It's so interesting to me because on the one hand, I remember my mom when I was going through

The depression and I was very wrapped up in the

conventional narrative of this.

But she just would say to me, You can choose not to be depressed.

And I would hit the roof.

That made me so angry that she would say that because it felt so out of my control.

And then I got off the drugs, went through withdrawal, and you know it's been ten years now and

Oh boy, do I understand what she means by saying you can choose not to do this.

But it's so hard to embody that and to learn this stuff, and there's so little support.

So that's my long-winded way of saying how do we apply this to psychology mental health?

So tell us a little bit about nocebo and placebo.

I some of the audience is probably gonna be familiar with this, but a refresher is always good.

And again, in the context of your specific work, I think it really helps us expand and understand why these types of treatments can be quite effective.

What would be the very, very first steps for somebody?

There's a little bit of space there.

How do you grab onto that little bit of space and start working with it?

Especially when

when people are starting this journey, you're you're kinda in the worst of it, right?

So how do you start making inroads when

You can't believe that there's any hope and that belief is inherent to having a placebo, quote unquote, work.
