When Your Mind Feels Like A Prison with Johnny Crowder Mar 30, 2018

Show notes

Johnny Crowder began exhibiting symptoms of mental illness at the ripe young age of 3, and it didn't let up for a decade or two. His abuse-ridden adolescence was sprinkled with suicidal thoughts, obsessive-compulsive behavior, and some pretty eye-catching acne. In short, it wasn’t pretty—and neither was he. Crowder pursued a degree in psychology from UCF—that is, until his band, Dark Sermon, got signed and he left campus to tour the universe. Although he finished his degree on the road, he learned more about the human psyche through his travels than he ever could in a classroom. After years of intense therapy and heavy medication, Crowder is now functioning healthily without the use of either. In their place, he's developed effective strategies that allow him to maintain a sound mind and body throughout his journeys with his new band, Prison, whose music addresses his difficult past and encourages others to persevere.

Welcome Dr. Mark Leeds: The Rehab Podcast Mar 28, 2018

Show notes

Dr. Mark Leeds joins us with The Rehab, a new podcast on our network that is about overcoming drug addiction. The topics range from medical treatment to spiritual fellowships and psychotherapy. Other forms of therapy will be explored as well. The underlying theme is that everyone is different and we cannot apply a single method of treatment to all people and expect it to work. Listening carefully to what works and does not work for an individual, treating people with respect and understanding that behaviors caused by addiction are the result of a medical condition are important. Patients presenting for treatment of addiction should be addressed with caring, compassion and understanding.
Dr. Leeds runs a micro medical practice by the beach in Fort Lauderdale, providing concierge medical care to the residents of the Galt Ocean Mile. He also provides medication assisted treatment (MAT) for the treatment of opioid dependence and addiction. Opioids and opiates include heroin, fentanyl, carfentanyl and many prescription analgesics.
