Kahn shares valuable insights on how to navigate these experiences, set boundaries, and communicate effectively. Join us for an enlightening discussion, and remember to embrace your authentic self, just like Elsa did. Let it go and connect with loved ones in a way that honors your needs and theirs ❄️.

  • The Fountain: Best scenes for Hyper-Phantasia in Autism [Feat. Rebecca]
    Jun 17 2024
    Let our sponsor, BetterHelp, connect you to a therapist who can support you - all from the comfort of your home. Visit https://betterhelp.com/dsp and enjoy a special discount on your first month. Today's podcast dives into hyperphantasia, a condition where people have extremely vivid imagery. We’re joined by special guest and children's book author Rebecca Vitsmun, who will discuss her book and share insights from her favorite movie featuring Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz. 🎙️📚🍎 Rebecca explains hyperphantasia using vivid imagery exercises. Can you imagine an apple? Its color, the stem, the juice as you cut it? This ability to visualize vividly is common among folks on the autism spectrum. We explore how hyperphantasia can be both a creative escape and a source of anxiety. Rebecca shares how vivid visualizations can lead to hyperfixations on anxious or fearful thoughts, like worrying about loved ones or worst-case scenarios for children. Dr. Naz and Rebecca discuss grounding techniques and how to support children with hyperphantasia. We reference scenes from "The Fountain" where Hugh Jackman's character visualizes his deceased wife, demonstrating how vivid imagery can help process grief and memories. Rebecca's favorite movie helped her heal from obsessive visualizations, a common struggle for those with hyperphantasia. We hope you find today's podcast educational and insightful. Don't forget to check out Rebecca's book, "Eliza Dee's Universe," which offers a unique perspective on living with hidden disabilities. 🌟📖🧠 Join us for this fascinating discussion on hyperphantasia, its impacts, and how to support those experiencing it.

  • The Last Dragon: Therapist Reaction - Narcissistic people, Shame, and Growth [Feat. Dr.Funnies]
    Jun 10 2024
    Let our sponsor, BetterHelp, connect you to a therapist who can support you - all from the comfort of your home. Visit https://betterhelp.com/dsp and enjoy a special discount on your first month. Today's podcast welcomes back the sunny meme queen, Dr. Funnies from Instagram! 🌞 She had such a blast last time, even while recording in her closet. 😅 Today, we're breaking down "The Last Dragon" starring Bruce Leroy, produced by the legendary Barry Gordy of Motown fame. 🎶 We're diving deep into the film, focusing on visual depictions of narcissism. We see characters being egged on by their friends, which can be super detrimental in real life. Why do people enable others? How does this stop us from setting boundaries? 🤔 We'll explore these questions and more, talking about how our clients struggle with this and how we do too. We'll also discuss the evil antagonist, the promoter, who uses people to boost himself up, only to discard them later. This behavior is common in narcissists who love bomb, then abuse mentally, physically, and emotionally. The highs and lows of this behavior can be really damaging, and we'll talk about the cycle of shame, guilt, and fear it creates. 💔 In the final scenes, we'll explore what it's like to find your superpowers after therapy. It's that moment when you realize everything you've ever needed is already inside you, but your therapist helped you unlock it. 🌟 We'll discuss how this relates to Bruce Leroy's journey in the movie and what it means for personal growth. So, join us as we dive into these visual images, have some fun, and maybe give you new ways to express yourself or understand narcissism. And don't forget to follow Dr. Funnies on Instagram @MentalHealthFunnies. Enjoy the show! 🎧🙌 Today's episode is full of laughs, insights, and powerful takeaways. We can't wait for you to join us on this journey. 🌈✨ Thanks for checking out Different Spectrums!
