Dr. Gartner and Dr. Siegel recount the origins of Shrinking Trump, which initially focused on Donald’s cognitive decline and psychological disorders. Now, they have shifted their focus to understanding how Trump's new term affects the nation’s psyche and what it means for the future. Former Congressman and long-time Trump critic Joe Walsh joins the show to share his insights into what has transpired and what might lie ahead. Walsh touches upon Trump's potential for deep-seated vendettas against democratic institutions and the personal nature of his political vendettas. He reassures listeners that even though Trump will try to consolidate power, the structures within American democracy are stronger than most people think. Joe also stresses the urgency for resistance and remaining vigilant against the erosion of our democracy. You’ll hear about some important coping mechanisms to deal with the feelings of anxiety, dread, and powerlessness in the face of Trump's renewed power. Our hosts stress the importance of finding solace in personal relationships, developing a support system, and taking the time to nurture your mental health as vital strategies to brace for the uncertainty ahead. And Dr. Gartner announces he is writing an exciting new book about his exploration of psilocybin therapy, and calls for innovative approaches to mental well-being, and enlightenment during dark times. Dr. Gartner, Dr. Siegel, and Joe implore our listeners to remain committed to democracy and their own mental health. As we embark on this new chapter, our hosts reaffirm their dedication to guiding folks through unprecedented times with clarity, empathy, and hope.
