Transforming Mental Health Care and Diagnosis with Creativity and Self-Expression with the UnDoctor Dr. Fred Moss

In this episode, I have the great pleasure of talking with the UnDoctor, the Non-Diagnosing Psychiatrist, Author, and Podcaster Dr. Fred Moss about transforming mental health diagnosis and treatment and the importance of creativity, true self-expression, and listening to and connecting with our fellow beings. There is a general lack of authenticity and genuine relationships with ourselves and others. Many are afraid of speaking in their own true voice and of sharing what they really feel and think because they are concerned about potential consequences and repercussions. But this self-expression from the core self is vital for mental health and wellness especially since there is often a great distance between who we really are and what we show up as while often saying things that we do not actually believe. To prevent mental dysfunction and anguish and to improve overall health and well-being, we can re-discover and re-connect with our true nature and explore these aspects via the performing and visual arts and including other creative endeavors that can range from music, dancing, singing, cooking, writing, gardening, and drama to cleaning and photography. At the same time, we can try to gradually increment and incorporate our own unique voice and express our true being while also moving away from conventional methods and treatments that often include medication. Moreover, we have a lot to gain from embracing spirituality and divinity in order to see beyond our human lives and heal and be of service to others.
