How to Diagnose Bipolar Disorder with Dr. Phelps: Hypomania, Mixed States & the Clues DSM Misses

mardi 15 septembre 2026 • Durée 01:05:05

Diagnosing bipolar disorder is rarely as simple as finding a clear episode of hypomania. Dr. Phelps explains why bipolarity is better understood across a mood spectrum and walks through the clues that can help distinguish bipolar depression from unipolar depression: age of onset, family history, course of illness, treatment response, cyclicity, and collateral history. We also dig into mixed states, the “four A’s” of anxiety, anger, agitation, and attention problems, antidepressant activation, the HCL-32, and the Bipolarity Index. The larger theme is diagnostic humility: uncertainty is often appropriate, and treatment decisions should reflect both the strength of the evidence and the risks of getting the diagnosis wrong.

Lindsay Clancy Case: Biggest Misconceptions After the Mistrial Explained by a Forensic Psychiatrist

mercredi 9 septembre 2026 • Durée 01:07:02

Lindsay Clancy’s insanity defense is the focus of this forensic psychiatry follow-up after the mistrial. We revisit the case through the lens of legal insanity, postpartum psychosis, malingering, criminal responsibility, and the difference between a legal conclusion and a moral judgment. We also discuss why psychosis cannot be reduced to a single reported voice, how forensic psychiatrists think about exaggeration versus malingering, questions around expert testimony and diagnosis, and the relationship between psychosis and violence. Finally, we look at medication nonadherence, culpability, how uncommon the insanity defense may be, and what questions arise when someone is found not guilty by reason of insanity.

Lindsay Clancy Trial: A Forensic Psychiatrist Explains Psychosis, Malingering, & the Insanity Defense

mardi 1 septembre 2026 • Durée 58:58

Lindsay Clancy postpartum psychosis and the insanity defense are examined through a forensic psychiatry lens in this episode. We discuss how psychiatrists distinguish psychosis from malingering, whether someone can be psychotic while still appearing organized, command hallucinations, delusions, altruistic filicide, and what criminal responsibility actually asks. We also look at Dr. Philip Resnick’s testimony, Clancy’s psychiatric treatment, fragmented care, collateral information, and the limits of ruling out bipolar disorder after a brief evaluation. Finally, we explore why the case has produced such intense public reactions and why psychiatry often requires tolerating uncertainty rather than forcing complex patients or cases into simple categories.

Affective Neuroscience: Understanding Patients Beyond DSM Diagnoses

mardi 25 août 2026 • Durée 59:50

Affective neuroscience in psychiatry may offer a better way to understand patients who do not fit neatly into DSM categories. Dr. White joins us to explain Jaak Panksepp’s seven primary emotional systems, the difference between affect and emotion, and how subcortical emotional arousal interacts with cortical regulation. We discuss anger, borderline personality disorder, cognitive decline, mindfulness, ACT, emotional blunting with SSRIs, and why some cases labeled treatment-resistant depression may need a better formulation rather than another medication. We also get into the neuroscience behind the model… from decortication and brain-stimulation studies to TMS… and ask what psychiatry loses when diagnosis comes before understanding affect.Dr. White’s Substack:

The Psychology of Seinfeld: What’s Really Wrong With George, Kramer, Jerry & Elaine?

mercredi 19 août 2026 • Durée 57:38

We put the Seinfeld cast on the proverbial couch, not to slap diagnoses on fictional characters, but to show why personality formulation can tell us far more than a psychiatric label.

Is George a vulnerable narcissist, borderline, or something more complicated? Does Jerry’s obsession with cleanliness and order actually resemble OCD or an obsessive-compulsive personality style? Could Kramer meet criteria for antisocial personality disorder despite being charming, affectionate, and largely nonviolent? And is Elaine secretly the healthiest person in the group?

Along the way, we explore flanderization, narcissism, borderline personality organization, obsessive-compulsive personality traits, psychopathy versus antisocial personality disorder, gambling disorder, and the DSM-5 Alternative Model for Personality Disorders.

Mood Stabilizers for Bipolar Disorder: Lithium, Lamotrigine, Depakote & More

mardi 28 juillet 2026 • Durée 01:01:57

Mood stabilizers for bipolar disorder can be confusing because lithium, lamotrigine, Depakote, carbamazepine, and oxcarbazepine have very different strengths, risks, and clinical roles. In this episode, two psychiatrists break down how they think about maintenance treatment, lithium dosing and monitoring, common side effects, lab levels, toxicity counseling, and medication interactions. They also compare Depakote for mania, lamotrigine for bipolar depression, carbamazepine’s interaction burden, and the potential role of oxcarbazepine. Along the way, they discuss combination treatment, diagnostic uncertainty, pregnancy and fertility considerations, rash counseling, and why effective bipolar care requires focusing on long-term episode prevention rather than the symptom of the day.

Dr. Jim Phelps’ Bipolar Treatment Tier List: Lessons from 30+ Years in Psychiatry

jeudi 23 juillet 2026 • Durée 01:12:22

Bipolar disorder treatment is put to the test in this clinically grounded tier list with psychiatrist Jim Phelps. He and Dr. Malzberg rank low-dose lithium, lamotrigine, social rhythm therapy, dark therapy, dawn simulators, antidepressants, carbamazepine, supplements, ketogenic diet, mood tracking, and group psychoeducation. Along the way, they discuss why sleep and circadian rhythm belong in the mood stabilizer conversation, how antidepressants may worsen cycling or mixed states, and why the long-term goal is not simply treating the mood of the day. The episode also explores practical adherence, bipolar comorbidity, passive sleep tracking, and underused nonmedication approaches.

Anxiety Medications Tier List: The Best and Worst Treatments for GAD

mardi 14 juillet 2026 • Durée 01:03:05

Anxiety medications tier list: two psychiatrists rank the treatments they actually use for generalized anxiety disorder… and the ones they avoid. The discussion covers first-line SSRIs, why buspirone may be underrated, when benzodiazepines can help or harm, and how to think about mirtazapine, hydroxyzine, propranolol, gabapentin, pregabalin, quetiapine, and bupropion. Just as important, the episode argues that “anxiety” is not a diagnosis: re-diagnosis, mindfulness, CBT and ACT principles, exercise, reducing caffeine or stimulants, and understanding avoidance may matter more than adding another prescription. The result is a practical, opinionated guide to anxiety treatment that combines evidence, clinical experience, side effects, dependence risk, and long-term recovery.

Psychodynamic Technique and Therapeutic Intervention: Mirroring, Clarification, Confrontation, Interpretation

mardi 30 juin 2026 • Durée 40:02

Psychodynamic therapy interventions are the focus of this episode, organized through a practical levels framework for clinicians. Dr. Fu and Dr. Greg break down empathic mirroring as a way to keep the patient’s narrative moving, clarification as a tool for deepening detail, confrontation as a gentle way to point out patterns or discrepancies, and interpretation as the rare intervention that should come only after enough groundwork. Along the way, they connect these skills to diagnostic interviewing, medication management, forensic psychiatry, therapeutic alliance, and the difference between helping a patient talk more and pushing too quickly toward insight.
