Love that you addressed the difficultiesof having a relationship with a doctor. Funnily enough I'm also an artist/pharmacist, engaged to a doctor and boy is it challenging. If there is anything that can test your patience, it's that. Especially since most doctors aren't people-oriented like you, but very logical and rational, which can be a challenge for a more emotional partner. It sometimes feels like they unintentionally bury their emotional side because of all the horrors they see every day - from patients neglecting their bodies to the point of decay, to bringing the news of death to relatives.

[@nivavirdia5388]

Misophonia is the WORST - every time I’m studying in a uni library and someone pulls out food, I have to race to plug in some music or remove myself from the room before I start crying in anger.

What food actually makes us gain weight for people with high metabolism.

I would be grateful if you could solve this mystery of weight gaining.Thank you.

[@Tarrabyte]

I've dealt with it myself, a lot of times people have this disorder because they are scared of getting fat or they are depressed which turns off their stomach but they don't realize that their body needs food. That's the basic way of explaining it.

[@nancyshepard8100]

I just googled Misophonia and looked into it deeper. It brought me to tears. I have a daughter that always had trouble with certain sounds. I’ve taken her to the doctor and she’s perfect. But with certain sounds she gets really aggravated. Now, it all makes sense. Im going to test my theory and if it works my next step is to take my information to her doctor. Thank you for everything. You are such a good doctor. Many blessing and luck to you.

[@chloen.817]

Wow, I was so surprised when the misophonia question came up. I’ve suffered from this for the majority of my life and it has impacted me in unimaginable ways. Due to how rare it is, none of my psychologists or psychiatrists had ever heard of it before meeting me. I’m sure I speak for anyone with this condition when I say thank you for bringing awareness to it, and for everyone when I say thank you for using your platform to do so much good.

Thank you for addressing the biopsychosocial model of health. As a psych major, it urks me that many people have not encountered this model of health. I mean, this could be because of the replication crisis, or the inaccessibility of scientific literature. I also believe that a lot of this has to do with the encounters patients have with their doctors. There are some doctors who do recognise the the contributions of our social and psychological environment to our physical health, while others (the majority) deny or refuse the mind-body connection and the implications on treatment. Thank you for creating more awareness of this problem.

[@kayleeo7330]

I have a mind-body disorder and I agree. It’s called Amplified Musculoskeletal Pain Syndrome and it has to do with the nerves feeling pain when there is no real outside cause. It was treated with a mix of PT and psychological therapy called “pain psychology.” If it had been treated as only physical, it would have gotten much worse and pretty much encompassed my entire life.

[@musical_lolu4811]

The majority of us? Sorry, that's wrong. Even if we don't appear to you to recognise the relationship between the body and the mind, we were all trained to. We are ourselves simply stressed the fuck out by the day-to-day grind in modern healthcare, there simply isn't enough time for any of that. Screwed up schedules, ridiculous doctor to patient ratio, bureaucracy, emotional labor, burnout, you name it. Studying medicine, let alone psychiatry, isn't the same as majoring in psychology. I just had to quit the profession. Dr Mike is a family physician (and not a pediatric neurosurgeon) who looks passionate about his work, so he's extremely fortunate.

[@surajbagewadi7949]

Preach! :)

[@IshmeenSandal]

AISHAH YES!!! who's ary?

[@TFDwriting]

I'm not sure the majority of MD's in the 21st Century don't see the connection between mind and body but even if they do, the insurance and for-profit hospital systems definitely make it hard for them to carry out a psycho-social-physical treatment plan. I don't know about you, but my doc's have about 15 minutes to spend with me before they get yanked out to the next patient. Even psychiatrists are so over-booked that if they believe in a mind-body connection they don't have time to work with patients on cognitive issues; all they have time for is prescription writing. Plus... let's not forget about patient expectations. Patients have come to expect that everything from blood pressure to cancer can be controlled, if not cured, with a pill, treatment or therapy and use that as an excuse not to develop a healthy lifestyle that would improve mind, body, and spirit. In fact, Americans have come to expect that death is not inevitable. Death has become a failure of the patient's will to "fight," the physician's expertise, or a lack of research and technology. It's a messy, frustrating situation for everyone and I don't think we can point fingers at any single source of the mess; We all need to work together to get to a better place.

A lot. Although it's stressful, you learn so much about how to take care of other people. You're looked up as someone who people can turn to to help them get better. You realize there's so much we don't know yet about medicine, and it's still constantly changing. That smile you get when a patient thanks you for helping them feel better. Its just worth it.

[@vocalsunleashed]

I suffer from mental health issues and study psychology and I like how you address the mind-body connection, because it's very important for people to know the mind can influence the body and vice versa.

But it's not and I'm glad someone like you who may have some influence on people's views spreads that information 👌🏻

I'm only a premed student right now but from what I know about microbiology and immunology, Cells at Work is pretty darn medically accurate! And it's really fun to watch :) Oh, and another medical doctor on youtube (Dr. Hope's Sick Notes) has reacted to two episodes and really loves it!

[@ShannonThePaperBoy]

Hi Dr. Mike! To answer why I love Cells At Work, it's a really interesting way of doing science communication that I think works really well!! I love science communication in the form of comics and cartoons. I was already a fan of anime (less so in my adult years, because I'm busier than I used to be and just dont have the time to sit down and watch a lot of anime) but this one really caught my eye because its educational and informative without feeling too textbooky or overly embellished to the point of feeling purely fictitious and hurting the communication. I love the characters and its fun to imagine the cells living in your own body living their own lives working hard to keep you healthy. It makes me want to do a better job of taking care of my own body. :) I hope you enjoy it when you watch it! It's a very endearing show!

