Extremely HumanNot BrokenIn this episode, we speak with critical psychiatrist, Jon Jureidini about what it really means to be “not broken.” We explore why psychiatry often looks for simple solutions to complicated problems, how diagnosis can both help and harm, and what it looks like to support someone through tough times instead of shutting those feelings down. This episode is a reminder that not every hard experience is a medical problem—and it doesn’t mean we’re broken.