'Cells at work' is honestly the most educational animation series. Based around the human body , how the cells in your body react to germs infects, viruses , disease and allergenic reactions with learnering about the cells &germs(what is its job) ... And ...its an Anime 🤷🏾‍♀️

I had never heard of Cells at Work before reading comments on this channel, but from what you say it makes me think about "Once Upon a Time... Life" that I watched as a kid in the late 80's/early 90's as a kid in France (according to wikipedia it was broadcasted in other countries too) I guess I should check it out

[@emilyslaton2100]

My fiancé is a second year medical student and I’m finishing my master’s (we dated for four years prior) and it’s quite challenging sometimes. He is extremely busy as expected but I think in order to date a medical student you have to be independent and understanding of their extremely busy schedules. Sometimes I have gone an entire month without seeing him and I have to be understanding of that. (He currently lives 1.5 hours away too). He’s also almost constantly stressed so I think being able to be supportive really helps your partner too if you’re dating a med student. He literally called me on the phone 8 times today because he was so stressed about a huge test he just took for OMM. Anyways, hope this helps!

I love the question about the physical diagnosis being a mental diagnosis. It’s actually amazing you went into detail about how the mind and body work together. I am on track to becoming a social worker and am very intrigued on how medical professionals come up with treatment when there are so many factors included. For example the environment a patient is in, their perspective on modern medicine and health care access. Keep up the extraordinary work Dr.Mike! You really seem to want to continue learning and are passionate to your field of work. If social workers and health care professionals could learn off each other more often, it will help us give each other more perspectives on different approaches we can treat both mental health and overall health since they work alongside each other. All in all, give our patients/clients the care they deserve to be the best versions of themselves.

I've been a nurse for almost 25 years. The evolution of the nurse doctor relationship in my small rural hospital has been amazing. For example, In nursing school, we were not allowed to ask a physician a question and they were allowed to humiliate you without consequences. We still have some older doctors like this, but the change to a true collaborative relationship over this time is amazing. Do you think it is the training or the generation change? Interested about your thoughts.

[@6hermosojohnchristian779]

Its most likely the older generation encouraging that. I cant stress the importance of being nice to your nurses, and in doing so making patient care much more efficient. Both jobs have different roles and are both equally as important.

[@ems7623]

I've often wondered if the nursing and doctor professions should be completely integrated. Why shouldn't doctors get some initial experience as a nurse before progressing into medical school to become a generalist or specialist? And why should nurses have a completely separate career trajectory ending in APNs or NPs? Hell, NPs and PAs are close to functioning as medical residents anyways. Surely that's a good proving ground before launching into a medical fellowship. But ... This would never transpire. The educational institutions aren't set up this way. For that matter I don't entirely understand why allied health is a third set of career trajectories, but at least there's some ability to change careers between the allied health professions and nursing after completing an associates degree and getting some experience.

About Cells at Work, the answer to your question is it’s both. It’s an anime and I love it and it’s also a very unique way to portray medical issues and what happens in the human body when things like illness, bacteria, disease, and infections happen. It’s funny but also it explains everything in a very unique way and watching I think it’s pretty accurate but I’m not a doctor so I’d really like you to see it and get your opinion. And it’s not anything you would expect. I’m sure you’d expect it to be a anime medical drama like a anime version of grey’s anatomy. It’s not like that at all, I’m sure you will be surprised. Anyway can’t wait to see you watch it!!

[@user-ue2sj1wt5n]

Cells at work is a great show because it takes a lot of concepts on health and medicine and it tells it in a really entertaining way, the show itself was written to be scientifically accurate, so a lot of viewers would like it if you reacted to the episodes and you elaborated on a lot of the concepts that are shown in the show. Hope that helps. :)

[@Kaimli]

"the show itself was written to be scientifically accurate" but why do the bacterias bleed then..? I mean I get its about telling it in a dramatic anime way but.. if your main characters are literally blood cells...

[@user-ue2sj1wt5n]

Ofc there is going to be creative liberties taken, but it's assumed most people watching are capable of recognising that cells do not talk, and they do not look like humans and that bacteria do not bleed. The fundamental ideas behind it though, like the responsibilities of the cells, their tools/features, are consistent with our understanding of cell biology. You shouldn't go into this show looking for a 100 % educational explanation of the human body, the show is aiming to first entertain and then to give the viewer highlights of a lot of the cool things that happen inside our bodies.

[@sailorarwen6101]

I know you’re asking him, but after working with many doctors I have to give my two cents. In my opinion, anyone can be a good doctor, but should they be? Probably 90% of doctors have terrible communication skills and don’t know how to convince patients they really care and are listening. I work with many doctors and most of them are fine people once you get to know them. Here’s an example of a common issue I see: Dr Mike sort of mentioned this in the video, but, often, people have multiple problems and they all think it’s one thing. The doctor will say, “no they’re not connected,” but never explain why and that makes the patient upset. Every time. Anyone can go to school and study medicine. A doctor can be a genius, and still be a good doctor, but that lack of patience and attentiveness will break that connection you should have with your patients.
